GK Films
have announced they will partner with MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer)
to produce a new Tomb Raider film. Graham King
took to Twitter to announce the collaboration,
having secured the film rights from Square Enix
in 2011. MGM also commented on the collaboration.
"Graham
is one of the premier producers in this industry
and I am delighted to be working with him on this
exciting franchise," MGM CEO Gary Barber said
in a statement. "We look forward to developing
more projects together in the future."
Two previous
films based on the video-game franchise starred
Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie and performed
well at the box office. Lara Croft Tomb Raider
raked in $274 million worldwide and The Cradle
of Life tallied up $156 million. Angelina Jolie
is not expected to reprise her role as Lara Croft.
