Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning patch things up in the first photos from The Equalizer 3 as production begins. Denzel Washington started a new film franchise in 2014 with The Equalizer, a collaboration with director Antoine Fuqua. His first film as Robert McCall received mixed reviews, however, the film grossed almost $200 million units worldwide for Sony Pictures.
The production company took its time working to develop Denzel Washington’s first sequel, as Even the Equalizer 2 was released four years later to critical and financial success. Denzel Washington as well as Antonie Fuqua’s franchise is officially proceeding with Equalizer 3, which will be released in September 2023.
One of the more exciting developments in the threequel was who might appear alongside Denzel. Dakota Fanning has joined the cast of The Equalizer 3, but her role has not yet been revealed. Dakota Fanning’s casting sparked excitement because of her previous collaboration with Denzel in 2004’s Man of Fire, which was one of Tony Scott’s best films. Denzel’s character was hired as a secret service agent for Dakota’s character in that film, letting them form a strong bond. Denzel Washington as well as Dakota Fanning haven’t ever worked together again, despite their outstanding on-screen chemistry.
The Equalizer 3 is currently in production, and Sony has released pictures of the crew and actors together just to commemorate the start of filmmaking. This included many pictures of Denzel Washington as well as Dakota Fanning reuniting 18 years after the release of Man on Fire. In a few photos, they are decided to join by director Antoine Fuqua but also new co-star Gaia Scodellaro.
Equalizer 3 Is The Perfect Man on Fire Reunion
Since the ending of Man on Fire left no room for more stories or collaborative partnerships for Denzel Washington as well as Dakota Fanning, The Equalizer 3 is an ideal place to reunite the two actors. The Equalizer franchise is based on Denzel Washington’s Robert McCall assisting young people in trouble, with Chlo Grace Moretz, as well as Ashton Sanders, filling that role in the first two films. Equalizer 3 may now use its Man on Fire homecoming casting to put Denzel Washington in such a position to protect and can save Dakota Fanning’s character.
With Dakota Fanning and also Denzel Washington reuniting for The Equalizer 3, it will be interesting to see what other similarities the film has to Man on Fire. If The Equalizer 3 is intended to be the final installment in the franchise, viewers could see a Denzel Washington character pass away to save Dakota Johnson’s character. Of course, there will be numerous differences, particularly since it has been nearly two decades since they last decided to share the screen.
