Top Billing meets South African actor Keenan Arrison
South African actor Keenan Arrison takes us inside four blockbuster days he spent filming his scenes with Tomb Raider and Oscar winner Alicia Vikander!
Filming of the new Tomb Raider movie happened partly in South Africa and when it did, homegrown heart-throb Keenan Arrison made it count. Sharing screen-time with Oscar winner Alicia Vikander, he leaves a memorable impression – up on the big screen.
The all action Lara Croft character from Tomb Raider is a leap for Swedish actress Alicia Vikander who won her Oscar in the drama The Danish Girl. Keenan had the same jump to make.
The young star grew up watching movies with his film-loving grandfather. Now he’s the star of epic fight sequences designed by Grant Powell.
Keenan spent a long time developing his performance technique at drama school. On Tomb Raider he had to cram years of stunt training into a matter of days. The four days which Keenan filmed with Alicia combine in thrilling scenes and make for nail-biting viewing!
The film is a credit to every South African in the cast, crew and stunt teams whose talent truly brought the story to life.
