The first official set photos from Alicia Vikander's turn as Lara Croft are here, and they have many people at odds on who's the sexier Lara Croft: Vikander or Angelina Jolie! Julie did our 1996 pointy boobed video game hero proud by filling out the iconic white tank and booty shorts with her banging bod in 2001's Lara Croft Tomb Raiderand 2003's Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. Alicia's look is different, to say the least, and is based closely on the Croft debuted in the 2013video game Tomb Raider. The biggest difference is that she, how do I phrase this, doesn't have heavingjiggly milk bags.
Everything from Angelina's lips to her tits brought Lara to life back in 2001. Both of her Croft moviesreceivedflack for lacking in substance, to which I said "It's a video game centered on an angular raider of tombs. Chill out."
For Vikander's Tomb Raider, set for release in March of 2018, substance is the name of the game. And no, I'm not talking about a certain sticky substance. The stunning award season favorite supports elevating Lara from sex symbol to action hero feminist, and that concept is evident in her toned down look.While the Lara in these just-released set photos is a far cry from the days of Jolie, there's something about knowing what Alicia's tight little body looks like completely nude (from The Danish Girl andEx-Machina) that really does something for me! So, who's the sexier Lara Croft?
