“She made me embarrassed to take my shirt off,” says her co-star Walton Goggins. Stunt after stunt, the actress was put through numerous far-from-pleasant filming conditions, from being continuously splashed with icy water to jumping off cliffs, trees, ladders, and many other not-very-stable set parts.īut most importantly, to take her transformation to the next level, Vikander followed a rigorous muscle building workout routine to bring strength and robustness to her character. “Alicia is a beast,” exclaims actor Daniel Wu in the making-of.
Playing the smart and athletic ’90s popular protagonist/sex symbol as she grows into a kickass adventurer should have represented quite a challenge for anyone, but Vikander actually makes the performance look like something she was born to do. “I’ve been dreaming since I was a kid to be part of a big action adventure, to push myself,” says Vikander in the behind-the-scenes video, above, unveiling how she became Lara Croft.
Fierce and in tip-top shape, the 28-year-old Swedish actress has been training very hard to portray the younger version of Lara Croft in the much-loved video game character’s highly anticipated origin movie, Tomb Raider. She’s certainly no Angelina Jolie, but Alicia Vikander has a lot more stunning attributes to make up for it.
