Following rumors of Megan Fox replacing Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft, Warner Bros. Pictures and producer Dan Lin have confirmed that a reboot of the Tomb Raider film franchise is currently in early development.
There’s a problem, however, with the rights being an issue. Paramount made the first two movies based on the game, but the film rights have since reverted to Eidos. Interestingly, Time Warner upped its stake to nearly 20% in Eidos last year and film rights to the property came as part of the deal.
The project will follow in the vein of the Batman and James Bond series, ignoring previous films and reimagining the roots of Lara Croft, adventurer extraordinaire.
The project is currently in its early phases, with a writer and director yet to be attached. Casting Lara Croft is an unlikely event for a long time to come.
