TOMB RAIDER being Re-booted!

Yet these same guy's are jerking off over a 50 year old Iron Man and a 45 year old Batman.
 
Keep in mind that Ridley has agreed to do 'Kolma', which is a smaller film in-between the big Star Wars. People..don't be ignorant to think she just 'passed' on Tomb Raidee due to her ego.

she did'nt pass she was never offered the role they met with her and liked vikander more
 
The trades said that Vikander was the leading choice and I imagine she would be after the Oscar win. I know the fanboys think that the Oscar doesn't mean anything but it means something in Hollywood.
 
yup it also helps she is in the new Bourne movie and has another oscar contender this year with The Light Between Oceans with Michael Fassbender
 
I do think that Oscar helped a hell of a lot. Serious marketing tool as well.
 
Must have acting Oscar in order to play Lara Croft. Ridley don't got. :word:
 
Yeah, Lara Croft now has two out of two Oscar winners.

Only Batman has more with three out of five Oscar Winners. Four out of five Oscar nominees.
 
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here, an oscar can't fix a bad script

There arent many charismatic women lead, possible blockbuster franchises in Hollywood and this could be the one. I am pretty sure just on that thing Hollywood wont frick up. And giving we got not only talented actress for female lead, but Oscar winning one just tell confirms it.

Still not sure current director and screenwriters will remain same.

All for this casting and am glad it's not Ridley. Not because I dislike her at all, but because she already has Star Wars and we really need to spread these action heroine franchise roles out.

I feel the same when people suggest Pratt for Indiana Jones or ESPECIALLY Han Solo, I cringe at the lack of inspiration in that fancasting because he's already damn close to Solo as Starlord. He's already got Guardians and Jurassic World, which will spawn sequels. Let someone else do it.
 
Well this casting has received the usual asinine remarks.

"Pfft. Who is she?"

"She's too skinny!"

"She's too skinny like Gadot was too skinny to play WW!"

"Her boobs arent big enough!"

"The studio screwed up by casting a nobody. Should have cast someone famous!"

Yes, because as we all know Lara Croft is a dead weight lifting, EEE breasted power house. :o
 
The boobs comments are bizarre. If you care about big boobs that much watch a porno. As for her weight, she will do the same thing all of these actors do, put on weight/work out for the role. It's not rocket science.
 
Can't be accurate without big boobs. :o

Thankfully, the games have evolved past that. The fans, not so much.
 
I guess they didn't get the message that this one's based on the rebooted games

Yeah, that stuff's fine. Now, hair colour on the other hand, that's immutable.

I liked the old Tomb Raider games but Croft's proportions were always silly. I mean I wasn't up in arms about it but they were silly. The new Croft is still hot but looks like a human now.

Yep, nothing any actor can do about hair color. :(

Didnt see it, at least not here.
"Pfft. Who is she?"
If they dont know who she is, I feel bad for them. Since last year she is really on the roll, both as supporting or lead. Starring in really good movies. From Ex-Machina to Danish Girl and now Bourne.

"She's too skinny!"

She is actually perfect. Rebooted Lara Croft is 5 ft 5¾ in (167cm) and Vikander is 5 ft 5½ (166 cm). Not sure rebooted or not but Lara's measurements (could be wrong) are 34D-24-35 / 86-61-89 and Vikander is 34-24-34½ in or 86-61-88 cm. Will she put muscles for a role? Yh. Gadot did it, she will also.

she is famous, just until now she didnt have her franchise and now she does.

I'll just say rebooted Lara doesnt depend on her look and practically never use it or lets say embrace it. She is much different than original Lara with who personally I grew up playing games. Original Lara was sex symbol with adventuristic and fearless spirit. New Lara is role model for young girls. Still has adventuristic spirit. But she isnt fearless and experienced like original Lara. And giving nature of her personality she never will be.

Yeah, it isn't creepy at all that you looked up the measurements of a video game character. Or that those are available.

Looked up? I believe you mean "had them memorized." :o
