Canceled Tomb Raider Show Returns With Final Episodes in 4 Days

Despite having a lot of potential, the Netflix series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft didn’t quite succeed and was ultimately canceled. While some fans blame the animation style – noting Powerhouse Animation’s previous work ranged from the excellent Castlevania to the more average Blood of Zeus – others believe the show strayed from what makes Lara Croft a compelling character. A Reddit user explained that it wasn’t just the change to her signature dual pistols, but that the show failed to capture her adventurous spirit. The attempt to make her more relatable by focusing on a family drama and guilt-tripping her into following her father’s path took away from the fun and excitement of being a tomb raider, fundamentally changing the character and the premise of the series.
