Per <em>Deadline<\/em>&#8216;s reporting, Denzel Washington is set to lead an intriguing new thriller from <em>Mission: Impossible \u2014 Final Reckoning<\/em> director Christopher McQuarrie at United Artists and Amazon MGM Studios.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span class=\"content-module-scss-module__RI8h6a__content\" data-test=\"content\"><\/p>\n<p>Penned by Scott Barkan and Gregg Zehentner, McQ&#8217;s latest \u2014 which doesn&#8217;t yet have a title \u2014 will find Denzel Washington in familiar territory, playing a man seeking a shot at redemption (see also; <em>The<\/em> <em>Equalizer<\/em> trilogy, <em>Man On Fire<\/em>, <em>Flight<\/em>, <em>He Got Game<\/em>). This time around, Washington is playing a former police detective, serving a life sentence for an as-yet-undisclosed crime, who is granted compassionate release from the slammer when he is diagnosed with brain cancer and told he has just months to live. Reunited with an estranged daughter and introduced to a grandson he never knew existed, Washington&#8217;s dying cop clearly wants to make amends and put his past behind him, but \u2014 whaddaya know? \u2014 his past has other ideas.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span class=\"content-module-scss-module__RI8h6a__content\" data-test=\"content\"><\/p>\n<p>For McQuarrie, this new project will represent a return to the territory of past hits like <em>The Usual Suspects<\/em> and <em>The Way Of The Gun<\/em> after over a decade spent almost exclusively dealing with the Impossible Mission Force. Our mission then, should we choose to accept it (which, given that this is McQ and Denzel teaming up, we absolutely will!), is to be seated in the nearest cinema on October 1, 2027 when this one hits cinemas.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For a man who, not eighteen months ago, we had been led to believe was contemplating retirement, Denzel Washington is working pretty damn hard just now.
