Tomb Raider 2 new director, still a possibility but not green lit

Heard this news about Tomb Raider 2. Alicia said in an interview that she's been speaking to the director on Zoom calls and discussing big stunts and set pieces.

Why this weird title ? The director is still Mrs Green and we already have this news some weeks ago that they're still waiting a green light. But it's still they discussed stunts and set pieces.

Because I didn't know Mrs Green had come on board? So it's news to me, and I scanned the most recent threads to see if anyone else had made a similar announcement so I came to the conclusion it was news ×shrug×

Happy to see that Alicia herself is excited to be back as Lara for a sequel! Hope the production speeds up a bit though

There is a discussion going on over those Alicia quotes in the General TR movie thread and we've known for a while now that Misha Green is the new director, it was announced in January, iirc. But this is the problem with everything being put into one thread, news can easily be missed.

But I can't see the article you've linked to it comes up as about:blank#blocked for me.

Why are you guys calling her Mrs? That's a bit formal

. Or a typo?

Darn, this clickbaity thread title had me all excited thinking Misha-blergh-Green was off the project.

But alas no.

Oh my bad then, I thought you already know it since she was announced as soon as January.

I agree it's really easy to lost track in the main thread though, as Rai also said.
BTW, I wrote Mrs because for the moment I forgot Misha's name except for the "M" so that was my quick solution.

We know so little about the film and I didn't notice anything negative about her past work so it's surprising to see an opinion that harsh.

1) I've been a fan of Lovecraft's horror fiction for years, but I thought her show 'Lovecraft Country' was truly awful, and it's not surprising to me that it was cancelled.

2) I think she comes across as snooty and condescending in the interviews I've seen her give.

3) Legend Lara is not 'classic era':

But of course, these points are just my opinion. Other people seem to love her. But since you asked Chamayoo, I wanted to answer you thoroughly.
