Hayley Atwell – known for her role as Peggy Carter in numerous Marvel projects – is set to voice Lara Croft in Netflix’s upcoming Tomb Raider animation. While this has been known for a while now, we hadn’t heard how the actress sounds in her new part. Until now.
In a sizzle reel shared by Netflix to promote the various animated shows on the streaming service, we finally hear Atwell’s Lara speak. The show is set to take place after the events of the Tomb Raider Survivor trilogy, which comprised Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
These games rebooted the Tomb Raider series, and served as an origin story for Lara. As such, this Lara was less assured than the Lara we were first introduced to back in the 90s. However, judging by the most recent Netflix trailer, Atwell is bringing back some of that iconic confidence to the character. You can check it out for yourself below, at around the 40 seconds mark.
