Titus Welliver, Juani Feliz Cast for Equalizer Spinoff

CBS is considering a spinoff of its successful series 'The Equalizer', starring Queen Latifah, and has cast Titus Welliver and Juani Feliz as the leads in potential roles. Welliver will portray Hudson Reed, a former CIA operative with a mysterious past, while Feliz will play his daughter, Samantha, trained in martial arts and weaponry. These characters will debut in Episode 16 of the current fifth season, with the possibility of continuing in a standalone series. This potential spinoff follows CBS's strategy of introducing new series through integrated storylines within existing shows. The approach has been previously successful with other CBS franchises like 'NCIS' and 'FBI'. The spinoff, if realized, will further expand the multi-series drama franchises on CBS.
