It’s hard to believe that Harriet Tubman’s story has yet to be depicted in a feature film. Now is as timely as ever for movie-goers to be reminded of the real-life superhero, played beautifully by Broadway star Cynthia Erivo.
We spoke to Erivo, her co-star Leslie Odom Jr. and writer/director Kasi Lemmons about their experience shooting the film, including one moment that brought the cast and crew to tears. Watch the interviews and see Harriet at Cineplex theatres on November 1.
See Harriet to learn about this real hero.
While many of us know the name Harriet Tubman, there is so much to her story that is captured in this film. As relevant as ever, her fight for freedom changed the course of history, and it’s an inspiring and uplifting journey that we need right now.
