For all of you drooling Lara Croft fans out there (don't be offended, I'm including myself too in the category), there's word on the street that a third Tomb Raider movie is on the way. And yes, it's Angelina Jolie they want for the starring actress again. Ian Livingstone, one of
the original creators of the game, sat down with Digital Spy telling them of the what's on the horizon for the third film in the TR series: "At this moment in time it's still not green-lit, but the signs are there. Paramount have talked about the film for a long time, and I've had meetings with them... They're willing to put a scriptwriter on board. Angelina Jolie has an option to do a third movie." Although I can't possibly find anything wrong with Angelina Jolie, I happened to take a look at the new model for the in-game Lara and I have to say, she's not half bad. I wouldn't mind seeing her in action. Of course, a third TR movie has now been announced only because Anniversary is prepping for launch, and what better time to release it than along with the most anticipated title in the video game series? Anniversary is said to re-take players through the stages of the original Tomb Raider game released for the PlayStation console and PC, with everything tweaked to the max. Plus, gamers enjoy bringing back memories playing older instalments of their favorite series. Livingstone also reckons that "when they see how successful Anniversary will be and realize that the world is still in love with Lara, they'll be more inclined to exercise their option." Need I spell it for you? TOMB RAIDER 3: The Movie is coming.

| Comment #4.1 by: CHRISSY on 24 Sep 2009, 14:19 GMT | WOW! OLD SCHOOL, 1ST GAME FOR PS1 (AND ONE OF THE BEST!) IT'S NICE TO KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY FAN! |
| Comment #5 by: David on 10 Jan 2009, 04:51 UTC | reply to this comment | I do hope Angelina does this movie, she rocked at the last 2 and she does deffinantly fit the part of Lara, its just her look too. I also hopes its about Natla and her mothers death also, i finished Tomb Raider Underworld, it'd be sweet if it was about that one |
| Comment #6 by: tanya on 15 Jan 2009, 15:11 UTC | reply to this comment | I hope they do a better film this time...i liked the first tomb raider but in the second film angelina was NOT giving it her best...it looked like she couldn't be bothered to do it.There was one point in the second tombe raider that i thought she did her OWN stunts.I hope they let some one else play lara croft this time instead of angelina jolie.....as for angelina she supposed to have finished her acting carrer all together!! |
| Comment #7 by: Isabel on 29 Jan 2009, 00:26 UTC | reply to this comment | My guess is angelina is not gonna be in the 3rd TombRaider film,They say it's Gonna be Megan Fox!!!That's preety cool |
| Comment #8 by: Cam on 18 Mar 2009, 09:03 UTC | reply to this comment | This 3rd movie is not going to be angelina as Lara, it is either going to be Rhona Mitra or Megan Fox, whi i think is definitly better the Angelina. |
| Comment #9 by: PersiaViika on 12 May 2009, 13:03 UTC | reply to this comment | Well I'm happy to hear that it may come into play again. Big fan of Lara croft and Angelina Jolie......
I'm not going to get all PC but...
Angelina Jolie: Looks like her, acts like her, one of the toughest and baddest actresses in the business. End of story....However, I do want her to gain weight.
Rhona Mitra: Very bad a-- and would fit the part as well, but I just dont see her portraying Lara better than Angelina.
Meagan Fox: She's just hot. If they give her the role for Lara it might as well be a live action photo shoot. Get real people....I really like Meagan, but I guess I have to see her in roles that can make people say "Damn.....that b---- is crazy" Or "She kicked a-- in that film". Plenty of those films under Angelina's belt. Heck....I guess they can give her a shot as well.
I'm rooting for Mrs. Jolie-Pitt. |
| Comment #9.1 by: Dayang Nilore on 02 Jan 2012, 13:03 GMT | I second emotion to your comment...how we wish that the 3rd Lara Croft will be Mrs. Jolie-Pitt |cheers| |
| Comment #10 by: keylargo on 18 May 2009, 00:20 UTC | reply to this comment | It wouldn't be TR without Angelina. But she really needs to gain some weight to get back into character. I don't see her doing it, if for no other reason than that. Plus, they rarely come back for a third. Angelina had her day, but I think she's moving on, those action flicks are hard to do, and she's not in the shape she was. |
| Comment #11 by: Millatime34 on 28 May 2009, 22:19 UTC | reply to this comment | I heard that they are trying to do a younger Lara. I've also heard with that the case, they are looking at Megan Fox from Transformers... |
| Comment #12 by: William on 08 Jun 2009, 01:04 UTC | reply to this comment | I agree about the new model. Alison is great to portray a YOUNGER LARA. Some of the moves she showed, the clothes, the accent, her looks. A PERFECT NEW MODEL for the Tomb Raider Film. She said she would like to work in Film/Acting. We're to expect a younger Lara.. this gurl would be perfect for TR3. |
| Comment #13 by: Mikell on 15 Jun 2009, 18:01 UTC | reply to this comment | They can't go anywhere but down after Angelina. ANYone else will be a dissapointment. If AJ isn't Lara it will be Flop. |
| Comment #14 by: orlie on 03 Jul 2009, 03:14 UTC | reply to this comment | i hope the third movie is based on either the angel of darkness or legend...
