We’ve got a new trailer here for you to watch for Legendary Television and Crystal Dynamics’ upcoming anime series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft, which is coming to Netflix.
The trailer offers an exciting new look at the adventure that Lara Croft finds herself on as she is also confronting and battling her inner demons. It also shows off a lot of fun action!
Hayley Atwell (Captain America: The First Avenger, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One) stars in the series and is providing the voice of Lara Croft.
The series is set after the events of the video game reboot trilogy. “Lara Croft, one of the video game world’s most iconic adventurers, makes her anime debut in an all-new series.
“Picking up after the events of the highly successful Tomb Raider video-game reboot trilogy, the animated series will chart the globetrotting heroine’s latest, greatest adventure. Twenty-five years after her first game appeared, Lara continues to explore new territory.”
When previously talking about the series and teasing her preparation for the series and her voice, Atwell said: “The scripts are so good and they’re so fun.”
She added: “I think also I got so much practice and preparation for how to sustain the level of activity and energy with just your voice by playing Captain Carter in this way, that it set me in good stead for going, ‘This is how you, as a voiceover what it takes, for you to be confined in a small space and not seen, but totally rely on the voice to tell this story and wake up other people’s imaginations.’ So yeah, one thing helped feed the other for sure.”
The anime is being written and executive produced by Tasha Huo. Dmitri M. Johnson, Stephan Bugaj, Howard Bliss, and Jacob Robinson will also oversee the series as producers.
The series will debut on Netflix on October 10th.
