Hayley Atwell plays Lara Croft
Who is Lara Croft? Lara Croft is a British archaeologist and adventurer, who visits ancient tombs and ruins around the world. At the start of the series, Lara has been abandoning her friends to embark on increasingly perilous solo adventures.
Atwell spoke with RadioTimes.com about what fans can expect from Lara in the series, explaining: "Lara's emotionally struggling with things, and in this series, you see that.
"It basically picks up after the events of the games of the Survivor Trilogy. She's emotionally at her lowest point, and she's been abandoning her friends to embark on all these solo adventures, but one of these adventures actually leads her back to home, where she's having to confront who she really is, opposite her friends.
"For example, Lara might be driven by this belief that what she's doing is important and heroic or brave, but it might be her friends pointing out that she's also trying to probably run away from her feelings. She'd rather be jumping off cliffs and examining ancient artefacts with evil spirits than she would dealing with the fact that she doesn't really like to be at a party.
"She gets anxiety. I think that's charming and endearing, and it gives me an opportunity as an actor to bring that particular quality to her, which may be different from what we've seen before, but certainly in keeping with what we know her to be."
