Denzel Washington In The Shadows In The Equalizer New Poster

This October Justice is coming, as Robert McCall the one man who waged war on crime in New York during the 1980’s television now coming to big screen near you, The Equalizer. With the first trailer  just around the corner we get our first  look at the film’s first stylish international poster and our one man army is in the shadows.

Sadly the great Edward Woodward who played the iconic titular  character in the cult TV show is no longer with us and now the baton of the retire ex-military officer atoning for his past sins helping the helpless now falls to Denzel Washington. Now former Black ops  faking his death for a quieter life  but quietly helping as a vigilante  who comes to the aide of an young prostitute (Chloe Grace Moretz) actions that find him in trouble with the local Russian Mafia, even rogue CIA agents who want to kill him too.

Antoine  Fuqua  is in charge of bringing  The Equalizer into the 21st century and apart from Washington playing the lead role who seems to be the type of character who could go into a crowded room and take everyone out no problem. He looks perfect for this role and Washington as we know can play that ruthless character willing to do anything but also have a conscience at the same time. The poster is somehow a homage to the original TV Show  logo which we saw Woodward’s silhouette enough to know who he is and he’s lurking in the shadows keeping eye on those criminals.You can see in the new poster it’s Denzel Washington’s silhouette , check the original logo below then the new poster.

The Equalizer is set for 10th October release in UK.
