Is Dante leaving ‘The Equalizer?’

The Equalizer Season 4 concluded with plenty of excitement, particularly with Marcus Dante’s big career move to the NYPD’s Special Investigations Unit, which requires him to relocate to Los Angeles. This left some fans wondering if Tory Kittles, the actor behind Dante, would be leaving the show for good.

Good news for fans: Dante will return in Season 5! He makes his comeback in the very first episode, where we see him adjusting to his new role in LA. He takes a call from Harry, inquiring about the team’s well-being, and learns that Robyn misses him. Additionally, Robyn reaches out to Dante during the episode, confirming that he will still play a significant role in the storyline despite the geographical shift.

Tory Kittles spoke to Screen Rant, confirming his commitment to the show and expressing excitement about what’s in store for Dante in Season 5. He mentioned ongoing discussions with showrunner Joe Wilson and the creative team about expanding the character’s arc and the show’s scope. Kittles emphasized the collaborative environment with producers like Queen Latifah and the team at CBS, hinting at some intriguing developments ahead.

Kittles also reflected on the importance of having a reunion between Robyn and Dante, even if it was just via phone for now, reinforcing the emotional connection between the characters. Fans can look forward to seeing more of Dante as The Equalizer continues its weekly episodes on CBS every Sunday.

For those who prefer to stream, The Equalizer is available on Paramount Plus, with all four seasons accessible for binge-watching. New episodes will be added to the platform the day after their CBS broadcast, making it easy for viewers to stay up to date with the series.
