"Tomb Raider producer Graham King has revealed that he took inspiration from Rise of the Planet of the Apes for the Lara Croft franchise reboot.  King told Digital Spy that he has received a script from Iron Man screenwriters Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re going through [the script] creatively, bringing in directors to talk to and then I get that horrible job of sitting with 25-30 young girls that want to play Lara Croft,&amp;quot; he said. Asked about his approach to the new Lara Croft movie, King said: &amp;quot;For me it&amp;#039;s re-inventing the wheel a bit, it&amp;#039;s a reboot. We&amp;#039;re going back before she was Lara Croft, so it&amp;#039;s a much more emotional character piece. She&amp;#039;s in search of her parents. &amp;quot;One of my favourite movies of this year was Rise of the Planet of the Apes and the way they rebooted that franchise. I thought it was fantastic and took a lot away from that for Tomb Raider.&amp;quot; Angelina Jolie previously starred as the iconic video game character in Tomb Raider (2001) and Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003).
