In The Equalizer 2, director Antoine Fuqua gave Denzel Washington’s character a new ability he called “Equalizer Vision.” Basically, it allowed Washington’s Robert McCall to instantly find every weapon’s location in a room and know how to use it effectively. The action film made $190 million at the box office. So did The Equalizer 3. Now Washington is using his “Equalizer Vision” to foresee another two films in his future.

“I told them I would do another Equalizer, and we’re doing four and five,” Washington told Esquire in our latest cover story. Many fans believed that Equalizer 3 marked the official finale to the Equalizer trilogy. According to Washington, there’s not just one but two more Equalizers in the works.

“More people are happy about that—people love those daggone Equalizers,” Washington continued. “But I’ve come to realize that the Equalizer films are for me, too, because they’re for the people. They want me to go get the bad guys. ‘We can’t get them, so you go get them.’ And I say, Okay, I’ll get them! Just wait right there. I’ll be right back!”

As Washington is the first to break the news, there’s no word yet on when either Equalizer sequel will premiere in theaters. Audiences can probably bet that Fuqua will return to work on both installments in some capacity. The director left Washington’s character retired at the end of The Equalizer 3—but there’s always another mission to pull our hero back in.
