Deadline says:
The Iron Man and Cowboys & Aliens writing team of Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby have been hired by GK Films to script the rebooted Tomb Raider film franchise. They will create a new adventure storyline for archaeologist/adventuress Lara Croft, played in the original Paramount films by Angelina Jolie. GK partners Graham King and Tim Headington are producing.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
Hmm not a bad pair to help make this reboot happen. Personally I'm okay with not having another Lara Croft movie. The first two weren't bad, but I just don't see another one bringing anything new to the action/adventure genre.
I'm perfectly fine with another Lara Croft movie as long as it's done well. Here's my only reservation about these writers: They're more action writers. Though they've done other things (CHildren of Men, First Snow), when getting into this realm theirs lean more to the action. I think Lara Croft should be much more about the adventure aspect of the action-adventure genre.
I know some people will be like "what's the difference?" or feel there hardly is one, but I think there's actually a huge difference between action and adventure. And that there's a lot of room to sway between the two in the action/adventure genre. I just don't want to see it made into some blockbuster big-time action movie, rather than a wild-ride adventure movie with some action sprinkled in.
I liked the Lara Croft movies and Jolie playing the part but if they find someone else to play the Croft part I'm not so sure I could deal with that because it just wouldn't be the same. Jolie is still young enough to do the action thing and she loves that kinda stuff but they'll be looking for someone younger probably.
What are they going to do with another movie, i can't really think of it, hope they come out something different as the last two :)
She's too busy feeding the kids to eat herself silly. Anyway..she's thin but I thought she was always kinda thin wasn't she?
It doesn't matter because she's not up for this part anyway. We'll see who ends up with it. I just hope they get someone good that isn't afraid of doing some of the stunt work themselves and can do some good acting at the same time.
