Square
Enix Ltd., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX interactive
entertainment products in Europe and other PAL
territories, today announced that the English-born
actress Camilla Luddington has been chosen to
be the voice and performance actress of famous
video game adventurer, Lara Croft in the new Tomb
Raider game.
After
an international talent search using scouts in
Europe and the US, Luddington stood out as delivering
both a depth of emotion and the youthful tone
needed for Lara Croft in the upcoming reimagining
of the Tomb Raider franchise, due for release
on March 5, 2013.
"This
has been one of the most important jobs for us
to get right," said Darrell Gallagher, head
of studio at Crystal Dynamics "This Tomb
Raider game is very different to any other and
we are demanding far more from the voice and performance
acting than ever before as we take the franchise
in a new direction."
This
July Luddington will also participate in the Nerd
HQ and Comic-Con panels in San Diego, where she
will join the development team as they talk about
Tomb Raider and the story behind its creation.
Recently
Luddington has starred in hit Showtime series,
Californication and can also be seen in the current
season of HBO's True Blood. Tomb Raider is slated
for release on March 5th 2013.
