On the downside, I think many people feel she is too old to play the 21 year old reboot Lara though (she's what 31 years old if I'm not mistaken). But then again, just because the film is supposed to tie in with the reboot games doesn't mean she have to be that young in the film. Perhaps the film is set several years after the events of TR2013. Plus, she could easily pass for being younger than she is.
Anyway, Camilla Luddington for the win!
To be fair she doesn't look it, she looks 25. It doesn't matter how old she is, she only has to look/act the part.

I agree. I really think they should give the part to Camilla already.

Camilla turned 31 today, she is now officially ten years older than Lara, if they chose to pursue a franchise with her she may be forty by the time the final film rolls around. Not to mention the earliest this film is going to appear in cinemas is 2017.

Well, there is always to option of going CGI with Camilla as mo-cap and voice actress. Definitely the best option if you ask me.
Plus, it's only said that the films will now tie in with the games (unlike the two prior TR films that was a completely different universe and canon) so in theory this could mean that Lara is somewhat older in the films (25+) than she is in TR2013 and ROTTR. Camilla could easily pass for 25 in my opinion.

Camilla Camilla ... Camilla is a mediocre actress. She only is a Supporting Actress in a TV DRAMA! It has only been in two series and she was neither protagonist. And a crappy TV movie where she played kate Midelton!

She is not lara. It is not like Lara. In addition, she is 31 years old. She will NEVER Lara.

STOP. She is out.

Well Angelina Jolie is mediocre yet she played Lara in two films so I don't consider that a valid argument thank you very much...

If this wasn't supposed to be a reboot film I would agree with you that another actress might be more fitting than Camilla, but since this is supposed to tie in with the rebooted universe it's another thing entirely.
Camilla's voice and manner is so connected to the reboot Lara persona so having another actress play her would make her feel like a different character entirely.
With Camilla we'll get that reboot Lara feel immediately.

Oh HELL no. Angelina is NOT mediocre.
She is HEAPS more talented than Camilla.

I 100% disagree with you that if Camilla doesn't voice her it'll feel like a different character. Angelina Jolie did wonderfully as Lara and she isn't even naturally British.

I already said Gemma Anterton before ( i don't know how to write her last name, i'm sorry ), but another name that comes into my mind is Gal Gadot:

I still think Kacey Barnfield would be a great Lara.
