Tomb Raider: First official pictures show Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft

Tomb Raider fans have been given a first look at Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft ahead of the new film’s release. The images show the Ex Machina star as Croft in the iconic tank top and cargo trousers; noticeably less sexualised without the tiny shorts worn by Angelina Jolie in the previous films.

Croft’s backstory has been given an overhaul in the movie which is set for release next year. The action hero is a bike messenger searching for her missing father – beginning at the last place she knows he was – in a tomb off the coast of Japan.
