Aubrey Plaza "ville elske" at spille Lara Croft

For nylig tabte MGM filmrettighederne til Tomb Raider, og derfor lader det ikke til at Alicia Vikander vender tilbage i en endnu en Tomb Raider-film. Naturligvis er IP'en for stor til at gå i glemmebogen, og når den så finder et nyt hjem, så er der en skuespillerinde der gerne vil tage over.

For nylig kommenterede instruktøren bag Scott Pilgrim og Baby Driver, Edgar Wright, på hele sagen, og slog fast at han ønsker at se Aubrey Plaza (Parks & Recreation) som Croft, og den idé er hun vild med. I et interview med Newsweek siger hun:

"Look, I have no idea what the future holds for me, but I love it. It was so funny when [Wright] texted me that because I didn't realize how strikingly similar those photos are. Emily is carrying a purse strap and Lara Croft has a gun holster, those are very different. But it's very weird and totally accidental, but I'll take it. I love action movies, and I don't discriminate against big movies or small movies. I love all kinds of movies. I would love it if somehow that turned into a real thing, but who knows, I have no idea. That's an iconic character. She's the original badass."

Hvad synes du om den ide?
