[ June 20th 2001 ]

Paramount Pictures Lara Croft: Tomb Raider motion picture released across the United States last Friday raking in $48.2 million on it's opening weekend, and movie Director Simon West has reportedly already spoken to Oscar winning Lara Croft star Angelina Jolie on a series of Tomb Raider sequels:

"When a movie is over, you normally don't want to see that character again. That's the last thing you need," Simon West told information carrier Ananova, "but we were both talking about our schedules in terms of making another. Angelina said she really felt at home with Lara, which is weird because this woman keeps knives and guns under her bed. Then I thought about it and realised that, like Lara, Angelina doesn't take s*** from anybody. I think she's a genius."

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider chronicles the adventures of a British archaeologist [Jolie] sent on a quest for an ancient time-travelling device called the Clock of Ages. Helmed by acclaimed Director Simon West, plans are already underway for two sequels after both West and Jolie confirmed earlier this year that they would continue with the three-movie deal.
