I walked out on the first movie 20 minutes in. This just after staying the entire 36 hours (apparently) of A.I.

Alicia Vikander to Star as Lara Croft in 'Tomb Raider'

Alicia Vikander to Star as Lara Croft in 'Tomb Raider'

Lara Croft has been found.

Alicia Vikander has signed on to star in Tomb Raider for MGM, Warner Bros and GK Films, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

The movie project, which has Roar Uthaug (The Wave) on board to direct, will tell the story of a young and untested Croft fighting to survive her first adventure.

Angelina Jolie famously starred in the two previous Tomb Raider movies, 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and 2003's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, and those movies established her as a bankable, franchise-carrying international star.

Vikander, who won an Oscar for her turn in The Danish Girl, is hoping for a similar path and the movie gives the actress her own franchise after proving her salt in acclaimed dramas.

Not sure that I can buy her as a survivalist bad ass like the video game. I am going to be real curious to see the first trailer.

You do know that this picture is a Photoshop job, right? You can just tell by the size of her head in relation to the body.

Nick Frost!

Looks pretty good, but EXACTLY like the video game. Definitely different from the Angelina Jolie versions.
