It was only a little more than six years ago that we were discussing here at borg the first trailer for the first reboot of The Equalizer. What would become two major action blockbusters starred Denzel Washington as Robert McCall, a role originally cast in the 1980s by British actor Edward Woodward in a successful four-season television series. Denzel proved exactly what we believed: What made McCall’s character had nothing to do with the color of his skin. In fact Washington’s retired former special ops operative was one of the best badass action characters to hit the big screen in the past decade–Washington truly made the character his own. Next month the series gets its second reboot as Queen Latifah fills in the shoes as lead heroine, playing not Robert but Robyn McCall in the new network TV series The Equalizer. Check out the trailer for the series below.
