Here is Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft in first Tomb Raider poster

Things have mostly been quiet on the TOMB RAIDER reboot front for the last few months. The last word we brought you guys on the upcoming reboot, starring EX MACHINA's Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft, was when we shared some stills and the official synopsis way back in March.

That said, today we have the new TOMB RAIDER's poster for you to check out! On top of that, we know the new trailer is set to hit tomorrow so make sure to check back!

The poster features Lara Croft standing on a beach looking off to the side and glaring and whatever, but I'm digging Alicia Vikander as new Lara Croft so the poster could have featured her clipping her toenails and I would have thought it was totally worth the share.

You can check out the poster below – along with the above-mentioned official synopsis – and then let us know what you think of Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram!

TOMB RAIDER synopsis:

Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished when she was scarcely a teen.  Now a young woman of 21 without any real focus or purpose, Lara navigates the chaotic streets of trendy East London as a bike courier, barely making the rent, and takes college courses, rarely making it to class.  Determined to forge her own path, she refuses to take the reins of her father’s global empire just as staunchly as she rejects the idea that he’s truly gone.  Advised to face the facts and move forward after seven years without him, even Lara can’t understand what drives her to finally solve the puzzle of his mysterious death.

Going explicitly against his final wishes, she leaves everything she knows behind in search of her dad’s last-known destination: a fabled tomb on a mythical island that might be somewhere off the coast of Japan.  But her mission will not be an easy one; just reaching the island will be extremely treacherous.  Suddenly, the stakes couldn’t be higher for Lara, who—against the odds and armed with only her sharp mind, blind faith and inherently stubborn spirit—must learn to push herself beyond her limits as she journeys into the unknown.  If she survives this perilous adventure, it could be the making of her, earning her the name tomb raider.

TOMB RAIDER is directed by Roar Uthaug from a script by Geneva Robertson-Dworet and stars Alicia Vikander, Dominic West, Walton Goggins and Daniel Wu.

TOMB RAIDER opens March 16, 2018.
