After Watching The Extraction Movies


So after watching the Extraction movies, I think she would do well as Lara Croft, especially if they make another Tomb Raider movie based on the 2013 game and it's sequel where Lara is more of a fighter or some kind of female Rmabo. I'm sure someone will say "but she is not white," but this is one of those times where it comes down to skill, and not skin color. Also, instead of a young Lara Croft like the games, do a more older/more experienced Lara since I'm sure another argument would be "she's too old," especially if they want to keep Lara younger. But I was thinking Lara in her 30's. But yeah. I think she could pull off Lara Croft. Great to look at and she's believable as a badass. I REALLY liked her character in the Extraction movies. She would be my dream casting for Lara Croft if they did another Tomb Raider movie.

Lara Croft is white.
Her father was white and of British descent.
Her mother was white and of British descent.
Lara Croft is white and yes skin color matters because there is a set background lore in place for decades now that would like to be respected.

How about we ask Robert Downey Jr. to play Martin Luther King?
After all, skin color does not matter, only "skill" and RDJ would be my dream casting for King!

Ridiculous.
