[ May 4th 2006 ]

Media invited to meet with Hollywood celebrity, Michael Madsen aka Mr. Blonde of Reservoir Dogs and the new Lara Croft model, Karima Adebibe during E3 in Los Angeles, California.

Screen star, Michael Madsen is well known for his villainous and often sadistic character roles. His most notable role was that of the psychopathic Mr. Blonde in the Quentin Tarantino-directed cult classic, Reservoir Dogs. The movie famously features the unforgettable ear-cutting scene where Mr. Blonde tortures a terrified police officer while dancing to the eerily cheerful tune, "Stuck in the Middle with You."

Madsen's villainous and hard-edged movie characters also included a role as Susan Sarandon's rough-edged boyfriend "Jimmy" in Thelma & Louise, bank robber, Rudy Travis in the remake of The Getaway, and Mafioso, Sonny Black in Donnie Brasco. Madsen most recently teamed up again with director, Quentin Tarantino to play the coldly evil "Budd" in the epic revenge movie, Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and Kill Bill: Vol. 2.

The new face of Lara Croft, Karima Adebibe has recently been featured across several media outlets to coincide with the release of the hotly anticipated and recently released Tomb Raider Legend. With two movie spin-offs, 200+ magazine covers and the title of U.K. Ambassador for Science and Technology under her belt, the digital diva hit U.S. retail stores with the latest Tomb Raider release in April to rave reviews.

Michael Madsen will be available for media interviews in support of the forthcoming video game, Reservoir Dogs. He will be talking about his experiences in the original movie and will reveal some exciting plans for a key piece of memorabilia from the film. Karima Adebibe - the new Lara Croft model will be available for media interviews and to discuss her exciting year and unique experiences as the new face of Lara Croft.
