Tomb Raider Live-Action Series Casts Original Lara Croft Voice Actor

The original voice of Lara Croft from the first game will appear in Amazon’s upcoming live-action Tomb Raider show.

The upcoming live-action Tomb Raider series has announced several cast members, including Sigourney Weaver, Jason Isaacs, Martin Bobb-Semple, and Bill Patterson. However, a significant and familiar name appears to be missing from the initial announcements, and longtime fans may recognize them.

Keeley Hawes Joins Live-Action Tomb Raider Series

The Sun reports that Keeley Hawes, the original voice of Lara Croft, will appear in Amazon’s upcoming live-action Tomb Raider series. However, she won’t be playing Lara Croft herself; that role is going to Sophie Turner, known for her work on Game of Thrones. A set photo included in the report shows Hawes wearing a long raincoat and carrying a shopping bag.

People are already wondering what character she’ll play, and many think she might be Lady Amelia Croft, Lara Croft’s mother and the Countess of Abingdon. But this hasn’t been officially confirmed.

Hawes often meets fans of the game and says they are incredibly kind. She enjoys making personalized answering machine messages for them during these encounters. She believes this shows how dedicated fans are to Lara Croft, a character who has been popular for over two decades and holds a special place in the memories of many who grew up with it.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will be made easier to appeal to today’s gamers. The developers of Catalyst also confirmed you can enjoy the game without any prior knowledge.
