The Equalizer is a gritty action-thriller directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Denzel Washington as Robert McCall, a retired intelligence operative living a quiet life in Boston. When he encounters a young woman in trouble, McCall is drawn back into a world of violence, using his particular set of skills to deliver justice to those who prey on the helpless. With its stylish action sequences and slow-burning tension, the film blends character-driven drama with explosive, vigilante justice.

The film is loosely based on the 1980s TV series The Equalizer, which starred Edward Woodward in the title role.
Denzel Washington and director Antoine Fuqua previously worked together on Training Day—a performance that earned Washington an Academy Award.
Washington performed many of his own stunts in the film, including the hand-to-hand combat scenes, which were choreographed to feel calculated and realistic.
The character of McCall times his fights using a stopwatch, a detail that wasn’t in the original script but was added by Washington and Fuqua to emphasize his precision.
The success of the film led to two sequels, making The Equalizer Washington’s first major franchise as a lead actor.
