There'd be too much comparison to Katniss.

I'm not familiar with Alicia's work, but I'm pleased there is finally an actress involved.

Well, that's definitely interesting. Not my first choice for reboot Lara, but she's an amazing actress and definitely a much better choice for Lara than Daisey Ridley would have been. Only time will tell if she's the right choice, but for now I'm staying postive!

She won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress this year (Or was it last year? I always forget when they do the awards ceremony ). She's been in The Danish Girl, Ex Machina, The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,...
