TOMB RAIDER MOVIE RELEASE DATE SERIES
It wasn't too long before Hollywood took the same cue, preparing a reboot of the film series in the similar vein, which is set to star Alicia Vikander ( Ex Machina) in the title role and will be directed by Roar Uthaug ( The Wave).
She was also one of very few gaming icons to spawn a successful live action film - the 2001 star vehicle for Angelina Jolie.Ī reboot of the game series in 2013 by Crystal Dynamics re-framed the series on Lara's humanity, with an origin story focusing more on survival and learning one's own inner strength. Partially popularized for her Indiana Jones flavored archaeological adventures, and partially for her polygon pin-up girl status, Lara quickly became a gaming icon. The Tomb Raider franchise has a long and storied history, beginning in 1996 with heroine Lara Croft's first appearance on the original PlayStation (and the less-successful Sega Saturn).
