Tomb Raider 3 Shelved

Hellboy and “Tomb Raider” franchise producer Lawrence Gordon tells the Chicago Sun-Times that there won’t be a third Lara Croft film.

“I don’t think the financiers will do it,” he says. “I don’t think the last film did the business we expected. Of course, I’d love to do another one. Angelina Jolie is perfect as Lara Croft.”

Too bad for all those guys in our forums who wanted another Lara Croft movie…maybe next time.

Gordon and his partner Lloyd Levin are in talks to work on an adaptation of another comic book, “We’re going to do ‘The Watchmen’. It’s about a group of superheroes who reunite to figure out who is trying to kill them off.”

Levin adds that “it’s different characters, but it’s really a unique story because it deals with the spiritual aspect of being a superhero.”
