Sony has announced a September 1st, 2023 release date for The Equalizer 3 which will see Denzel Washington and director Antione Fuqua.
Washington first starred as former CIA operative Robert McCall in Fuqua’s 2014 The Equalizer and reprised the role in 2018 for The Equalizer 2, again directed by Fuqua. The franchise is based on the 1980s TV series where McNall put his services out to help those who could not help themselves by acting as an investigator and protector for those in danger.
The first two Equalizer films were written by Richard Wenk and while Washington confirmed a few weeks ago the script for The Equalizer 3 was completed, it has not yet been announced if Wenk also returned for the third film alongside Washington and Fuqua.
In the interval between The Equalizer 2 and 3, a separate reboot of The Equalizer began airing on CBS with Queen Latifah as Robyn McCall. The show is currently in its second season.
The Equalizer 3 will begin production later this year.
