Netflix has released the adventure animation series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft on video for Autumn 2024 announced. Hayley Atwell, known from Marvel’s Agent Carter and Mission: Impossible 7, can be heard as action archaeologist Lara Croft – at least in the English original version. Atwell follows in the footsteps of Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander, only without having to don the adventurer’s outfit for a live-action film.

Like the Castlevania series, The Legend of Lara Croft comes from the Texas animation studio Powerhouse Animation. Under its umbrella, showrunner Tasha Huo set out to close a gap in the narrative of the popular video game series: The Netflix format takes place between the game series that started in the 90s and the reboot series – and aims to build a bridge between the versions.

In her animated adventure, someone has broken into her property to steal a Chinese artifact In the wrong hands, the valuable object could become extremely dangerous, which is why it is once again up to Lara to save the world.
