Lara Croft Gets Extra Artillery for TransAngels Parody

BURBANK, Calif.—With the new reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise about to hit theaters, recently launched trans studio TransAngels grabs the opportunity to put its own unique twist on the adventures of heroine Lara Croft by casting trans performer Chanel Santini in the role for upcoming release Tomb Raider: A XXX Trans Parody.

Following TransAngels' hit Wonder Woman: A XXX Trans Parody, which also starred Santini, the studio's take on the popular video game-based saga was directed by Danny Angel and co-stars Damien Stone as Lara's bumbling but hunky sidekick.

"The story behind one of the world's most notorious fictional treasure hunters is one that we were very excited about exploring," Angel said. "Chanel's embodiment of the role was one of our favorite parts as the production came to life—she played her part beautifully. The tension of each adventure must ultimately be relieved, and whether that's found in a magical jewel or mystical shaft, we ensure our protagonist glistens."

Added Santini, "Getting from hair and makeup [to] putting your costume on for the first time, you feel so empowered. I'm so excited for this film and to play another badass female character. Working on the first [parody] was so much fun, but this one is going to be bigger and better than the one before."

Tomb Raider: A XXX Trans Parody debuts Monday, March 12 on TransAngels.com.
