Angelina Jolie... Perfect as Lara Croft

The Movie Is Based on a Videogame.....
... but there is also a series of Comic Books from Image Comics, and a few one-shots specials.
Angelina was born in 1975, and was cast in a few movies before her Tomb Raider breakout film in 2001 !
She portrayed Lara Croft, who is a member of a rich British aristocratic family. She enjoys collecting ancient artifacts from ruins of temples, tombs, cities, and other places worldwide, and goes through death-defying dangers to obtain them. She is skilled in hand-to-hand combat, weapons training, and foreign languages and does them all in tight outfits as per the video game.
Angelina's looks definitely helped fill the tight outfits role, and being the daughter of actor Jon Voight gave her a good background in acting.
The movie made Angelina an international movie star, thus during the summer of 2003 the sequel, Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, was released. After seeing her at the SDCC movies program I acquired more respect for her as she came across very well to her audience of over 6,000 in speaking and answering questions from her fans.
Angelina later starred in 'Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow', with Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow which I really enjoyed also !
