As a said in the movie thread, I think she looks fine I'm more concerned about her acting abilties, but this could be her chance to show the doubters wrong, only time will tell...
No triangle bosom. Not watching!
It does look a bit like cosplay.
But, joking aside, I was more of a fan of the more realistic vibes in the reboot trilogy. I'm not a fan of going back to the old look. In this or the new games they're making. It looks cheesy and cheap.

Looks pretty good to me. Now they just have to come up with a compelling story.
They did a pretty good job of capturing the classic look, just curious if the series will be good or not, which I guess time will tell.
If they're going this route then they HAVE to embrace the camp.
Can't argue that she doesn't look the part that's for sure. I've got the urge to go buy Lucozade now.
To be fair they got the classic look just about right.
Not bad not bad at all still need to see her in motion.
Looks good really. But I can't stand her acting. So I have no hope for the show.
Ok that actually looks pretty good. Would rather they went with the Survivor trilogy look to fit her lean physique, but that looks more or less like Lara to me.
@HMazzy111 what a callback! 😅
She looks fantastic, she also have the right kinda voice, it'll be interesting to see how well she act as Lara
@nessisonett that tends to happen when you do fairly authentic live action things.
She actually looks great. But yeah, just hope she can pull off the acting!
wow, ultimate cosplay! I hope she enjoys playing Lara.
There's just a couple of things that I can't quite put my finger on that are a little smaller then I remember Lara having, but apart from that it's a great interpretation!
@nessisonett well she's dressing as someone else lmao
What she looks like is completely irrelevant to me. That is the easy bit.
Will i buy her as Lara Croft? No. I doubt it. I am getting the same feelings in the pit of my stomach that i got when Bella Ramsay was cast as Ellie. I wasn't wrong then and I suspect that I am not wrong now.
8/10 Not enough booba
Gotta say, I've seen cosplayers pull this off WAY better...
Looks the part! Lets hope her acting has improved from those Game of Thrones days
I liked a lot. It will be great.
I am sorry but Sophie Turner cannot act.
They could have used a better background lol. Looks like the backdrop they used to make you stand in front of for school photos
EDIT looking at it again, it looks like the low-res caves from the first level of the original game. I've changed my mind, it's perfect
Angelina was perfect I just watch her 2 movies last weekend
lacks the upper qualities obviously but looks pretty great - for that standard character. (the reboot still has the only great looking lara)
remember how awful jolie was 😄
She looks fantastic as Lara and she's clearly been putting in the work to look the part. Nice to finally see the OG look as well in live action.
Extremely skeptical about her acting.
Amazing. I was worried they’d go down a contrarian route. Cosplay-y, yes, but that’s essentially what an adaptation is. The butler is a great actor as well, hope he gets locked in the freezer!
Daaaaaaamn! Love it
>The creator, writer, and executive producer is Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
That's all you need to know.
She reminds me of Oswald from KoF XI.
@Dalamar Precisely, which means no matter how closely they match the look and feel of the games. It's probably going to be pretty terrible. Any franchise that Phoebe Waller-Bridge has had anything to do with has been tarnished by her input.
Eh. You can put any attractive woman in Laura costume and it will look good. But Sophie just doesn’t work for me. Yeah she’s attractive. But I really don’t see it.
That's no acrobatic body. She's gonna need to hit the gym.
@HRdepartment no I dont see it either. Apart from wearing the same clothes she looks nothing like Lara Croft.
