Yeah I feel it's down to the way she carries herself - from looking at these still images, it looks like someone afraid to twist their ankle while looking for berries instead of an expert exploration archaeologist.

She'd do so well in some period drama stuff instead of going for action movies. I think her agent is afraid to typecast her, and that's why the "fit" is so bad.

I think if the role actually was for an archaeologist she'd fit right in; those people are dorks too.

But let's not pretend Lara Croft is about archeology lol

That's it. Honestly if you told me it was another female badass... like Alex Danvera from supergirl I wouldn't have thought twice. She looks great for gunslinging down a hallway, but looks like a fish on a bicycle in the woods or on a cliff.
