Square Enix Global and Crystal Dynamics released their high-profile reboot of the Tomb Raider game franchise in 2013. In that game the creators took a "Batman Begins," "Casino Royale", approach where we followed a younger and more realistic 21-year-old version of British archaeologist Lara Croft. The story showcases how she started out as a frightened young woman who is forced to become a hardened survivor when she is shipwrecked on a dangerous island.
The high-profile title won major acclaim from all corners and was ultimately a good seller.
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.
Iron Man writers Hawk Ostby and Mark Fergus were tasked to pen the reboot script at first. Then "Fright Night" remake writer Marti Noxon--who got her start working on the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" TV series took over.
Graham King will produce the pic with Denis O'Sullivan, Cassidy Lange, and Jon Berg.
