Storyboards from the canceled sequel to the Tomb Raider movie have surfaced online and seem to suggest that there would’ve been a big set piece revolving around Lara Croft’s signature home, Croft Manor. The Tomb Raider series is one of the most iconic and action-heavy franchises in gaming, which made it an easy pick for Hollywood to adapt. The series got its first set of films in the early 2000s with Angelina Jolie, both of which were critical duds, but made off with a healthy chunk of change at the box office. Years later, on the back of the rebooted and more mature trilogy that Crystal Dynamics was making in the 2010s, Hollywood gave it another go with a much better film starring Alicia Vikander. While a sequel was in development for a while, director changes and COVID got in the way of it happening. The film was officially canceled earlier this summer and now studios are in a bidding war for the rights to the series.
