A quick look at The Equalizer plot and cast
The Equalizer follows an enigmatic woman named Robyn McCall, known for her vigilante actions. She helps people find justice by helping them find missing persons and solving complex cases.
A former CIA officer, McCall uses her past experience as she sets out on a profound path to redemption. Take a look at a short synopsis of the show, as per Rotten Tomatoes:
''Robert McCall is a retired secret agent. Having become disillusioned by all the rigamarole that comes with secret agenting, McCall starts to look out for the little guy. Calling himself "The Equalizer," McCall puts ads in the paper marketing to desperate people in desperate situations.''
The synopsis further states,
''McCall usually takes these cases for little or no money (he lives in a posh Manhattan apartment). Acting as both bodyguard and investigator, sometimes using his government resources, McCall usually manages to save the day.''
The character of Robyn McCall defines the thematic elements of the show and Queen Latfiah's performance in the lead role further elevates it to a different level altogether. She brilliantly embodies her character's raw charisma and determination with absolute perfection.
Other important cast members include actors like Tory Kittles as Marcus Dante, Liza Lapira as Melody "Mel" Bayani, Adam Goldberg as Harry Keshegian, and Lorraine Toussaint as Viola, among many others.
