The Equalizer is set to return for its highly anticipated third season, exclusively on Universal TV.

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.

The new season consists of 18, one-hour episodes airing every Friday at 6pm from 29 March 2024 on Universal TV (DStv channel 117/ GOtv channel 138). Episodes will be available on demand through Universal+ immediately thereafter.

Season 3 picks up after the tumultuous and nerve-wracking 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, she will have to face a whole new set of challenges when she escapes her captors.

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 addition of Logue follows Robyn’s mentor Bishop being killed by her longtime nemesis Mason Quinn (Chris Vance). Similarly to Bishop, Colton is a powerful and connected agent who navigates in the shadows. His connection to Robyn is as yet unknown…

The third season of The Equalizer premieres on March 29 at 6pm, exclusively on Universal TV, with new episodes every Friday. Episodes will also be available on Universal+. 

Universal TV is available on DStv channel 117 and GOtv channel 138.
