With the release of ‘Tomb Raider‘ reboot just around the corner, Warner Bros. has released a batch of new images from the film. Not only do the new images give us our first god look a the cast and many of the settings that were teased in the film’s two trailers, but well also get a bunch of new behind the scenes shots form the set.
The film stars Oscar winner Alicia Vikander in the lead role, under the direction of helmer Roar Uthaug, with Oscar-winner Graham King producing under his GK Films banner. Executive produced by Patrick McCormick, Denis O’Sullivan and Noah Hughes, ‘Tomb Raider‘ also stars Dominic West, Walton Goggins, Daniel Wu, and Kristin Scott Thomas. Uthaug directed from a script by Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Alastair Siddons.
‘Tomb Raider‘ is due in theaters on March 16, 2018. In the meantime, here’s the synopsis, along with all of the new images below:
Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished when she was scarcely a teen. Now a young woman of 21 without any real focus or purpose, Lara navigates the chaotic streets of trendy East London as a bike courier, barely making the rent, and takes college courses, rarely making it to class. Determined to forge her own path, she refuses to take the reins of her father’s global empire just as staunchly as she rejects the idea that he’s truly gone. Advised to face the facts and move forward after seven years without him, even Lara can’t understand what drives her to finally solve the puzzle of his mysterious death.
Going explicitly against his final wishes, she leaves everything she knows behind in search of her dad’s last-known destination: a fabled tomb on a mythical island that might be somewhere off the coast of Japan. But her mission will not be an easy one; just reaching the island will be extremely treacherous. Suddenly, the stakes couldn’t be higher for Lara, who—against the odds and armed with only her sharp mind, blind faith and inherently stubborn spirit—must learn to push herself beyond her limits as she journeys into the unknown. If she survives this perilous adventure, it could be the making of her, earning her the name tomb raider.
