À propos de cet audio
Denzel Washington is having quite a moment right now, with his legendary Equalizer franchise dominating Hulu's streaming charts while he simultaneously makes waves on Broadway and at major film festivals. According to Collider, all three Equalizer films are currently crushing it on Hulu in the United States, giving the five hundred seventy five million dollar franchise a major resurgence. The timing is perfect since Sony and director Antoine Fuqua are already developing two more installments, continuing Robert McCall's story even though The Equalizer 3 seemed like a farewell when it hit theaters in 2023.
But here's where things get really interesting. The seventy year old icon just received an honorary Palme d'Or at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival in May, with festival chief Thierry Frémaux surprising Washington in the audience while he sat next to Spike Lee. AOL reports that Washington was there promoting Highest 2 Lowest, his new collaboration with Lee that's a remake of Akira Kurosawa's High and Low. Washington walked the red carpet in Cannes wearing a black suit and white sneakers, waving to crowds alongside co-stars Ilfenesh Hadera and ASAP Rocky.
Currently, Washington is starring on Broadway as Othello opposite Jake Gyllenhaal as Iago at the Barrymore Theatre. According to TripAdvisor listings, the production is a strictly limited fifteen week engagement directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon. The Hollywood Reporter gave the performance mixed reviews, noting Washington's Hollywood magnetism but suggesting there's little evidence of a driving force behind his performance. The Guardian was similarly lukewarm, calling the production underwhelming despite praising Washington's moments of sublime delivery.
Looking ahead, Washington confirmed in November that he'll be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Black Panther 3, and he's been cast as Carthaginian general Hannibal in an upcoming Netflix film, though that casting decision has sparked controversy in Tunisia. His son Malcolm just directed The Piano Lesson for Netflix, with brother John David starring, showing the Washington family dynasty continues strong across multiple generations in Hollywood.
