Who deserves to fill Lara Croft's Hollywood boots?

Christina Ricci, there's someone I never considered. I can actually see it working, she is fantastic at both playing vulnerable and strong characters, check out 'Monster' to see what I'm talking about.

My only concern with her is that she's quite short, she's exactly 5ft I think.

Honestly after playing through the new game I would love it if they gave the live action role to Camilla Luddington. Not only did she surpass my expectations but she made the role her own and brought so much personality to Lara. Couldn't imagine anyone else playing her at this point, she deserves to get the live action role.

What can I say, we are all picky about who should be playing Lara. As long as it's an actress from the UK who can actually pull off the role I'll be happy. No more Angelina nonsense XD

I have a major emotional fanboy boner for Angie so I can't really fault her, except for the forced accent.

I actually liked Angelina and she's quite the actress and fit the look as well of Lara (or at least Classic Lara). However, I do believe that a British actress should play as Lara as it's just a peeve of mine when actors/actresses who have to have a specific accent don't naturally have it. Now that doesn't mean there are not talented actors/actresses who can't do those kind of parts (Just check out Peter Dinklage's acting and accent change as Tyrion Lannister on Game of Thrones if you don't believe me), but I just prefer a British actress to do the part. It also helps shut up the whiny folks who complain that Lara's not 'American' when they use an American actress or whatever their nationality besides British.

I liked Angelina as Lara. She wasn't the Lara I imagined but I think she did her job well portraying her.
As for a new Lara for some time now I have an idea that Yvonne Strahovski should be Lara. Of course, only if she dyes her hair. It's really subjective, though, because I'm huge fan of the TV show Chuck and she stars there But you can see she can kick-ass awesome! I know probably no one will agree with my choice, but hey, I girl can dream
Another choice of mine would be Camilla Luddington. I actually haven't seen her in movies (or at least can't think of any right now) but who knows, maybe she can do it
I would disagree with half of that list (http://bestforfilm.com/film-blog/top-10-actresses-wed-like-to-see-play-lara-croft ) though. There was a moment (really short one) when I thought that Jennifer Lawrence could be Lara. I got that out of my mind immediately. Of course, she could played it perfectly as the role is so similar to Katniss, and I think she's the younger it that list (or at least it appears so) but she's Katniss, not Lara. I think it would be confusing somehow...
I strongly disagree that Mila Kunis and Keira Knightley could be Lara. I like them, especially Keira, but I don't want them to be Lara. Gemma Arterton would be interesting I guess... And I don't know the others so can't say anything about them, but that Haywire trailer looks pretty awesome. But wouldn't Gina be a little old to be Lara?

if not then with a bit of work learning english Louise Bourgoin

Going to bump my own thread and post this poll about who could be the next Lara...

To be honest though, I don't see the film happening, well not anytime soon anyways!

I just though of someone else who could fill Lara Croft's Hollywood boots. What about Daisy Ridley? I love how she acted in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. She has the right look and attitude to play Reboot Lara. I even found an article in the internet that says she is being considered for the role!



Just remember, I read it on the internet, so it MUST be true!


LOL! :3
