By Netflix has released the first trailer for Legendary Television’s animated series “Tomb Raider: The Legend Of Lara Croft” which will premiere on the service on October 10th.
Marvel and “Mission: Impossible” alum Hayley Atwell voices the iconic role of British adventurer Lara Croft in the series based on the famed video game franchise.

Her daring pursuit will take her on an adventure around the world and to the depths of forgotten tombs, where she will be forced to confront her true self, and decide just what kind of hero she wants to become.
Allen Maldonado and Earl Baylon also star, the latter reprising his role as Jonah from the games. Tasha Huo (“The Witcher: Blood Origin”) serves as showrunner on the series which is produced by Legendary, game developer Crystal Dynamics and animated by Powerhouse Animation Studios (“Castlevania”).
