Your first look at Cynthia Erivo as Harriet Tubman is here
, Tony winnerplays the American hero, tracing her terrifying journey from runaway slave to heroic abolitionist via the Underground Railroad.
The trailer opens on Harriet’s initial escape, running away from a vicious slave owner and braving the unknown. Using a river and the North Star as her guide, she manages to make it out of the south and meet with William Still , a Philadelphia-based abolitionist who helps fugitive slaves find freedom. However, it doesn’t take long for Tubman to decide that she has to go back and help free her family, as well as dozens of other enslaved people.
It was tough, though, to portray a woman who suffered so much hardship. “If I was to stay in her body for a really long time, I would not make it out alive most days,” Erivo said. “Like, yesterday was an emotional day, doing the scenes where she finds out [John’s] with someone else. She sees it. She also has her epilepsy—she had seizures. So that whole day, I was essentially in character.”
“It’s already gonna leave a scar on my soul,” she said. “This is gonna be with me for the rest of my life. I’m fully ready for it.”
