I didn't see a Devil in a Blue Dress so even though it came out a few years later the first time I remember seeing he was in Eve's Bayou

More Mosley books need to be made into movies. I know Denzel hasn't done sequels until the Equalizer, but him doing a series of Easy Rawlins movies based on the books would have been a good look. And it's a much stronger character than who he played in the Equalizer, or for another comparison in a somewhat similar genre, the Alex Cross movies.

This. The entire Easy Rawlins series should be brought to the big screen. Since Denzel is (maybe) too old to play Easy now, I think Nate Parker, Johnathan Winters, or John David Washington would do pretty well. Don Cheadle still looks young enough play Mouse.

My favorite book series from, along with Vonnegut, my favorite author. Would love if somebody revived the series. And yeah, Cheadle is ageless and could still play Mouse.

You bout to have me doing a reread of the whole series. I picked up Gone Fishing at the library one day about 20 years ago and been hooked ever since.
I picked up a copy of one of Mr. Mosely's newer books, Debbie Doesn't Do It Anymore, & it looks like a good read so far. Have you seen his work on Snowfall? He wrote a lot of season 2, which is probably why the storytelling was so tight.
