It's
official - Tomb Raider The Movie, directed by
Simon West (Elizabeth & Con Air) and packing the
power of Paramount Pictures, begins filming Monday
at Pinewood Studios, London after months of preparation.
Angelina Jolie, cast to play adventurer heroine
Lara Croft, was in London Thursday for the British
Premier of Gone In 60 Seconds where she was said
to be excited about the upcoming role.
"I've done
just about everything I could possibly do to get ready
and I think its going to be good. When I was first told
about it, I laughed and thought 'you're out of your
mind', I actually hung up the phone. "But then I read
the script, I met Simon (West) and he talked about all
the things he wanted to do and I thought 'I like this',
I like who Lara's becoming and if I can pull it off
then it's gonna be a great film. If I can do it, and
survive it."
