Maximum
Edge reports today of Angelina Jolie's delight
at the prospect of a Tomb Raider sequel, dispeling
earlier fears that she would decline any further
involvement in Simon West's Tomb Raider saga because
she missed husband Billy Bob Thornton while filming
at London's Pinewood Studios.
Angelina
Jolie is delighted by plans for a sequel to the
TOMB RAIDER movie - because she misses her computer
heroine alter-ego LARA CROFT. The GIRL INTERRUPTED
beauty made the as yet unreleased film in Britain
and pines for both the character and country now
she's back on American shores. She explains, "There's
lots I got used to. The people, and I got used
to being Lara Croft so it's very hard to be regular
person again.
"I'm
going back soon though as I love England and I
will also always be happy to visit that character.
I don't feel like I've left the character because
I'll be going back and hopefully even for the
sequel if it does well." But Jolie admits her
husband BILLY BOB THORNTON has a hard time believing
she's capable of Lara Croft's fighting ability.
She says, "Billy Bob thinks it's funny because
he knows me as some funny little girl who sits
up in bed in the middle of the night eating food
and feeding my rat and being silly. But he thinks
it's great and he probably has more faith in me
than anybody and he's given me the courage to
do it.
Paramount
Pictures Tomb Raider movie, based on cyber-babe
Lara Croft, will premier across the U.S. June
15th, coming to European shores early July. A
second, full length movie trailer will head "Along
Came A Spider" on April 6th across American cinemas.
