Rumors are circulating that "Tomb Raider" will purportedly have a 2015 movie reboot.

Some websites are speculating that if the "Tomb Raider" 2015 movie reboot would push through, Camilla Ludington may be the best actress to play Lara Croft.

After all, she has provided the voice and motion capture performance for the 2013 reboot of the video game. In an interview with Game Informer last February, Camilla Ludington admitted that she was been a Lara Croft fan ever since she was a kid.

"When the first game came out, I was probably like 12 or 13 or something like that and my older brother actually had the game," Camilla dished out. "I remember that he rarely let me play, but I would sneak on sometimes. I was familiar with the game really through him because he was a gamer."

If ever Camilla Ludington will be chosen to play Lara Croft in the "Tomb Raider" 2015 movie reboot, it would help a lot that she already had experience training physically for the role.

"I realized very quickly from the last game that it was a lot more physical than I thought it was going to be and so for myself, I did things like circuit training or even biking or running," Camilla said.

"Those are things that just help me maintain the endurance through an eight hour shoot of motion capture. Where things get really technical or kind of aggressive, they will have stunt people in and kind of go over that because it needs to be choreographed in a way that they feel like stunts are properly performed and better. "

Camilla Ludington's name also showed up in Screenrant's list of possible actresses who could be playing the role of Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider" 2015 reboot movie.

"...If the plan is to tell an origin story like that of the game - and to do it with some speed - then Luddington could be the wisest choice. Having already captured the emotional and physical rise of Lara from an amateur archaeologist, much of the work would be done already," the website said.
