The game series, started in 1996, followed Lara Croft--After four increasingly panned sequels, the games were themselves rebooted.
Angelina Jolie, her estranged dad Jon Voight and Daniel Craig starred in the 2001 film . The sequel hit theaters in 2003.
The first film scored boffo $275 million in international box-office. The sequel revenue sank with a thud of $157 million globally
“Listen, the box office, they weren’t disasters but I find it interesting that the story that we’re telling is really the story before she became Lara Croft, so it is a character piece,” King told the site
“It does have a lot of really great characters, but it’s a lot of action and a lot of fun, and for me, it’s something very different. I’ve not really done a movie like that before, but I really gravitated to rebooting this franchise and we’re going to give it a shot. "
Iron Man writers Hawk Ostby and Mark Fergus are tasked to pen the reboot
