Hello again Alicia fans! Our girl continues taking on the magazine covers around the globe, and up next is Madame Figaro‘s march issue. This one features a brand new photoshoot taken by the talented photographer Damon Baker, and it’s definitely my favorite spread of 2018 so far. We’ve been blessed with some stunning high quality digital scans of the spread, in which Alicia looks absolutely incredible – head over to our gallery and see for yourself! Also make sure to pick up your own copy of the magazine if you have it available in your area.

I mentioned yesterday that Alicia was set to cover the March issue of American Way magazine, and today we have HQ digital scans! They also wrote a lenghty – and very good – piece on Alicia and her long career, which you can read below under the cut.

American Way – Academy Award winner Alicia Vikander made a name for herself in nuanced art films Ex Machina and The Danish Girl. Now she’s leaping into action (and putting her ballet training to use) as fierce treasure hunter Lara Croft in Tomb Raider.

If the world can be divided into two types of people—those who like to chat to the person sitting next to them on a plane and those who don’t—you could reasonably assume that Alicia Vikander might be among the latter. For one thing, she’s famous. In fact, this month the Academy Award-winning Swedish actress will make the leap to action star as Lara Croft, the heroine in the Tomb Raider reboot, a role played by Angelina Jolie back in 2001 and based on the wildly popular video game series. Vikander is also intensely private, with a knack for dodging even the most innocuous questions. Asked about the last time she broke a rule, for instance, she laughs at a memory, then shakes her head: “No, I don’t want to say that to you.”

A new day, a new magazine feature for Alicia! As a part of the ongoing Tomb Raider promotion, our girl will cover the April 2018 issue of Elle in the UK. We now have the first digital scans over in our gallery, and they feature a gorgeous new photoshoot! The issue comes out on March 7, so make sure to pick up your own copy next week. For her interview, she opens up about harassment in the film industry, married life and how she prefers to avoid the limelight. You can read an extract below…

On harassment in the film industry
‘I’ve been very fortunate that I haven’t had any sexual harassment on set. But I’ve been in situations where people in power have put me on the spot, or made me feel stupid and young when I wasn’t able to express myself publicly. Once, an older female co-star actually said on my behalf, “That’s not OK.” I can now speak up and say that is not fine, and I’ve been given the fortunate position now of not being, in the same way, afraid of losing my job, which was deep down the reason you don’t want to be trouble. You don’t want to be difficult…’

On moving to Lisbon with her husband, Michael Fassbender
‘When I met my husband three and a half years ago, he had mentioned he’d been to Lisbon and loved it, and I knew friends who were moving out there. And that was a time when I was just starting to feel really at home in London, but after Brexit I think I was like, “Meh, you know what, I want to stay in Europe”.’

On her first meetings with Michael Fassbender – on the dancefloor at Toronto International Film Festival, and then on the dancefloor after the BAFTAs:
‘The first two times we met, we didn’t chat, we only danced.’

On training for Tomb Raider
‘For three months before filming, I started every morning with an hour’s workout. Then there was a lot of eating going on; I had to have five meals a day. I wanted Lara to be strong. I’m very petite myself, and I wanted the audience to find the action sequences plausible – to believe that she could do it, that she could lift herself up with her own bodyweight.’

On the new Lara Croft
‘Sure, Lara is a sex symbol in some ways but for me, what makes a woman or a man attractive is someone who dares to speak up, who dares to show their personality. It’s tough being a young girl at this time, you know? I’m now working in an industry which lives on creating an image, a fantasy and I feel like I need to show younger women that is what it is.’

On how her Swedish culture means she naturally prefers not to stand out
‘You shouldn’t be too good, or do something different… In a way it’s great to grow up with that, as it makes you very grounded, but also a bit scared of standing out and making a big leap away from the rest of the group.’

