Meet the New Woman Behind Lara Croft



Developers Eidos have done away with the long-standing tradition of having a real-life Lara Croft promote a Tomb Raider game. Instead, they've done something far more useful: brought in someone to actually play Croft in the game.

English actress Camilla Luddington will basically be Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider reboot, as she's done both the voice and motion-capture work for the role. The only thing missing will be, you know. Her face. Which won't be hers.

Which is a little weird, but if Camilla is cool with that, then I'm cool with that.

her voice is kind of annoying tho....don't get me wrong. i'm excited for the game, but the gameplay trailers with her voice...lol

Her accent is terrible. I'm surprised she is actually english.

This. She sounds more Aussie than English.

well, they've been downsizing Lara's breasts for some time now, which I'm actually glad about. It makes more sense for her to not be rocking double d's and trying to, you know, run.

and climb and jump around while shooting at things

it makes sense for most women, but not most men i'd recon.
robertsbox_xo 27th-Jun-2012 06:30 pm (UTC)
she's hot. i'm excited for the game.

Her Royal Highness is Lara Croft lol.

Yeah her voice is kinda irritating but I can't wait to play the game <3 Lara's been my hero since I was a little girl.

I liked Rhona Mitra as Lara Croft.

She's the only Lara model I care about tbh
mikochin 27th-Jun-2012 06:36 pm (UTC)
Her voice is bugging me in the clips I've seen, but I'll still love this game. I just know it.
biktur 27th-Jun-2012 06:37 pm (UTC)
The girl who was lara in TOMB Raider legend still is my favorite

Keeley Hawes! I love her voice to no end!
supernature_971 27th-Jun-2012 06:39 pm (UTC)
Ditto.

She was fierce.
x_rose_tyler_x 27th-Jun-2012 06:47 pm (UTC)
That's cause Keeley Hawes is a magnificent actress and could give emotion to a rock tbh
swim_thedepths 27th-Jun-2012 06:50 pm (UTC)
Same. I loved that one!
cerseilannister 27th-Jun-2012 06:38 pm (UTC)
She was in that Will and Kate lifetime movie
runaround_kid 27th-Jun-2012 07:19 pm (UTC)
i remember that. her accent was terrible. as was the movie, obvs.
jackiemust_die 27th-Jun-2012 06:38 pm (UTC)
but why not her face, she's gorgeous
heulog 27th-Jun-2012 06:39 pm (UTC)
I like that most everyone thought she was fake-British because her accent seemed so affected in the trailer.

We're just crap at our own accents, basically.
