It is now being reported that Warners Bros. Pictures and producer Dan Lin ("Sherlock Holmes," "Jonny Quest") are in early development on a reboot of the video game turned film franchise "Tomb Raider" says The Hollywood Reporter.
The rumored recasting as well seems to be a rights issue. Though Paramount previously made the two movies based on the game, the rights have since reverted to Eidos. Time Warner upped its stake to nearly 20% in Eidos in December and films rights to the property became part of that deal.
Much like the recent Batman and James Bond series, the new project will ignore the previous films and will reimagine the origins of Lara Croft, her love interest and the main villain.
As the project is an open-writing assignment, a writer and director are yet to be attached making the casting of Croft herself an unlikely event for a long time yet (sorry Megan Fox fans).
The hugely popular game series, first published in 1996, followed the daredevil archaeologist Lara Croft on a series of global missions. After four subsequent and increasingly panned sequels, the series was put in the hands of new developers who effectively 'rebooted' the series with the game "Tomb Raider: Legend". A direct sequel to that, "Tomb Raider: Underworld", hit stores in November.
Angelina Jolie, Jon Voight and Daniel Craig starred in the first film adaptation in 2001, while Jolie, Gerard Butler and Ciaran Hinds starred in the second in 2003. Despite dreadful reviews the first film scored a major $275 million in international box-office. Reviews were better though still dire for the sequel, while revenue notably sank with only a $157 million global tally.

News footage captured a shadowy object flashing across the sky before the new President’s speech.
The high-speed object appears to streak behind the Washington Monument and then disappear into the clouds.
The CNN clip, featuring veteran US broadcaster Wolf Blitzer, has attracted thousands of hits on video-sharing website YouTube.
UFO experts are convinced it shows an alien craft speeding behind the 555ft-high monument – but sceptics say it was a bird or a bat.
Enthusiast Nick Pope said: “We know it is not an aircraft because a strict no-fly zone was imposed over the area.
“It seems to have been going a little bit too fast for any type of bird.”
During the election run-up, UFO bloggers claimed mysterious “orbs” were spotted over an Obama rally in Chicago.
Calls for him to release all information held on UFOs attracted over 170,000 votes on his new online “Citizen Briefing Book” last week – more than any other subject.
Mr Pope said: “Despite the economic downturn and the conflict in Afghanistan, the number one topic people were pressuring the President over was UFOs. It proves this is more than a fringe issue.”
THE quartet who played at the inauguration have admitted they were miming – after recording the music two days before.
They said sub-zero temperatures would have put their instruments out of tune.
