When you have Denzel Washington as your leading man, you need a suitably sneaky threat to go up against him. And the producers of the Equalizer sequel think they have their man in Pedro Pascal.
With Antoine Fuqua back in the director's chair, the film is largely being kept quiet beyond the fact that Washington will return as Robert McCall, a former special ops agent who reluctantly trades a quiet life for helping the helpless.
Last time out, he took on a Russian syndicate, but there are no details yet on what Pascal will be doing to get on McCall's radar. You've got to assume it'll be something criminal...
Fuqua is gearing up to direct the movie, which is already targeting a 14 September, 2018 release date. As for Pascal, he's on the side of justice for his next film, playing one of the Statesmen in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, due in the UK on 20 September.
