Netflix is giving us a new animated adventure from Lara Croft. Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft launches on the streamer on October 10th. It comes from Writer/Showrunner Tasha Huo. It’s executive produced by Dmitri M. Johnson, Timothy I. Stevenson; Jacob Robinson, Dallas Dickinson, Noah Hughes, Howard Bliss, Jen Chambers and Brad Graeber. It includes Hayley Atwell as Lara Croft, Allen Maldonado as Zip, and Earl Baylon as Jonah.
Here’s a synopsis from Netflix.
The animated series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft picks up after the events of the highly successful Tomb Raider video game Survivor trilogy (Tomb Raider; Rise of the Tomb Raider; Shadow of the Tomb Raider), and will chart the globetrotting heroine’s next chapter as the iconic adventurer. More than 25 years after her first appearance, Lara Croft (voiced by Hayley Atwell) continues to explore ancient mysteries and uncover lost truths across breathtaking and dangerous destinations.
Following the events of the Survivor series, Lara Croft has abandoned her friends to embark on increasingly more perilous solo adventures. But she must return home when a dangerous and powerful Chinese artifact is stolen from Croft Manor by a thief with an uncanny personal connection. Her daring pursuit will take her on an adventure around the world and to the depths of forgotten tombs, where she will be forced to confront her true self, and decide just what kind of hero she wants to become.
This isn’t the only Tomb Raider that we’re getting Prime Video is also getting in on the action with a live-action series from Phoebe Waller-Bridge. It looks like a great time to be a Tomb Raider fan though. Now we just need some new games from Crystal Dynamics.
