View Full Version : Cast A Movie Version of the Original Game/Anniversary
This has probably been done before, but who would everyone pick?
I'm still working on mine.
All digital characters :wve:
Just like Advent Children :tmb:
Hmm... I dunno. The people I might pick would be down to personal preference really - as would any actors picked buutt....off the top of my head
Lara : Angelina Jolie ( I think she did a pretty decent job so..)
Larson : Josh Holloway
Other than that Ive not really thought - Natla would be the hardest to cast.I'll get back to you on Natla. Pierre.. I dont have a clue at all.
Hmmm ... I would have the first ever video of tomb raider anniversary ( the cgi like one ) and have the whole movie like that :ton::cln:
Natla - Tilda Swinton or Uma Thurman
Natla - Tilda Swinton
Perfect! :tmb: I'd never have thought of her, but wow, yes.
Perfect! :tmb: I'd never have thought of her, but wow, yes.
Ditto that. She more than fits the bill :tmb:
No! Not the Rock! When I`ve seen Kold first time (Anni of course), I thought: Wow! He looks like Michael Clark Dunkan!!!
And Natla looks very strange and impressive and she`s tall so thank you for aprecciate my opinion. I really think Swinton or Thurman looks like her. So... unbelevieble and 'Atlantean'
Brendon Frasier = Larson?
Gary Oldman = Pierre?
Michael Dorn - Kold?
Stan Winston = Tyrannosaurus
Adam Sandler = Stakeboard kid?
:p
Lara Croft - Sandra Bullock (:D)
Natla - Nicole Kidman
Larson - Casper van Dien
Pierre - Jean Reno
Kin Kade - Christopher Judge
Kid - Noel Fisher
(Thank God nobody let's me cast movies.)
I`d like to see mister Oldman in it, he`s my favorite actor, but not Pierre. He could be one of villains in AoD I think

Why is it that every time we discuss our ideal imaginary movies based on our beloved books or video games we always discuss casting? IMHO, that's of tertiary imoprtance at best, not primary or secondary.
Personally, I don't go to movies to see stars. I go to the movies to see a good story and to be immersed in a vision that I haven't seen before. There are many ways in which a Tomb Raider movie could do this, but it would require work, showmanship, imagination, and a lot of thinking outside the box. But this is the sort of creativity that Hollywood is usually incapable of anyway. When I think of my ideal imaginary movies, I have characters in mind and not actors, and I tend to think of narrative tone, scope, and structure instead.
Hell, this sort of thinking is what brought us TR in the first place. No need to transform art into routine craft now.

Stan Winston = Tyrannosaurus A bit too small and too old to play me, don't you think?
Lara
--> Angelina Jolie with smaller lips
Pierre
--> Gerard Depardieu with another haircut and a shirt with a nude woman or an eagle on the back
Larson
--> Robert Knepper, if only for the way the immitates that redneck accent
Winston
--> Anthony Hopkins with less creepy look
Natla (2 options)
--> Hillary Clinton... just kidding ;)
--> Meryl Streep:

Glenn Close? It`s Meryl Streep!
You're right! I always get those two mixed up. Well, Glenn Close would do fine too btw...:D
Okay, here's mine;
Lara Croft - Angelina Jolie
Natla - Sarah Michelle Gellat, she can play a good b*tch
Larson - Josh Holloway
Pierre - Gary Oldman

Sarah Michelle Gellar is too short! just no
but i like the idea of Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman or Tilda Swinton for Natla, now thats good!
Michael Clark Duncan definitely Kold.
Seann William Scott, the Kid? i'm not entirely sure
Gary Oldman? interesting but i agree with Vertigo, he seems more aod than anniversary
Brendan Frasier? he has the looks but i find it hard to see him in a non funny role
Lara: Angelina Jolie, i can't see anyone else playing her. as long as she isn't super skinny
Angelina Jolie: Lara Croft

POSSIBLY Miley Cyrus: Young Lara Croft
I think she looks like Angelina in this shot.

And the rest of the cast doesn't really have that big an impact on me. I doubt we'd see much of Winston, and he's the only one I'd have any preference about.
