Sony PicturesThe Equalizer 3 is the final chapter of Denzel Washington’s Robert McCall story — here’s a full rundown of the cast and characters.
Odds against you? Nowhere to turn? Then call Denzel Washington, aka The Equalizer. In 2014, he made his debut in the violent, awesome reboot of the beloved ’80s TV series, dispatching Russian goons and anyone else who stood in his way with an assortment of weaponry – including a corkscrew and barbed wire.
He returned four years later for the sequel, an altogether broader movie that saw McCall become entangled in a government conspiracy that sees one of his closest friends murdered.
Washington reprised the role in The Equalizer 3, one of 2023’s best movies, and the last film in the franchise – so, here’s everyone you need to know in the cast.

Speaking to Screen Rant, director Antoine Fuqua described the movie as McCall’s “final masterpiece of violence.”

Dakota Fanning: Emma Collins

Fanning memorably starred alongside Washington in Man on Fire. “We watched Dakota grow up, and Man on Fire was so fantastic… to be able to put them together again as a director and sit back and see the dynamic between the two,” Fuqua told Looper.
“I would yell ‘cut’ to see Denzel look at me and laugh and go, ‘She’s a grownup now.’ He couldn’t believe it either. She’s challenging him in the scenes. It was really special to be able to do that.”
