Here's exactly what the actor told us about his post-Macbeth plans for 2022: The trail has been cold for a few years now, with The Equalizer 2 hitting theaters in 2018, until Collider's Steve Weintraub sat down with the Oscar-winner to discuss The Tragedy of Macbeth and learned, uh, The Equalizer 3 might be Washington's very next film. I mean, she’s a great actress, but you meet people-she’s just like-she’s incredible.Director Antoine Fuqua's The Equalizer and The Equalizer 2both belong in the rare but hallowed subgenre of " Denzel Washington beating the shit out of people," so needless to say we've eagerly kept our ears to the ground for any news of a third entry. “So, that’s how it sort of happened and then I met with her and I loved her as soon as I walked in the room and met her. “I think I was talking to Denzel, we were on the phone just talking about and Man on Fire came up, talking about and we had talked about birthday was coming, I believe, and Dakota came up and I was, “How old is Dakota now?” And we were like, “Oh yeah, she’s about the right age,” and I said, “That would be cool to bring her back,”” the filmmaker explained. Fuqua has since offered some insight into how this reunion came to be, revealing that it was due to a conversation between himself and Washington about the 2004 Tony Scott directed action thriller.
