Sony/Columbia have debuted first image of
Denzel Washington in
The Equalizer, the upcoming big-screen take on the 1980s TV show.
Two-time Oscar winner Washington plays Robert McCall:
a solitary, monastic figure who hates injustice and devotes himself to helping people who are being victimized. With a no-nonsense attitude, compassion and experience with dealing with a wide variety of situations he’s a powerful and useful detective.
The next year’s action thriller will re-team Washington with his
Training Day director,
Antoine Fuqua, and co-stars include
Chloe Grace Moretz, Marton Csokas, Haley Bennett, Johnny Messner and
Robert Wahlberg.
Scripted by
Richard Wenk and
Alex Siskind,
The Equalizer went through several incarnations over the past few years with both
Nicolas Winding Refn and
Rupert Wyatt dropping off the picture.
An update on the popular 1980s CBS series is scheduled to come out on September 26th, 2014.
