Cynthia Erivo finishes the London Marathon in style

Cynthia Erivo has a moment to celebrate after she finished the London Marathon, which was billed as the biggest ever marathon in the city.

The Wicked actress blasted through the streets of London to the finish line in a stunning 3 hours, 21 minutes, and 40 seconds.

With an average of 4:46 per km, the actress ran a long 42 km course, leaving her fans in awe.

Aside from her impressive stamina, Erivo sent goosebumps into her fanbase as Wicked's iconic track Defying Gravity was playing in the background.

In a separate news, Erivo and Guy Pearce have been cast in The Road Home, a musical drama.

Bill Condon serves as director and described the film as "a powerful story about art intersecting with activism, a friction that’s only become more complex with time."

The film's logline read, "Masekela (Ramesti), after his exile from South Africa, is led by anti-apartheid advocate Archbishop Trevor Huddleston (Pearce) in a campaign against Masekela's friend Paul Simon over his Graceland album."
