Daisy Ridley Is Into the Idea of Playing Lara Croft in New 'Tomb Raider'
A couple weeks ago, we heard that Star Wars: The Force Awakens breakout Daisy Ridley was being eyed to star in a Tomb Raider reboot. The 23-year-old Brit would play Lara Croft, the role originated by a pixelated badass in the 1996 video game and played by Angelina Jolie in a pair of movies in 2001 and '03.
Now Ridley's spoken out, and the forecast seems good. "I’m waiting for someone to say ‘I want you, let’s do it,'" she told The Hollywood Reporter, confirming that there "have been conversations" but that there's no script yet. The video game series was rebooted in 2013, with its most recent game, Rise of the Tomb Raider, released in November 2015.
