[ April 25th 2002 ]

Paramount Pictures Lara Croft Tomb Raider sequel will commence principal photography at Pinewood Studios in May 2002 with Angelina Jolie on-board as British aristocrat Lara Croft. The videogame adaptation is queued behind Ian Flemming's Die Another Day which concludes stunt sequences on Europe's largest soundstage later this month.

Jolie, currently shooting the Martin Campbell helmed refugee drama Beyond Borders in Thailand, agreed to two further Lara Croft movies despite warning producers that the screenplay must fare better than the original for her to resume her role. Two script writers have tendered screenplays to producers.
