![]() ![]() Tomb Raider 2 plot: What will Tomb Raider 2 be about?Įverything that follows is based on the original idea that the sequel would follow up on the events of the first movie. With the latest news, though, it seems Green is no longer attached either, but maybe she'll be brought in for the reboot. In May 2021, she confirmed she had finished the first draft for the sequel with the title Tomb Raider: Obsidian. She has been nominated several times for her work and has won film festival awards for Sightseers, a previous collaboration with Wheatley, so fans can be assured that the film is in safe hands.Behind the scenes, Misha Green was set to write and direct the sequel. Wheatly will be joined by his wife, Amy Jump, who is penning the screenplay for the movie. And as many of the Tomb Raider games have been quite dark anyway, supernaturally speaking, it might be that Wheatly's experience in the horror field will serve him well here. Wheatly is an accomplished director, and many others before him have moved from small-scale indie flicks to big-budget blockbusters ( Spiderman director Jon Watts included), so he might do good work on the movie. ![]() Of course, Lara Croft fans shouldn't worry too much. He has mainly worked with low budgets, and his films have been decidedly niche, so it will be quite interesting to see how he handles the film. This is quite surprising as, despite his work on the relatively small scale action movie Free Fire, he probably wasn't the first person movie fans expected to direct the film.

However, we might see the return of Lu Ren (Daniel Ru), the ship captain who aided Lara in the last movie, as he proved to be a popular character with audiences. Lara foiled Trinity's attempt to leak a virus into the world in the last movie (it's a pity she couldn't do the same in the real world), so it might be that Ana will be out for revenge against our formidable heroine in the new movie.ĭominic West, the actor who played Lara's father in the last movie, is unlikely to return, as h is character sacrificed himself to save his daughter towards the end of the last film, and we won't be seeing that film's villain, Matthias Vogel (played by Walter Goggins) either, as he perished in the first movie too. If the sequel follows on from the last movie's ending, we can expect to see Kristen Scott Thomas back again as Ana Miller, the business partner of Lara's father and, as it turned out at the end of the 2018 movie, the villainous head of the nefarious organization, Trinity. Fans will be glad to see her back, but as to who might be joining her, we aren't quite sure. She acquitted herself well in the role too, not only within her performance as the character but through the work she did beforehand to get the ripped physique needed for the part. ![]() This is unsurprising, as she had already expressed an interest in a second go-round of the character, even before the first film was released. ![]() We don't have concrete information about casting just yet, but we do know that Alicia Vikander will be returning to the role of Lara Croft.

With a new movie on the way, now is as good a time as any to unearth any nuggets of information about the next cinematic adventure of Lara Croft. While Lara continued to surface in various video games in the years that followed, we didn't get to see her back on the big screen again until Vikander starred in the hit movie directed by Norwegian director, Roar Uthaug. She returned to the less-than-thrilling Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life in 2003, before bowing out of the role for good. In 2001, Angelina Jolie took on the persona of the female heroine in the appropriately titled Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and while the film wasn't particularly very good, as is the case with most video game movie adaptations, Jolie acquitted herself well to the part. ![]()
