After more than five years in development, the Tomb Raider reboot has discovered a director.
Roar Uthaug, the director behind the Norwegian disaster drama The Wave, will direct MGM and Warner Bros.'s feature project which will center around the tomb-raiding adventures of archaeologist Lara Croft.
In addition,
Geneva Robertson-Dworet, a Black List honoree and co-writer on Transformers 5, is in talks with the studio to write the screenplay.
Plot details remain to be unsealed, but the film will detail Croft's
first adventure. Evan Daugherty, Marti Noxon and Mark Fergus and Hawk
Ostby previously worked on the script.
Croft is the star of a series of hit video games and one of the best known video game characters. She first appeared on screen portrayed by Angelina Jolie in 2001 in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, a blockbuster distributed by Paramount.
