My Take
Alicia Vikander is one of those rare actors who makes you forget she's acting — she just inhabits a role so completely that you feel like you're watching a real person unravel on screen. The Swedish dancer-turned-actress exploded onto the international stage in 2015 with a ridiculous double punch: Ex Machina, where she played an AI with an eerily calm menace, and The Danish Girl, which earned her a well-deserved Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. What I love about her is that she brings a physical intelligence to her performances — you can see the ballet training in how she moves and holds herself — and she doesn't coast on her looks. Taking on Lara Croft in 2018 was a bold mainstream swing, and even if the film itself was uneven, she committed fully. She's quietly one of the most interesting actors of her generation.
