[ March 8th 2011 ]
In a
pre-emptive strike, GK
Films has come on board to acquire the feature
film rights to TOMB RAIDER and will reboot the
successful action-adventure franchise aiming for
a 2013 release for the first film.
Produced
by Graham King and Tim Headingtom, the films will
create the daring new adventures for the young
and dynamic Lara Croft. "We are very excited to
be rebooting what is already a hugely successful
film franchise and continuing the TOMB RAIDER
phenomenon," said King.
The original
game was published in 1996 by the London based
video game company Eidos and became one of the
most successful video games of the time. Today
Eidos (including Crystal Dynamics), is part of
an international interactive entertainment group,
Square Enix and the state is set for this new
chapter in TOMB RAIDER history.
