The story shifts from random acts of kindness—such as retrieving a kidnapped girl in Turkey or helping a neighbor—to a deeply personal mission. When his longtime friend and former CIA colleague, Susan Plummer (played by Melissa Leo ), is murdered while investigating an apparent murder-suicide in Brussels, McCall embarks on a relentless quest for vengeance.
The 2018 action thriller is a direct sequel to the 2014 film, marking the first time in his legendary career that Denzel Washington reprised a role. Directed by Antoine Fuqua, the film transitions Robert McCall from a hardware store clerk to a Lyft driver, expanding his scope from local vigilante to a "globe-trotting" force for justice.
