2. Tomb Raider – Lara Croft’s battle with the supernatural

Lara Croft redefined the concept of a human trying to overthrow myths. Tomb Raider (2018) had her facing off against the legend of Himiko, the Queen of Yamatai, who was said to wield deadly powers. A mix of intelligence, agility, and determination made Croft the perfect foil to ancient legends. The franchise brings together archaeology and action as it highlights the myth and reality interplay. Croft can be seen here as a modern-day answer to the mysteries of the past.
