Now Playing: Tomb Raider Movie – First Official Trailer

The Tomb Raider sequel will once more star Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft. The 2018 movie was based on the current video game series and made $275 million at the worldwide box office. In his review, GameSpot’s Michael Rougeau called it “a pretty good action movie and a better than average video game adaptation,” citing “smart story choices and a winning performance from Alicia Vikander.”

Green wrote or co-wrote every episode of Lovecraft Country as well directing Episode 8 of the series. The show was based on Matt Ruff’s 2016 novel of the same title and aired on HBO between August and October last year.
