The great Kasi Lemmons (“Eve’s Bayou,” “The Caveman’s Valentine”) helms this biopic based on the life of famous abolitionist Harriet Tubman who escaped slavery and led hundreds of enslaved people to freedom on the Underground Railroad. Stage actress Cynthia Erivo, who had such a strong year in 2018 with both “Bad Times at the El Royale” and “Widows,” stars as Tubman in the project which boasts a script by Gregory Allen Howard (“Remember the Titans”) and also stars Leslie Odom Jr., Janelle Monae, Janelle Monáe, Joe Alwyn, Vondie Curtis-Hall and Vanessa Bell Calloway. With Focus Features releasing the film, expect it to try for some awards play.
