A quick look at The Equalizer plot and cast
The high-octane thriller drama show focuses on protagonist Robyn McCall, who worked as a former CIA officer. She uses all her experience during her stint with the CIA in order to help people.
''THE EQUALIZER is a reimagining of the classic series starring Academy Award® nominee and multi-hyphenate Queen Latifah (“Chicago,” “Bessie”) as Robyn McCall, an enigmatic woman with a mysterious background who uses her extensive skills as a former CIA operative to help those with nowhere else to turn. McCall presents to most as an average single mom who is quietly raising her teenage daughter.''
The synopsis further reads:
''But to a trusted few, she is The Equalizer – an anonymous guardian angel and defender of the downtrodden, who’s also dogged in her pursuit of personal redemption. Robyn’s clandestine work and her personal life collide when her smart and observant daughter, Delilah, and her aunt Vi, who lives with Robyn to help her balance life as a working mother, discover her secret career as a vigilante.''
Queen Latifah stars in the lead role as Robyn, and her raw charisma and screen presence define the tone of the series.
