British director Ben Wheatley is about to direct the sequel to Tomb Raider slated for the large display screen March 19, 2020.
The Tomb Raider sequel will see the return of Alicia Vikander within the position of Lara Croft, Deadline reviews.
Vikander first took the helm of the movie franchise final yr in Tomb Raider, which was directed by Roar Uthaug and grossed $275 million.
Ben Wheatley, who’s greatest recognized for his darkish cult movies, is an thrilling selection. He’s accountable for two of my favorite ever motion pictures – psychological horror Kill List and the surreal black-and-white historic movie A Field in England, concerning the results of untamed mushrooms on a band of troopers in the course of the English Civil War. I can’t even start to think about how he’ll interpret Tomb Raider.
The sequel shall be penned by Wheatley’s frequent collaborator Amy Jump, who wrote the scripts for High-Rise, a dystopian drama based mostly on the novel by J.G. Ballard, and Wheatley’s action-comedy Free Fire.
