Former Bros heartthrob Luke Goss will reportedly take a starring role opposite Angelina Jolie in the upcoming Tomb Raider movie sequel which begins principle photography in August. Goss, who recently made a major appearance in the vampire flick Blade II, is also penned to star in the Midas Films backed East End gangster movie Charlie. Producers have reworked their filming schedule to accommodate Goss' role opposite Jolie.

Paramount Pictures Tomb Raider sequel will begin filming on August 26th at Pinewood Studios, London, and on location in China and Africa with Speed director Jan de Bont helming the Lara Croft franchise vehicle. Angelina Jolie returns as fearless buxom gunslinger Lara Croft sent to rescue the world from the exploits of an evil Chinese crime syndicate led by oriental crime lord Chen Lo.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (working title) retains the acting services of Chris Barrie as Lara's fussing companion Hillary. John Voight, Jolie's real-life and on-screen father, has also expressed an interest in resurrecting his role from the grave.
