The series with Alicia got cancelled after the production of the sequel kept getting delayed. It is strange to think that the second movie would have been out if it wasn't for covid. It was literally weeks away from production starting.

mystery Posted July 2, 2023 Author Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) VANITY FAIR: Phoebe Waller-Bridge on Her “Surreal” Journey From Fleabag to Indiana Jones My time with Waller-Bridge takes place in April, before the writers strike, while she develops the classic video game Tomb Raider for a live-action Amazon series. (By May, she will be striking in solidarity with the Writers Guild of America.) Tomb Raider, like Indiana Jones, may seem an unexpected move, but Waller-Bridge was a Tomb Raider addict as a teen. “My parents were very smart because they didn’t actually limit me. They could sense that I was going to just game myself into the ground, and I did,” she says. “I packed the PlayStation away, and I was like, ‘I’ve got to not do that because I’ve got to write and read and do other stuff.’ But Waller-Bridge’s love for Lara Croft stayed with her. “She had an attitude. She was very deliberate in what she wanted to do.” She remembers Croft’s balletic movements through tombs and the game’s moody serenity. “That all changed when they realized that they could market her to be a sex symbol,” she says with a twitch of annoyance. During the pandemic, Waller-Bridge comforted herself by plunging back into the game, so it seemed like kismet when Amazon asked her if she’d be interested in developing a series. “God, it literally felt like that teenager in me saying: Do right by her, do right by Lara!” she says. “The opportunity to have, as we were talking earlier, a female action character…. Having worked on Bond and having worked as an actor on Indy, I feel like I’ve been building up to this. What if I could take the reins on an action franchise, with everything I’ve learned, with a character I adore, and also just bring back some of that ’90s vibe?” The project aroused “big roaring instincts” in her. “And it’s such a wonderful feeling to think you know what to do.” The world embraced Waller-Bridge on the basis of her own totally idiosyncratic vision. I ask if she hesitates to participate in our endlessly recycling culture of reboots and remakes. “I feel like when you’re working in the industry, you’ve got to ride the waves and lean in,” she tells me. “There’s room to do something really quite dangerous. And if I can do something dangerous and exciting with Tomb Raider, I already have an audience of people who love Lara and hopefully will continue to. And that is a very unusual position to be in. It’s the old Trojan horse.” “The boob conversation, we’re in it! We’re having it,” she announces gleefully as customers at a nearby table make their exit. Breast references pop up in a lot of her writing, and Waller-Bridge says it became a heated topic in the Tomb Raider writers room. Should Lara Croft have an athletic build or the canonically busty figure? “She’s a tomb raider, so she’s incredibly fit,” she says. “She has to squeeze through tiny rock crevices all the time. It is a different experience squeezing through a small rock crevice when you have larger boobs than if you have smaller boobs.” Edited July 2, 2023 by mystery

poki Posted July 25, 2023 Posted July 25, 2023 Tomb Raider has been such a mess for the last 10 years The fan base is insanely divided over everything. - Hardcore fans want 90's Lara - The gays + ThatNorskChick want AoD Lara (GIVE IT TO ME NOW) - The GP wants 2013 reboot Lara Just a mess

Reboot Trilogy and Camilla are the worst thing to have happened to the franchise. 2013 kinda gets a pass because it was supposed to show her becoming the TOMB RAIDER...well with the games that followed that....never happened. I'm not here for a unified Lara, just give us Core Design Lara! just look at this thing....it's so ******* ugly. 2

Camilla is awful. I always cackle at how CD managed to destroy one of gaming's most iconic heroines and obliterated all their momentum and goodwill post-2013 with Shadow. Like it should not be that difficult to make a good TR game. Literally just bring back isolation, item-based puzzles, traps, good tunes, dialled back story, and drop the Hollywood nonsense. But watch them make Lara a boo-hoo crybaby and obsess over her father...AGAIN. 1

How they thought that voice of hers would fit THEEE Lara Croft I will never know I completely agree, it hurts to see how the franchise deteriorated so much. Did you see that supposed "leak" for the story of the next game? I pray to anything and everything that it isn't true, because it will be the final nail in the coffin. Also, saw this today I honestly threw up, I never saw this **** when I played the bullshit game because I skipped the awful conversation cutscenes.

I mean with some of their creative decisions it would not shock me. And knowing CD the backlash will probably just make them double down. They know best after all. 21 minutes ago, noonbob said: Also, saw this today This game had a 100m development budget
