Last month, a synopsis for the sequel was released, revealing that at least some of the film will take place in Italy.
"Since giving up his life as a government assassin, Robert McCall has struggled to reconcile the horrific things he's done in the past and finds a strange solace in serving justice on behalf of the oppressed," it reads.
"Finding himself surprisingly at home in Southern Italy, he discovers his new friends are under the control of local crime bosses.
"As events turn deadly, McCall knows what he has to do: become his friends' protector by taking on the mafia."

The third instalment comes almost a decade after the first movie launched in 2014, which was based on the '80s TV series of the same name.
Antoine Fuqua has been at the helm of all three movies, and back in 2018, he teased that the sequel would level up the franchise, telling CinemaBlend: "I would love for it to take place internationally. I think Denzel would be a great James Bond-type character."
The film, written by Richard Wenk, will see Washington reuniting with his former Man On Fire co-star Dakota Fanning.
The Equalizer 3 is set to be released in cinemas on September 1.
