I really hope you're joking

I knew I would if I was Camilla just kidding

Although it saddens me a bit because it's clear Camilla really wanted to play Lara in the movies, I'm not at all unhappy that Alicia got the role, I'm actually quite excited!

i dont see the point of giving her "blessing" if the character isn't even hers but alright...

As I said elsewhere, the 'giving her blessing' wording is the article writer's, not Camilla's. Camilla was asked for her opinion on Alicia taking the role and she gave it, praising Alicia and saying she's excited to see her interpretation of the role. I don't see how anyone can have a problem with that. For reboot Lara, Camilla is the only actress to play the role at least as the VA and mo-cap actress, so it's understandable if she sees the role of reboot Lara as hers currently.

Take note guys, get ready for a new generations of fans, because even if the movie will be shockingly good, it will change the whole concept once again as TR 2001 did.
Yup and that influence couldn't have come at a better time when tomb raider needed it the most. Judging from Rise, CD is out of ideas. Let a grade A director, actor, and screenwriters guide the franchise forward a few more steps. I couldn't be happier about that.

She should definitely be doing the voice and motion-capture work until the next reboot. Of course with the next reboot it will be only natural to hire someone else.

I would LOVE it is Alicia took over the motion capture role. We need to keep the standard high, not sea bed-reachingly low with Camilla.

I actually like Camilla's voice, if once the movie comes out and they use Alicia to voice Lara In my opinion the games would not feel unique and reach a certain quality that they do, The games are the most important thing in this franchise, they should keep it separate because its better that way

They didn t even ask her for an audition? I think she feels horrible now... I really like her role in Grey s Anatomy, she s a great actor too...
I think Alicia is too skinny to play Lara... Imagine she has to do all that jumps and falls...+ Lara has Roth's training Alicia does not look like she has any muscles at all...
I am not saying that I hate Alicia, but she isn t the great choice for the look of a british Lara Croft ...
