Denzel Washington is stepping into some familiar shoes for his new project. The 68-year-old reprises his role as the justice-driven Robert McCall for “The Equalizer 3”, the final entry in the film adaptation of the ’80s television series of the same name.
“The Equalizer” films star Washington as a retired U.S. Marine and former Dia officer, whose desire to dole out justice in his own way and help those being oppressed often pulls him back into dangerous missions. The first premiered in theaters in 2014 and the second in 2018.
“It’s unfinished business,” Washington tells Et when asked what inspired his return to the film series at 2023’s CinemaCon. “You know, the doormen in my building in New York, they love this guy. I talk to them about other films [and] they’re like, ‘Oh yeah, ‘Fences’, yeah, good movie. But when is the next [‘Equalizer’?]’ I’m like, ‘Why do you love him?...
