From Eidos's forums:

"Tomb Raider Chronicles all week has been canvassing public opinion on who should replace bee-stung lipped beauty Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft should Paramount Pictures commission a concluding Tomb Raider motion picture, as is being suggested by some factions of the movie-making industry at present. More than 3,000 avid readers cast their vote, and the results have proved somewhat conclusive.

Consuming 46% of the public vote, 19-year-old Keira Knightley - daughter of actor Will Knightley and playwright Sharman Macdonald - appears to be the favourite to don pistols and hot-pants to reprise the role of ardent Tomb Raider Lara Croft, with 31-year-old English rose Kate Beckinsale bringing up the rear with a combined vote of 28%. Other more bizarre suggestions included drag supremo Ru Paul, who curiously racked up 2% of the vote and former Lara Croft model Rhona Mitra, garnering 7% of public opinion.

A source attached to motion picture giant Paramount recently confirmed the studio is still negotiating a third Lara Croft-helmed movie to conclude the trilogy originally touted by director Simon West. Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie - who played lead video-game heroine Lara Croft - had already dismissed a concluding picture during an interview in March but reiterated her decision again while in Venice to promote DreamWorks' Shark Tale. "I just don't feel like I need to do another one, because I felt very happy with the last one."

Our readers have spoken. Is Paramount listening...? Only time will tell. "

Keira Knightley

What do YOU guys think?
Rhona Mitra kinda looks a little like Angielina actually. At least in this picture.

Since when does being thin mean you have to have anorexia?? :confused:
Some people simply are thin, and it doesn't mean they are sick.
I know a whole lot about anorexia....unfortunately I must add, since my sister has been suffering from this horrible disease for about 6 years.
I've never heard anything about Keira having that problem.
I'm sick of people always having to complain about other peoples bodies, whether they are too fat or too thin. I know it was comments like that who drove my sister to where she is now.

Im sorry your sister is sick. I too, suffered close to heart from a very sick girl who thought she looked ugly when she was beautiful. Its a terrible experience.

Kiera can look like whomever she wants to. She looks like a drug addict in this photo.

Im not complaining about her body, just stating an opinion. Fat or thin, I dont care. But releasing photos such as these to be viewed to the public is wrong. Kiera is being ogled and adored in this photo when she is sickeningly thin: this merely drives the already sick girls to be thinner.

Just making a statement about the world. Im not trying to hurt anyones feelings. Im a teenage girl, I know what its like out there. http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/wave.gif

I'm sure everyone of the female gender knows what the world is like today.
Just for the record.....we're never gonna agree when it comes to Keira Knightley! ;)
But that's ok....the world would be such a boring place if we all agreed with eachother on everything...

Rhona would make a great Lara but please that pic is horrible!!! But Keira is not a good choice she only has Lara's face and sort of has the voice but her body is too skinny for Lara and her chest is so flat padding up is not going to help. I want a real life Lara just like Angie Jolie not an actress playing Lara.

keira isent the right person for the role ...
I think the model for the Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness could be a good choice ... but no one can beat Angelina jolie in that role ... Lara was made for her ...