id like 2 see legend being portrayed in film...and the fourth movie tomb raider underworld |
| Comment #15 by: frankie smales on 22 Sep 2009, 16:26 UTC | reply to this comment | if i had an chioce for lara it will have to be rhona mitra because
she played her before at convensions and after her performances
in doomsday and underworld 3 she's the convincing choice to
play lara the other choice is brit actress keeley hawes who was
in the brit espionage spy tv drama spooks and ashes to ashes
but my third one is keira knightley from pirates of the caribbean trilogy
but who knows angelina jolie will surprise everyone by returning
back maybe as laras mother in flashback scenes |
| Comment #16 by: Serena on 25 Nov 2009, 13:20 UTC | reply to this comment | Angelina Jolie for Tomb Raider III!!!! She's perfect!!! |
| Comment #17 by: OMer on 26 Dec 2009, 00:58 UTC | reply to this comment | i think angelina jolie fill up perfectly in the Lara corft character i do not see any reason to chage when the first movie was realsed even long time ago that happens i picture angelina as the best actress performing Lara it would be a little dissapointing seeing another woman doing this but i would be happy at leat to see the third secuel of Tomb Raider And Please More Action than the 2nd movie |
| Comment #18 by: kacie on 15 Mar 2010, 15:36 UTC | reply to this comment | I think that their should be a third tomb raider movie but with the orginal characters from the first movie which mean angelina jolie, noah taylor, iain glen, daniel craig. NO LOOK A LIKES!!! |
| Comment #19 by: Anand mehta on 10 May 2010, 07:19 UTC | reply to this comment | Without angelina Jolie the movie would be like pot without water
I have wathed both the tomb raiders movie & there's no better match than Angelina Jolie
the movie will be big flop if it stars another character |
| Comment #19.1 by: ma on 16 Oct 2010, 00:07 GMT | I agree with you i am myself a huge fan of the game and the movie and a HUGE fan of Angelina Jolie if she don't do the 3rd movie it would a BIG flop |
| Comment #19.2 by: Dayang Nilore on 02 Jan 2012, 13:04 GMT | Cannot imagine another Tomb Raider without Angelina :3 |
| Comment #20 by: heri januar on 09 Jun 2010, 02:52 UTC | reply to this comment | I actually prefer Angelina Jolie who plays Lara Croft, but any role will hopefully not disappoint his fans.
I can not wait to watch the movie Tomb Raider 3 |
| Comment #21 by: **sugarmonky**:-* on 15 Oct 2010, 19:59 UTC | reply to this comment | I think that Angelina Jolie was a great actress for the movie and the video game character is quite similar to her as well! I enjoy Tomb Raider movies and this is coming from a young and very intelligent teen |
| Comment #22 by: ;LILCA on 11 Nov 2010, 19:14 UTC | reply to this comment | KAYA SCODELARIO SHE'S ALREADY GOT THE BRIT ACCENT |
| Comment #24 by: Phyl on 24 Mar 2011, 21:49 UTC | reply to this comment | In my opinion Angelina Jolie is the face of the TR series and that making a third (and presumably final) TR movie with a different female lead would be a mistake. I would love to see it go grittier, kind of like the newer James Bond movies. Have something happen where she loses her toys, her castle, and has to be more resourceful "out in the wild." Use survival skills, weapon manufacturing from whatever she can find and her intense fighting skills. I could go on, but then I'd probably have a rough script =) |
| Comment #25 by: Jo Anna B on 28 May 2011, 23:31 UTC | reply to this comment | I Positively REFUSE & I mean REFUSE to watch a Tomb Raider if they cast Megan Fox as Lara Croft. She reminds me of a sneaky cat who just killed a canary, and further I do not think she has the acting skills required to play Lara Croft well acting skills period, or the Hollyweird credentials to carry a movie as the primary lead...So if they want this movie goers box office money GET Angelina Jolie she IS Lara Croft Tomb Raider!!!!! |
| Comment #25.1 by: deki on 11 Jul 2011, 13:52 GMT | When is coming lara croft tomb raider 3 movie with beautiful angelina jolie ;) |
| Comment #26 by: Heather on 13 Oct 2011, 10:38 UTC | reply to this comment | I have literally been playing Tomb Raider since I was 7 years old. lol The first one I played was 'The Last Revelation' and ever since I've been hooked. |
| Comment #27 by: Emily on 13 Nov 2011, 18:41 UTC | reply to this comment | Lara crogt isnt lara croft without Angelina Jolie, it wouldnt be right not to hav her! shes amazing!!! nobody can replace her and also the story would be weird if angie isnt in it, it wouldnt be lara!! |
| Comment #28 by: Mario_G on 27 Feb 2012, 18:55 UTC | reply to this comment | I truely hope that Angelina does the 3rd movie and even a 4th one would be great. I think that she is perfect for that role and I'd be greatly disappointed if she doesn't play Lara Croft in the next movie(s). I'll keep my fingers crossed that Angelina will be back as I'm sure a lot of other people will too. | |
