@@Raidercast I think Keeley Hawes is the best voice for Lara Croft but Jonell suits the story of The Last Revelation, Chronicles and Angel of Darkness.
Jonell's voice acting is why I can't stand the new takes on Lara :C She destilled the characteristics of the previous voice actors and took it to the next level.
Her voice is just amazing. I can't tell you how much I just smiled and giggled like an idiot during this. I literally LOVE hearing her speak. She's the true voice of Lara. When the series truly returns to form, we need her!
I can't help but see in my head that you're interviewing Lara from AoD. She sounds exactly as she did back in the day! Thank you for doing this one and bringing Raidetcast back!
I am German and it was a pleasure for me to hear this interview, what a great woman, what a great voice !! There are people you can listen to, I could listen to Jonell Elliott for hours. After 20 years she sounds just as dynamic and SEXY as it did back then. Her laughter and humor are wonderful and heart refreshing ! Can you imagine, what a gift for millions of classic Tomb Raider fans if Jonell Elliott could be heard again in a remake of AOD ? Thank you for sharing !!!.......:)
I'm just here on my third listen...XD. How can someone possess such a voice? GAWD. I'm just so happy to finally hear her after all this time, along with all of this unknown TR history. Thank you once again for making this happen (and thanks to Shelley!). Looking forward to the rest of the season!
Her voice literally defined my childhood. The Last Revelation was my first game ever when I was 8 and I always wanted to be Lara Croft - either playing the game or playing pretend in our garden. She will always be Lara for me! Thanks for this! ❤️
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this interview with the lovely Jonell Elliott . I am a 28 year old guy and I grew up with the legendary Lara Croft, so as you can imagine this brought tears in my eyes . Amazing interview !
Out of all the actresses I’ve heard interviewed, Lara comes across the most with Jonell!! Low key disappointed that “I feel stronger now” didn’t come up in conversation 😂
I don't know if Jonell is reading the comments of your video but I just want to say thank you to her for all she did for us and Core Design as the voice of Lara. Her work in Angel of Darkness is my favourite of the games she was in and it would be awesome if she returned as the voice of Lara again, especially if/when Core's Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition sees the light of day. (I'd read somewhere back in 2008 or so that Jonell was planned to voice Lara in TRAE, but the project was canned before she could record any lines)
This was great hearing! I honestly don't think age is much of a barrier to Jonell returning - there's something delightfully timeless about her voice. I remember when I first heard her in the role, in Angel of Darkness, after I'd been introduced through the Legend trilogy with Keely Hawes, she was my second exposure to a Lara voice, and it was perfect for old Lara, and that game. Broken and unfinished as AoD was, Jonell's performance just brought so much... I guess elegant steel if I'm excused the poetry - dignified and polite, but also very plain that she absolutely would kill her way through problems. Her best bits are probably when she's playing Lara on the edge, unsure of herself but taking a very hard and threatening tone - it's perfect! The TR games were definitely an escape for me as a child, and Lara was someone I could feel genuinely confident stepping into the shoes of. Jonell was a key part of that, so I'm very thankful for her taking the role, and touched by her warmth and humility!
what a great opportunity to get to know her beautiful and cheerful personality. I never grew with the original games I played Anniversary first but my love for Lara never faded. She's always been the strong and powerful female lead that was so organic and well built. When I recently played the old games I was fascinated by Jonell's lovely voice she certainly gave the Confident edge of Lara's and I now I can't see Lara without Jonell's beautiful voice in my ear! Thank you for making this happen and Thank you Jonell for being there still after 20 years! We love you massively
We NEED the Jonell and Murti (and Eric!) wine-fuelled interview! x'D Seriously, that was such a brilliant podcast. It's magic to hear Jonell after all these years and listen to her take on the games and the recording experiences. Really great vibes and warmth
Aw it's nice to hear her voice again it takes me back to the old games! Out of them all she definitely brings the sas into Lara's voice and attitude. I still hear her now on telly its crazy. Lol her and shelly sound most similar to me.
Excellent interview, really great listen! Jonell comes across as so warm and fun, can't wait to chat to her. I've been replaying TRLR just to reacquaint myself with her time as Lara...it's great! Massive thanks for the shout-out, too!!
I love her voice so much, and it's so nice hearing it again! Shelley Blond and Judith Gibbins were just amazing as Lara, but Jonell really was the perfect voice for Lara Croft. I hope they re-hire her to voice Lara again in the future. Especially if they made the series return to it's classic roots. Honestly, any of the three first voice actresses would be great for that, but Jonell would be my favorite choice. Thank you for a great interview. It's really special for old Tomb Raider fans, and Jonell is such a lovely person. Also, I would love it if you somehow got Judith Gibbons to do your podcast. It was great to listen to your episode with Shelley Blond in season 1. Cheers!
This was so wonderful, Jonell is so lovely and honestly the only complaint I have is that the interview isn't longer because I could listen to it for *hours*. Haha I love how adventurous she is on her holidays, oh and that she would absolutely take the role again if offered... This interview was so much worth the wait, so interesting and funny and touching at times. Hey Chris... just don't forget to record that pub talk! :D (Seriously if that happened, that'd be amazing :D ) Now I just gotta ask if you're trying to get Judith for the first episode of 3rd season... it would be only fitting wouldn't it :D Ah, but for now, I'm just looking forward to what you have for us in this season, I'm loving this podcast so much!
Omg, still remember that voice! Even if i have played these last Core Design games on spanish version... I've played those games in english as well and this is amazing to hear :D Amazing interview :) Hearing it already
This was awesome! She sounds so much like Lara and so much like 20 years ago! I'm wondering if she's doing this on purpose, it's really so similar. On the other hand that probably means Lara's voice was basically her natural voice, which is incredible 😂
*This is incredible! Thank you for doing this interview, truly. Just hearing her voice again so many years later is really mind-blowing, she really is Lara Croft to me. I played AOD as a kid and know it like the back of my hand and STILL do, I would've been shaking talking to Jonell!*
Just hearing that voice gives me almost palpable waves of nostalgia. If there was another 'original timeline Lara' game Jonell could reprise the role and it genuinely wouldn't sound like any time has passed since 2003. Thank you both so much for this.
