There’s no person left making motion films like Antoine Fuqua. The inheritor obvious to Tony Scott, Fuqua’s movies are lean, imply, and defiantly R-rated, and his newest, The Equalizer 3, is not any exception (learn our evaluation). I’ve been interviewing Fuqua just about since I began on the location, and he’s at all times been one of many nicest, friendliest guys to speak to. I’ve at all times admired his kick-ass motion flicks, so in our fast interview, we went proper into how he feels about staging hardcore motion scenes which might be the other of the extra polished sort we usually see in Hollywood.
In our chat, Fuqua went into who he thinks may play a younger Robert McCall if Denzel Washington decides to name it a day after this trilogy wraps. I blew his thoughts a bit once I instructed John David Washington. He additionally instructed me that they’re able to go so far as The Terminal Listing Season 2 goes and that they’re simply ready for the strikes to settle, with all of the places already scouted out. It’s a disgrace I solely acquired a couple of minutes with Fuqua, as I may simply have chatted with him for for much longer. I’ve at all times wished to choose his mind about how he transitioned from music video to director, together with his first movie, The Substitute Killers, nonetheless rating as maybe star Chow Yun-Fats’s greatest all-around American movie.
You’ll be able to catch The Equalizer 3 in theaters beginning tomorrow evening. Belief me once I say it’s a extremely satisfying finish to Denzel Washington’s solely trilogy.
