Behold the new voice of Tomb Raider: Minnie Driver! The new "ReVisioned" series based on Tomb Raider's Lara Croft was launched by GameTap Retrospective in honor of the 10th anniversary of the release of the first game.  For more Lara Croft fun, the 10th Anniversary celebration will also release the Tomb Raider: Anniversary game on the PS2, Xbox 360 and the PlayStation Portable.

Seems like this delectable diva has been busy in the animation industry recently.  She also stars in the new Simpsons movie.  Probably the most spectacular demonstration of her voice was when she played Carlotta in The Phantom of the Opera, an even bigger diva than she is in real life.  She has experience in voicing an animated character from before: she played Brooke Shields in South Park and Lady Eboshi in Princess Mononoke so our favorite heroine will be safe in her hands (and microphone.)

"ReVisioned" will premier on July 10 on GameTap.com.  A new episode will appear every week through August 23.  And hey, it's free!

GameTap has announced the launch of a new GameTap Retrospective series as well as a new original animated series that will pay homage to one of the most well-known characters in video game history: Lara Croft.

"10 Years of Tomb Raider – A GameTap Retrospective" profiles the creators, the games, the live-action models, and the fans who have collectively made the Tomb Raider franchise a pop culture phenomenon. The documentary will be available for free and new segments will be added each week until June 7.

An original animated series called "ReVisioned" will also be taking on the Tomb Raider series for its debut season. ReVisioned will explore and re-imagine some well known video game franchises. The first season features interpretations of Lara Croft by well-known animators, comic book artists and writers including such names as Peter Chung, Jim Lee and Warren Ellis.

The first ReVisioned episode will debut on July 10 with new episodes running through August 23. There will be ten episodes in total and all of them will be available for viewing at GameTap.com for free.