"Goosebumps" It's so wonderful and magic listening to Jonnel Elliott in 2020 talking about herself and Lara, her voice is still the same, that got me 🧡 Beautiful interview. Thank you so much for this amazing gift! ❤️🍀 I hope someday i'll see Jonnel playing Lara again in a new TR game
Wonderful interview! That last part about being bullied and turning to Lara for comfort was me as well! ❤️ Thank you for this amazing interview with such an icon.
Chris, this is what you do makes you one of the most wonderful people in this world. Throughout the whole conversation, I felt as if Lara Croft was talking to you. Even the emphasis of the words felt like a dialogue popping out of the game. And in my mind, you suddenly appeared in the game like a character in Angel of Darkness. God bless you. I hope this community will exist forever. THANK YOU
The very first second she started talking I mentally screamed "IT'S HER!!! He's talking with THE Lara Croft!" As much as I love Judith's version of Lara, Jonell's Lara also has a special place in my childhood's heart 💕
I cried......it's so amazing to me, cause it doesn't feel like a voice actor, it was like he was talking to Lara! AOD was my favorite game, so it's so emotional to hear Lara talking. Yay! This was amazing to watch
It's so weird to hear Jonell laugh and joke around, so mind blowing. She was literally THE 'Lara Croft' for me growing up, her and of course the amazing Judith Gibbins! Jonell has such a warm and welcoming vibe too, she's great!
I just found this interview, and it brought up so many memories of me, my brother and my dad playing through the entirety of AOD; my favorite memory was getting stuck at the ghost battle where you had to grab the painting. We were so frustrated we didn’t understand it. To make things worse, we saved at a part that killed us within seconds. Finally we called Eidos hotline for help on the game and the woman on the phone was so helpful and told us how to beat it! What a phenomenal game it was. Very underrated. Love the content ❤️
I was dying to hear from Jonell Elliott again! Glad she finally entered the social media world!! Such a cool and inspiring voice for Lara, and person in general. Hope to hear more from her in the soon. ♥️
This is truly fantastic! I'm always afraid to "meet my heroes" and usually I stay away from interviews and things like that, but she sounds like such an awesome person. Her voice is the same as it was back then, that's crazy! What I really loved about this is that I imagined a new tomb raider game with her voice in it, and just having a voice like hers would already fix 90% of what's wrong with Lara's portrayal in the reboot. While reboot Lara sounds usually conflicted and immature, Jonell's voice would automatically make Lara sound like a more well rounded and confident person. There's a sharpness and wit to her voice that hasn't quite been matched by any other actress. Truly talented voice actress ♥️
So amazing! Joelle has such a lovely voice and even lovelier personality. I loved hearing her stories with shelley as well, never knew they were acquainted but it's so nice to hear they were such good friends. So glad lara has had these wonderful ladies represent her and bring her timeless persona to life 🥰💖❤️🔥
Such an uplifting video, was wonderful to hear Jonell again and never knew her and Shelley were real life friends😄 I so look forward to the future of the TR community knowing that they’re both still involved❤️ Maybe you could get Judith Gibbons on the podcast next?✨
My faovrite Lara 😍 I grew up with Tomb Raider 1 2 and 3 on PC But I first really fell in love with the character when I got The Last Revelation on Playstation, and later with Angel of Darkness
Beautiful interview. This lady's voice as Lara Croft is part of my childhood. I think they started dubbing the saga after III, being Last Revelation the first one I played both in English and Spanish. Thank you guys for this interview. Jonell, if you are reading this, it was so nice to finally hear from you. Greetings from Spain!
For me is the Voice of Jonelle the original. I love the way she speak and she gave Lara a soul, so dark and so beautiful, smart and honest. Thanks you So much. I'm from Germany but you are the reason why I prefer to play in english!
This interview is amazing! Hearing Jonell gave me so much positive vibes. Tomb Raider series, and The Last Revelation in particular, means a lot to me. I am sure that the positive influence of Lara Croft in my childhood led me today to fight and strongly believe in gender equality. To me, Jonell Elliot's voice is the truer essence of Lara Croft. She is such an icon. This interview is gold! Thanks for doing it!
What an amazing interview! Jonell's voice is so recognisable, and you both had a great rapport. New to the channel, so thank you for the great content, and looking forward to the things to come.
This needs to be heard by the whole lara croft audience I wish they can bring her back to the franchise again her voice to me is the voice that I would thing lara croft would sound like if I was new to lara croft
By far my most favourite voice actress of Lara, something about her voice just matched Laras character perfectly. I adore angel of darkness, she brought something out in Lara that I found lacking with previous Voice actresses, in saying that, they all have their own little Lara personalities that I will always treasure forever!
The music for Angel of darkness was also so beautiful. I remember back in the day (lol), in high school, my friend Louis came over to help me play it and I got extremely frustrated at the controls (she wouldn't jump the way I wanted her too, I blame the game not Lara) and threw the controller and my friend has never let me live it down and never played it again with me HAHA! I was about 16 at the time and am now 29. Time flys huh?
22:05 yes the world is full of exciting and ancient places which can be explored with tomb raider games with some fascinating stories based on fact and fiction alike, take for instance "The Indus Valley Civilization" level 1 Mohen-jo-Daro, level 2 Harappa. I have always wondered that there are endless possibilities with Lara Croft. Glad to have found this channel.
They *MUST* bring her back. Like, she *IS* Lara Croft. If they ever want the series to return to its former glory, Jonell is the only voice actress that should be considered for Lara
Great interview! My Spanish teacher in secondary school used to go out with the guy who did all the sound effects for tomb raider. I used to think that was amazing
My childhood Lara! Deepened my love for mythology and archeology as a young girl, looked up to Lara as a strong intelligent witty woman. She was my favorite role model
Despite never finishing The Last Revelation and Chronicles, I DID quite enjoy Angel of Darkness (bugs and all) and I think a big part of that is because Jonell is SO iconic with her performance! Her voice and Lara's witty attitude in that game are a match in heaven! And her voice still sound the same! If Crystal/Eidos were ever to do a "multiverse like" TR game where we could have Jonell, Judith, Keeley it would be the best thing ever!
I’m literally in tears. She’ll always always ALWAYS be my favorite Lara.
my all-time favorite Lara.
For me it's Keeley then Jonelle
@@shiannafoxx definitely, Keeley’s my favourite
She IS the voice of Lara. I couldn't imagine anyone else more perfect.
Holy cow I can’t believe you’re talking to Lara Croft
20 years later she still sounds the same ❤️
The best Lara Croft voice! She would be PERFECT for classic TR remakes
♥️🤩 The dream

