This just in Karima Adebibe as the new Lara Croft

Karima Adebibe, 20 years old from London who has been chosen as the new international face of 'Lara Croft' action hero, poses for the media in London, Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2006. Karima was chosen from thousands of hopefuls, and will now embark on a gruelling training programme to prepare her for the role.




Alrighty then.

Not sure what she is going to actually do, but probably sort of a spokesmodel who goes to gaming conventions and what-not, rather than taking over the movie role from Angelina Jolie.

First Scarlett Johannsen, then Josh Bernstein, now Karima Adebibe. Archaeology departments worldwide are going to have their doors busted in by young, attractive undergraduates wanting desperately to study archaeology.

Thanks to Nick at The Perfect World.
