Eidos exec talks next-gen Lara, new Tomb Raider movie
“Like watching television.” That’s how Eidos exec Ian Livingstone described the forthcoming next-gen entry in the classic Tomb Raider franchise during an interview with Eurogamer TV.
“I’ve seen some of the in-game models and it’s just like watching television; if you felt you were in love with Lara Croft previously, you ain’t seen nothing yet. You’ll be drooling when you see the new Lara as she appears in the next iteration,” said Livingstone.
Livingstone also revealed that plans for a third Tomb Raider movie, which will reportedly have Angelina Jolie once again playing the role of Lara Croft, is in the works. Lara Croft’s two previous movie outings have netted hefty revenues of US$ 430 million.
“There’s a possibility – we’ve been talking to Paramount, who’ve agreed to assign a scriptwriter,” he told EGTV. “That’s nowhere near the green-light process but it’s a very healthy start to have a scriptwriter which they’re going to pay serious amounts of money to write the first script.”
