First Trailer for Denzel Washington's THE EQUALIZER Adaption

Sadly absent from the big-screen since August's Mark Wahlberg co-starrer 2 Guns, Denzel and his Training Day director Antoine Fuqua are re-teaming with their bloody adaption of the CBS TV series that ran for 4 years back in the late 1980s. 

Joining Washington are Chloe Grace Moretz (CARRIE, Let the Right One In) and Melissa Leo (The Fighter, OBLIVION) with frequent-baddie Marton Csokas (XxX, The Amazing Spider-Man 2) as the antagnost.

The film looks pretty sick, and considering Washington is the go-to guy for brooding and badass action with such hits as Man on Fire and Safe House it comes as no surprise that Sony is already developing a sequel after test-screenings indicate this is their most highly-recieved R-rated film in the studios' history. 

 In "The Equalizer," Denzel Washington plays McCall, a former black ops commando who has faked his death to live a quiet life in Boston. When he comes out of his self-imposed retirement to rescue a young girl, Teri (Chloл Grace Moretz), he finds himself face to face with ultra-violent Russian gangsters. As he serves vengeance against those who brutalize the helpless, McCall's desire for justice is reawakened. If someone has a problem, the odds are stacked against them, and they have nowhere else to turn, McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.

The Equalizer releases September 26, 2014.
