Crystal Dynamics 2013' reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise with a younger, scrappier Lara Croft was met with universal praise from critics and fans alike. The fact that the reboot film from Warner Bros. and MGM will follow the plot from the action-adventure game should be seen as a sign that the film is headed in the right direction. Said Uthaug---
"I think making Lara Croft feel like a real human being, that's definitely something we want to bring to the big screen as well. I think we'll want to make people relate to Lara as a character. I'm hoping to bring some of my Norwegian sensibilities to the franchise."
The Tomb Raider reboot is currently without a release date but Geneva Robertson-Dworet was recently hired to write the script. With upcoming video game films such as Warcraft (directed by Duncan Jones) and Assassin's Creed (starring Michael Fassbender), do you agree that the future of video game films looks rather bright at the moment?
