Denzel Washington is whipping out the action once again in The Equalizer 3. This time around he heads to Italy and faces off with a vicious mafia. There will be loads of action sequences and big fight scenes in true Equalizer fashion. Let's take a look at some great facts about the movie.

Before it was developed into a movie franchise, The Equalizer was a TV show in the 1980s starring Edward Woodward as Robert McCall. McCall was a household name and the character was well-loved.

Robert McCall is the only character Denzel Washington has played for a third time in the history of his acting career. Equalizer fans love the fact that he keeps coming back for more!

Actress Dakota Fanning and Denzel Washington reunited almost 20 years after the movie Man of Fire. In The Equalizer 3, Fanning plays a CIA agent alongside Washington's character. Fanning and Denzel's daughter also went to NYU together.

Clay Donahue Fontenot was Washington's stunt double in the movie and they bear a close resemblance. Fontenot has been a stunt double for many leading Hollywood stars, including Wesley Snipes in the movie Blade. 

Filming took place on location in Rome and Campania and this perfectly captured the setting the film was going for.
