“I could never compete with what Angelina did. She made her into an icon because she is an icon,” Alicia recently expressed in an interview with Games Radar. “But this is our different interpretation, we’re focused on the reboot of the game which came out a few years ago.”

“It’s the origin story – we’re not trying to copy or reinvent what she did,” Alicia concluded.