The way Jonell single handedly saved 2020 by joining instagram just amazes me 🥺💖💖🥺
With AoD being my favourite game of all time, this is giving me so much nostalgia ♥️♥️
Ayyee forever stan AOD! The industry kneecapped it and we all know it!
Sameee 😭😭😭
I can't help but see in my head that you're interviewing Lara from AoD. She sounds exactly as she did back in the day! Thank you for doing this one and bringing Raidetcast back!
She's my favourite iteration. AoD is a flawed masterpiece!

Would be a dream come true! And bring Eric Loren back! :D
@@lucasgrey9794 Eric is the voice of Kurtis Trent.

Terrific interview. I've always loved Jonell Elliott. She's the best Lara Croft, for me.

Proof: "Jean Yves! My faithful friend."
Absolutely lovely! One of the best voices
My faovrite Lara 😍
I grew up with Tomb Raider 1 2 and 3 on PC
But I first really fell in love with the character when I got The Last Revelation on Playstation, and later with Angel of Darkness
Jonell really brought something special to Lara's character!
It's only by a very slim margin, but she is my favourite voice of Lara Croft ❤ her general feistiness set her apart from the previous two
Oh my god I love this so much 😂, her personality and voice fits lara so much
Isn’t she awesome?? ♥️

I have always wondered that there are endless possibilities with Lara Croft.

Great interview! My Spanish teacher in secondary school used to go out with the guy who did all the sound effects for tomb raider. I used to think that was amazing
Oh wow!
Cried.That's how Lara sounds in my head ! She is amazing !
This video is so underrated.. Very good content!
My childhood Lara! Deepened my love for mythology and archeology as a young girl, looked up to Lara as a strong intelligent witty woman. She was my favorite role model
❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for this
Despite never finishing The Last Revelation and Chronicles, I DID quite enjoy Angel of Darkness (bugs and all) and I think a big part of that is because Jonell is SO iconic with her performance! Her voice and Lara's witty attitude in that game are a match in heaven! And her voice still sound the same! If Crystal/Eidos were ever to do a "multiverse like" TR game where we could have Jonell, Judith, Keeley it would be the best thing ever!
This was so engaging as ever, loved it.
Geez Her Mic has crystal clear quality, you can hear everything!
