Jonell always understood the assignment and she’ll always be the best and definitive Lara voice actress. There’s something about her voice-not only the beautiful tone/color, but the way she’s able to make Lara sound both fierce and sweet at the same time! 😭
Everybody is entitled to their opinion but I'm glad they stuck with Jonell Elliot. Her voice fits this b*tchy sarcastic iteration of Lara Croft more than any VA could have. Also I can't imagine anyone else but Jonell Elliot to pull of Lara's "If I had a coconut for everytime some lunatic said something like that" line.
The first one sounds more mature. I don't really like Jonell's voice that much because she sounds way younger than Lara should have sounded, especially in 4-5. Her voice in 2-3 and Legend are way better.
