What Is The New Show About?
‘Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft’ picks up from where the ‘Survivor’ game trilogy leaves and takes place in the same universe. The plot synopsis reads:
“Following the events of the ‘Survivor’ series, Lara Croft has abandoned her friends to embark on increasingly more perilous solo adventures. But she must return home when a dangerous and powerful Chinese artifact is stolen from Croft Manor by a thief with an uncanny personal connection. 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.”
Tasha Huo serves as the showrunner.
