French Lara Croft Actor Serves Aspyr With Legal Notice Over Alleged AI Voice in Tomb Raider Remasters

Cadol is seeking a pause in sales along with documentation of copies sold after fans flagged robotic‑sounding lines from an August update.

Overview

  • Françoise Cadol alleges Aspyr used artificial intelligence to replicate her French Lara Croft performance in Tomb Raider 4–6 Remastered without consent.
  • Her lawyer, Jonathan Elkaim, says the disputed lines sound metallic and choppy and accuses the publisher of misleading consumers.
  • Players reported differences after an August 14 patch that, per Aspyr’s notes, restored missing voiceovers and adjusted overly quiet lines.
  • Cadol’s formal notice asks that the collection be withdrawn from sale and that Aspyr disclose how many copies have been sold.
  • Aspyr has not publicly responded to Cadol’s claim; in a related Brazilian case, the company apologized to actor Lene Bastos and pledged to remove AI-generated lines in an update.
