In June 2012, Crystal Dynamics confirmed Luddington would voice Lara Croft in the video game Tomb Raider. [3] Luddington originally went into the audition for Lara thinking she was auditioning for a project called "Krypted" with a character called Sara.[15] She had three auditions.[citation needed] She wore shorts and boots to her first Tomb Raider audition before she knew what it was because the character reminded her of Lara Croft.[16] She screamed in her car when she found she got the part.[17] She also did the motion capture for Lara over the course of three years. [citation needed] One day, she spent the entire day doing "death scenes" where she had to pretend to die in every possible way for the game.[18][19]
