New 'The Equalizer 3' Image: Denzel Washington Is Taking Out the Mafia
The Big Picture In times when franchise and IP-based material aim to run for perpetuity, Denzel Washington and director Antoine Fuqua are ready to put The Equalizer films to bed with the upcoming third and final movie. The long-running series features Washington as Robert McCall, a retired U.S. Marine and former DIA officer, who isn’t afraid to impose his own brand of justice when his loved ones are threatened.
"I don’t see another one in it for me," Fuqua said in a new interview with Total Film magazine about The Equalizer 3, adding, "From my conversations with Denzel, this is the final one [for him] as well.” The trilogy, which kicked off in 2014, is loosely based on the 1980s TV series of the same name and is helmed by Fuqua from scripts by Richard Wenk, who returns for the final installment.
A new accompanying image sees McCall with a rifle in his hand aiming at a goon on the floor, while the bodies in the background affirm his ever-increasing kill count. “He’s a little darker," Fuqua says of McCall’s changed attitude in the upcoming feature. "He has to find his way back to the light." The Equalizer 3 will see McCall in Italy, searching for peace and solace from his brutal past.
Robert McCall Has a New Threat to Face Speaking of the Italian Mafia, the director revealed that a lot of them are “the younger-generation type. They’re a little edgier, a little more aggressive.” Adding that the situation feels dangerous “because it’s not just drugs and stuff. You’re dealing with terrorists even more now.
