Eidos executive Ian Livingstone has confirmed a third Tomb Raider motion picture is in the pipeline, following months of speculation that SCi Entertainment Group - parent owners of Eidos plc - has been negotiating with Paramount Pictures to continue Lara Croft's silver-screen adventures.

According to an interview with British video-game magazine Eurogamer, Livingstone also reveals information on next generation Lara Croft, and has likened the detail of future Tomb Raider video-games to "like watching television."

"I've seen some of the in-game models and it's just like watching television; if you felt you were in love with Lara Croft previously, you ain't seen nothing yet. You'll be drooling when you see the new Lara as she appears in the next iteration." Livingstone said.

On a third motion picture, Livingstone says: "There's a possibility - we've been talking to Paramount, who've agreed to assign a scriptwriter. That's nowhere near the green-light process but it's a very healthy start to have a scriptwriter which they're going to pay serious amounts of money to write the first script."
