Marking as the second reboot in the franchise after the 2014 film, and 2018 sequel, The Equalizer is a reboot of a 1980s series with the same name. Richard Lindheim, with Michael Sloan, are the co-creators as well as the exec producers of the show. Unfortunately, in January 2021, Lindheim died due to heart failure while working on the show. The premiere of its first season is dedicated to the late creator. The Equalizer has garnered mixed reviews from the audience and critics. Some claim that the show has lost its touch. However, some still watch it with excitement. It’s no doubt that the number of fans is definitely more than the critics. Hence, the show is coming back with another season. The Equalizer Season 1 debuted on February 7, 2021. And it premiered its finale a couple of days ago. Now that The Equalizer season 2 is in development, fans will love to see Robyn McCall back into action.
The Equalizer Season 2 Release Date – Is The Show Renewed?
The Equalizer Season 2 got renewed in March 2021. So, you don’t need to worry about it getting canceled. However, determining the release date is a hard task at the moment. The first season of the show had just concluded. So, it will be quite hard for the show to come with another season instantly.
But, to keep their fans on the toes, CBS has released a new teaser video for season 2. It features the show’s frontwoman, Queen Latifah, as she drops swag with her character, Robyn McCal. The filming of season 1 was halted because of COVID-19. Even in 2021, the show faced some hardships while filming the episodes. But, we hope that season 2 production goes smoothly. We can expect season 2 to release by the beginning of 2022. Until then, check out the message recorded by Queen Latifah for her fans.

We expect to see all of the principal cast reprise their roles in the upcoming installment.
