Star Wars’ Star Daisy Ridley Talks Episode VIII at 2016 Oscars | MTV News

After being propelled to international stardom as Rey in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Daisy Ridley could be looking to headline another movie franchise.

Deadline contends the 23-year-old is among a number of young actresses being considered for the role of Lara Croft in the long-developing Tomb Raider reboot from Warner Bros. and MGM.

The website cautions that while conversations have taken place, its very early in the casting process, and no offers have been made.

Roar Uthaug (The Wave) is on board to direct the film, which has been in the works since 2011 (it was originally targeted for release in 2013, to coincide with Square Enixs video game reboot Tomb Raider).

Archaeologist-adventurer Lara Craft was famously portrayed by Angelina Jolie in two movie adaptations, 2001s Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and 2003s Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, which grossed a combined $432 million worldwide.
