The Equalizer season 4: next episode info, cast and everything we know about the series

Queen Latifah as Robyn McCall with her hands up in The Equalizer.

Even as Denzel Washington’s cinematic version of The Equalizer 3 premiered in the fall of 2023, there is a lot of anticipation about what happens next in the television realm of the show, The Equalizer season 4. 

In season 3, viewers watched Robyn McCall’s (Queen Latifah) career as a tough vigilante bleed into her personal life. Despite trying her hardest to keep the two worlds separate, she was unsuccessful as her family life forever changed. However, even in the face of all this, she remained committed to getting justice for her clients, which viewers can continue to see her do in the new episodes. 

Here’s everything we know about The Equalizer season 4.  

The next episode of The Equalizer season 4

"McCall races to help Dante and Big Ben (Danny Johnson) after they are ambushed by a group of suspicious attackers and a major family secret is revealed.

The Equalizer season 4 plot

The core of the show since its inception has been about Robyn McCall leading a team to provide a form of vigilante justice for her clients who can’t get such through legal means. 

The official synopsis of the series is as follows: 

"Robyn McCall, an enigmatic woman with a mysterious background, uses her extensive skills to help those with nowhere else to turn. McCall comes across to most as an average single mom who is quietly raising her teenage daughter. But to a trusted few, she is ‘The Equalizer’ -- an anonymous guardian angel and defender of the downtrodden, who's also dogged in her pursuit of personal redemption."
