Variety Magazine How Cynthia Erivo Survived Wicked — ... 2026

Description

Actor Cynthia Erivo reclines against a large neoclassical stone pillar on a high balcony ledge in an editorial portrait for Variety Magazine. She wears an expansive, voluminous charcoal grey nylon track ensemble featuring an exaggerated stand-up collar, ruched hems, and fine white piping over a white base top. The natural high-contrast sunlight casts sharp architectural shadows across the stone balcony, with a curved historic urban building visible across the street under a clear blue sky. Makeup is styled by Joy Adenuga, captured by photographer Zoe McConnell.
