Next Tomb Raider movie to be based on a younger Lara

laracroft

Looks like the next Tomb Raider flick will be more of an “origins” experience by focusing on a a younger version of Lara Croft.

Producer Dan Lin confirmed the project during the premiere of his film, Terminator: Salvation.

“We’re rebooting Lara Croft. Really excited – it’s a great origin story that we’re going to tell. A very character-oriented I would say more realistic than the past Lara Croft movies,” he told About.com.

“I would say it’s like Terminator – character-driven action. I think for me the Lara Croft games and movies have gone a little too action-oriented. I wanted to have action, but with character.”

An actress has yet to be cast, but it has been rumored that Megan Fox is up for the role.

Thanks, TombRaiderFanboy.

    Forget Megan Fox, this should be your title image.

    I wanna see Megan Fox snuggle up to a real man, rather than that fairy Shia Lebouf. That supposed love between them in Transformers is the worst part about the movie.

  13. I thought about putting one up, but I figured you guys could search for ones you liked better than the more “conservative” one I almost posted. ;-)

    Like who? You?

    Is Megan Fox busty enough to fill Lara’s triple E’s? Also question her ability to pull off a suitable English accent

  16. It’s time like this I feel embarrassed to be a man…

    So you’re the sort of person who takes maracas into a cinema, I fucking knew I wasn’t imagining things.

  22. SilentLoner said:

    she is such a tramp but its like the those actresses pretending to be prostitutes on csi you know they play skanky women but they are hot so who cares?

  23. anasui said:

    well if with maracas we mean penis, then yeah, I bring my maraca wherever I go

  24. TheTwelve said:

    Yep, Michael….like me. EXACTLY.

    well you throw Megan Fox in a topic, what do you expect? Shakespeare?

  26. Psychotext said:

    Something looks very wrong about that pic.

    ok no ofense guys but shia lebouf is a damn good actor. i think he was awesome in transformers and that megan was kind of like a side kick. u know, every movie who has as the primary character a male, needs a hot girl as a secondary character just to sell better. it’s common sense. as for mrs. fox? i still prefer angelina over her a thousand times. but hey, if they r returning to the origins or whatever someone else should play lara’s role, not her. she’s definetly not the one to play this character. right now, maybe it’s just me, but when i see lara i see angelina, a strong, independent, smart and beautiful woman, NOT hot! if they cast her for this role, everyone who’s going to watch this movie is going to think “hot hot hot” and idk about u but if i want to see that i go and watch porn not tomb raider. when i will go to see tr i want to see tr and not some cheap replica who’s there just to sell.
