British gymnast, new Laura Croft, to Angelina Jolie: I’m twins free, busty and ready to kick ass
Move over Angelina Jolie. British gymnast Alison Carroll is the new Laura Croft.

Carroll, 23, will be the real-life version of Croft for the new game, Tomb Raider: Underworld, which is slated for a November release. Goodbye to the world of being a golf club receptionist, and hello to a job where being a gymnast and not recently giving birth to twins really comes in handy.
Carroll has won multiple regional and multiple competitions as a gymnast, giving her character an uncanny ability to, er, to whatever Laura Croft needs to do with her hot body to kick ass. Carroll’s also performed for Prince Charles and has coached younger gymnasts. Oh, and then that whole thing about choreographing the routine for the junior team that won the British National Championships is kind of a big deal, too.
Side note: You probably didn’t know it, but Jolie isn’t the only one who’s been Laura Croft. From left to right, here are some other Croft models and and their Lara Croft years: Lucy Clarkson (2000), Jill de Jong (2002), Karima Adebibe sits(2006), Nell McAndrew (1998), and Lara Weller (1999).
Rhona Mitra, Ellen Rocche and Vanessa Demouy have also portrayed the boner-inducing ass-kicker.
