    New Lara Croft

    I was checking out Yahoo Photos and came across this:

    http://news.yahoo.com/photo/060214/4...NlYwNnYWxsZXJ5

    I haven't seen an article on the subject as yet but this is the copy that goes with the photo:

    Karima Adebibe, 20 years old from London who has been chosen as the new international face of 'Lara Croft' action hero, poses for the media in London, Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2006. Karima was chosen from thousands of hopefuls, and will now embark on a gruelling training programme to prepare her for the role. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth)
    Not that I've been keeping up with the news on this subject, but I didn't realize there were plans for a new film and a new actress to fill the role.

      I thought a new Lara was needed for video game promotion, merchandising, etc. Didn't know a new movie was forthcoming. Karima looks pretty foxy though!

        ^Indeed. I read about it in the metro (free paper on the train. Immense!!) today. She gets to go through training like wall climbing, introductory archaeology etc. so she can get in character and do the best job or something like that...

          She's hot, but I still like Angelina Jolie better. Karmina has to prove herself though.

                      They should've used Rhona Mitra instead of Jolie in the first place!

                        Yeah, she does look more like the animated character. Than Jolie or that other chick.

                          Here, here! Angelina Jolie couldn't have fit the role more pefectly...This new chick had better bloody make up for Angelinas' work.

                              It's not for a new film though. All the article's i've read in the papers say it's just promotional work for the new game that will be out later in the year or next year. They wouldn't use a 'nobody' for the film i would think. Although I did hear someone say she had been an extra in AvP but I haven't checked that out.