Alicia can now be seen in 3 new magazines, in addition to the very many we’ve already posted about in the last couple of weeks! These are Glamour Mexico (March), Fotogramas Spain (March) and SFX Magazine (April). The Glamour one features different photoshoot images of Alicia then the rest so far this year, so this one is probably my favorite. All are part of the on-going “Tomb Raider” promotion, and they mostly discuss the film and Alicia’s preparation. I’ll translate the parts of the articles which give us new information this weekend, but it looks like most of the articles mention the same things we already know. But they still feature gorgeous photoshoots and stills, so make sure to pick up your own copies if you have them in your area! And head over to our gallery to find the digital scans:

Mini magazine scans update, yay! We’re going to be very spoiled with lots of new Alicia content the coming weeks, as Tomb Raider promotion is going to land our girl a lot of magazine features, photoshoots and other promotional events. I’ve now added scans of all the magazines featuring Alicia I could find so far, but I expect this to be the first out of many magazine updates. If you know Alicia is featured in one in your country, please let us know by commenting to one of our posts – we’ll do our best to track down some scans.

Hello Alicia fans! With the Tomb Raider premiere fast approaching, Alicia will likely be doing a lot of interviews, appear in several magazines and attend plenty of press related events the next few weeks. And it looks like the buzz is about to start now! As part of the film promotion, Alicia is currently covering three different magazines: Plaza Kvinna in Sweden, Grazia in Bulgaria and Glamour in Russia. These all feature stunning new photos of of our girl, and I can’t wait to see the full photoshoots!

You can check out a preview of the Plaza Kvinna cover at their official instagram here, and the two other covers below. I hope to have scans from the full spreads, as well as photoshoot outtakes, in the next coming days. Stay tuned!

Hello Alicia fans, and happy new year! I hope you’ve all had the best possible start to the new year so far. For our first update this year, I have updated our gallery with some new magazine scans from different January and February issues. With Tomb Raider now only being two months away, Alicia will likely be featured in many magazines the next few weeks – make sure to follow us over at twitter for all the latest updates! The ones I’ve come across so far are Total Film, Empire and Cinemania. Thank you to my good friend Luciana from Jessica Chastain Network for sending some of these our way.

I have also added some events and Tomb Raider promotionals/posters which we were missing, so make sure to check out our “Last Uploads” as well. I’ll try not to fall behind again, as my schedule is finally easing up a bit. Stay tuned for many updates as we start getting ready for the Tomb Raider madness to begin!

Our girl continues to be a desired cover girl for magazines, and is currently covering the Winter 2016 issue of Porter Magazine! She was photographed by Ryan McGinley, in a photoshoot styled very differently from what she has done in the past. The spread is getting both praise and critique by fashion lovers, and while it might not be my personal favorite Alicia cover either, she looks so amazing in the photoshoot! It’s a must check-out; enjoy the pretty!

We hope to have hiqh quality scans with time, but for now, make sure to purchase your very own copy of the magazine! You can buy it online at this page.

Alicia to Porter:
On her relationship with Michael Fassbender and working with him on The Light Between Oceans: “We’ve never hidden the fact that we’re a couple… He’s extremely hardworking. He was like, ‘Give me something new! I just need a new idea. I need to do it differently.’ I just thought that was cool. Because that was what I was trying to do, too. To push each other and come up with new ideas each time.”

On the Brexit vote: “I couldn’t believe my eyes. I am European. I grew up in a small country. Without it, I would not be where I am right now in my career – I wouldn’t have been able to live with my three girlfriends in London. As a foreigner, I probably wouldn’t have been cast in Anna Karenina if they’d had to pay for a working visa. I hope here in America that it opens people’s eyes that you can’t just let things happen. You need to get involved.”

On working with women: “I can count on my hands the scenes I’ve done with women.” [She recalls acting in a scene with Holliday Grainger for the upcoming Tulip Fever.] “At the end, I was like, ‘That was fun.’ And then I kind of looked up at her and we talked about it. ‘Something’s different. What is it?’ And I realized that I hadn’t had a proper two-page scene with another woman, just playing off each other.”
