Is Angelina Jolie too old to revisit one of the roles that made her famous? The producers of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider allegedly think so!
[We are rebooting Lara Croft," said producer Dan Lins. "It's
a great story that we're going to tell, very character-orientated and more
realistic than the past movies. It is an origin tale so it's going to be a
younger Lara Croft. It will have character-driven action. I think for me the
Lara Croft games and movies have gone a little too action-oriented. I wanted to
have action, but with character."]
In other words, they don't want a pin-thin mother of six. Guess who's in the running to play the younger version of Lara Croft? None other than Megan Fox! Megan has made no secret of her bid to take Jolie's action/sex symbol crown, though she pretends to bow at Angelina's feet. Says Fox, after knocking Jolie off the top spot for "World's Sexiest Woman": [She's a powerful human being, she could eat me alive.] I think Angie will play her usual public ice queen, while secretly fuming behind the scenes and threatening Brad with a smack to the face if he ever looks twice at Fox. This is a heavy contender bout with the rom-com duel between Katherine Heigl and Julia Roberts coming in at a close second. Ladies, take your corners!
