MGM Acquires ‘Tomb Raider’ Film Rights

A film reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise has been in development for years. Today MGM’s Gary Barber and producer Graham King announced that the studio has gained the film rights to the successful video game franchise and will develop a film with GK Films.

After two successful films starring Angelina Jolie, a reboot and new take on the series has been in development for quite some time but never moved forward until now. The franchise saw a very successful reboot of the video game series earlier this month, so it really shouldn’t be a shock that they are now pursuing bringing Lara Croft back to the big screen again.
