ACTION-PACKED drama, Equalizer returns to the small screen exclusively on Universal TV (DStv channel 117) for the third season set to premiere on March 29.
The show stars Queen Latifah as Robyn McCall, Lorraine Toussaint as Viola “Aunt Vi” Marsette, Tory Kittles as detective Marcus Dante, Adam Goldberg as Harry Keshegian, Liza Lapira as Melody “Mel” Bayani and Laya DeLeon Hayes as Delilah.
In a statement, Universal TV said the new season consists of 18, one-hour episodes airing every Friday at 20:00hrs Central African Time, adding that the episodes will be available on demand through Universal+ immediately thereafter.
“Season 3 picks up after the tumultuous and nerve-racking Season 2 finale that saw Robyn McCall get abducted in front of her daughter Delilah and Aunt Vi. As someone who has worked hard to keep her family and work life separate, Robyn McCall will have to face a whole new set of challenges when she escapes her captors,” read part of the statement.
“Donal Logue (Sons of Anarchy, Vikings) guest stars as Colton Fisk, one of the CIA’s most decorated agents, an ex-CIA union chief in the Middle East during the 1990s. Empowered with a Tier 5 security clearance (the highest possible) he was part of the intelligence team that took out Bin Laden, and for many years he ran “The Farm” (the CIA training base in Virginia).”
The statement further notes that the addition of Donal Logue follows Robyn McCall’s mentor Bishop being killed by her longtime nemesis Mason Quinn (Chris Vance).
Similarly to Bishop, Colton Fisk is noted as a powerful and connected agent who navigates in the shadows. His connection to Robyn McCall is as yet unknown.
