Alicia Vikander takes over Angelina Jolie in the new version of Tomb Raider as the classic role of Laura Croft. On the 27th, Vanity Fair magazine released three film stills of Laura. In these photos, Laura wears her iconic beige vest and cargo pants. One of the stills is set on the beach, the other shows Laura walking through the forest, and in the third, the Swedish actress stands alone on a pile of rubble.
Laura Croft is based on the 1996 video game Tomb Raider, in which Angelina Jolie played the first two films in the Tomb Raider series, released in 2001 and 2003.
On Monday, officials also released a synopsis of a remake of Tomb Raider, which hints at why Laura's father , played by Dominique West — mysteriously disappeared.
"Seven years after her father disappeared, Laura, 21, refused to take over her father's business empire, instead choosing to deliver a courier to university in London." ”
In any case, Laura "investigates why her father disappeared" and "goes to the last place where his father appeared before he disappeared: an ancient tomb near a small island in Japan." ”
Laura's perilous journey requires "her keen insight, indomitable determination and dedication," and "if she survives this perilous adventure, she will earn the title of 'Tomb Invaders.'" ”
Walton Goggins is said to be the main villain in the film, while Wu Yanzu will play the captain in the new film, and he will accompany Laura on his expedition.
In 2016, Erica won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her brilliant performance in "The Danish Girl". In an interview with Vanity Fair, she said: "When the producers gave me a filming invitation, I was so excited that Laura Croft was really a classic character. ”
Alisica sees Laura as a role model for countless girls, "who did everything she could to create her own world, where she connected her past and future." Her personality is complex, her personality is charming— tenacious, intelligent, vulnerable, and of course she's still a nobody! ”
Laura "This role is very different from other roles I've played", "Walking into Laura's character world filled the whole shooting process with joy, and of course playing a martial arts role in an action movie like this was also a challenge for me and made me feel very exciting." ”
SELF Magazine interviewed Magnus Lygdbäck, Alisika's fitness coach, who helped Alisica shape the physical state needed for the plot.
"Seven months before filming began, I helped Alisika develop a nutrition program that helped her gain muscle and also boost her metabolism," says Lygdbäck.
His sports program for Elisika includes "WeightLifting" and "Athletic Training". Four months before filming began, he took Alisika to London for intensive training, including drama rehearsals, rock climbing, weightlifting, boxing and mixed martial arts.
A remake of Tomb Raider will be released in March next year.
