Online movie rumour mill Aint It Cool News scores this report on an upcoming trailer for Par's Tomb Raider sequel The Cradle Of Life starring Oscar winner Angelina Jolie and Red Dwarf star Chris Barrie. The Jan de Bont helmed production is concluding at Pinewood Studios before post production wields scissor and tape to ready the film for it's July 25th silver screen debut. Details as follows:

"The plot looked straight forward enough. Lara is looking for "Pandoras Box" so that some bad guys do not get their hands on it first and mess up the world. Nothing new there. The action looked pretty good. There were some cool shots of Lara firing her trade mark two guns at a car and then running over the top of it. Another shot of her on a motorbike jumping off some ledge out into the air.

"There was one underwater scene with a shark which looked even more fake than the ones in the computer games, but I was told that the effects are still not finished. By far the coolest scene almost at the end of the trailer was Lara and someone else sky diving off a really tall building. [Download footage HERE] Cut in with all this was some shots of various Lara at different exotic locations. There was also a sex scene which may have involved Lara, the scene jumped by very quick!"
