Actress Cynthia Erivo, famous for her role in “Wicked,” has shared details about her future projects, “Poker Face,” saying they are “completely outrageous.

The actor acknowledged she’d be juggling multiple roles, yet she thought, ‘If not now, then when?’ This was her way of expressing her eagerness to take on these new challenges.”
“The actor realized she’d have five distinct roles to handle, but she pondered, ‘If not now, then when?’ This summed up her enthusiasm for taking on fresh experiences.
As an enthusiast, I yearned to explore the intriguing concept of juggling multiple personas concurrently, pushing my boundaries to test its feasibility. One particularly chaotic day, as we delved into four distinct characters, I found myself verging on the edge of madness – utterly, undeniably insane.
During the promotional tour for ‘Wicked,’ we were busy, going to every event non-stop. For eleven consecutive days, I filmed scenes in New York, which left me feeling mentally drained. In fact, ‘mentally exhausted’ doesn’t even begin to describe it.
At the close of each day, I’d often find myself struggling to recall my own identity. I’d mutter something like, “I can’t seem to locate myself.” The experience was chaotic, yet wonderfully so, as the celebrity, who has also graced the screen in films like Harriet and Widows, explained.
While Erivo admitted that playing her own scene partner presented certain difficulties, she found working with Lyonne to be surprisingly effortless. Reflecting on their collaboration, Erivo expressed, “I enjoyed it immensely. It was incredibly straightforward. We shared a wonderful chemistry.
Poker Face season 2 premieres on Peacock on May 8.
