If you're a movie fan who loves lots of suspense and even more action, "The Equalizer" may be exactly what you need this fall.

The action-packed film stars 59-year-old Academy award winning actor, Denzel Washington and 17-year-old actress Chloe Moretz.

In the movie, Washington plays the role of Robert McCall, a former black ops commando who faked his own death so that he could get away from his strenuous career and live peacefully in Boston, Massachusetts. However, when the life of a young woman named Teri (played by Moretz) is at stake, McCall gets back in the game and "comes back to life."

The Daily Mail reports that Washington's character initially thinks he's just battling her pimps but ends up taking out 'the East coast hub of the Russian mafia.'

The movie's trailer opens with Washington's character, McCall, "reading a book in a deserted diner, where he watches Moretz get beaten up by a group of thugs. McCall comes out of retirement to save her," noted The Hollywood Reporter.

"The Equalizer" also stars Bill Pullman and Melissa Leo who plays Robert McCall's colleague.

Antoine Fuqua, who directed one of Washington's most popular movies, "Training Day," will also be directing this film.
