Vinson says:
“When it comes to physical roles, I just thrive on that and something like the Lara Croft series would just be amazing because it’s the same type of female empowerment that we’re trying to get across and I think is just a stand-up role model for all women out there.”
She adds:
“If I could be the one that can portray that and hopefully kickstart that off again in this generation, that would be amazing,”
Vinson mentioned she would love to have crack at the female hero character Elektra as well, saying:
“Give me Elektra, something cool. I have fun coming on to sets, it’s kind of like dress up … When it comes to those types of superhero movies, it would be fun to come in and put on, like, the red lycra red catsuit,”. “So somebody, give me the chance to do it.”
