Pain Actress May Get Downgraded Or Booted

[Blind Gossip] While this action movie was filming, we told you all about the problems they were having with the female lead. For many reasons, she was simply a pain to deal with.

The movie was released. The response to it was tepid. So… what will they do with the sequel they were planning?

Sequel is moving forward. However, after terrible box office in the US it is being developed as a streaming film with a low budget. [Actor] may return for international appeal but [Actress] may be replaced.

We don’t know if the lead actress will be replaced, but that is quite a downgrade from the big screen to a streaming service. Our actress – who considers herself a big movie star – is NOT going to be happy with either the downgrade or the boot.

Nothing to do with Harrison Ford, who is the consummate action star!

  1. Obviously tomb raider and Alicia viklander or Vikander or whatever.
    I guess being Harvey’s favoured actress leads to an outcome she didn’t think was on the cards…

    • And as for who I’d like to see in the role, here’s an idea: how about a new strong and fascinating female character?? Surely there is more than one they can think of?

  10. Tomb Raider
    Dominic West
    Alicia Vikander

    She is a mess. I never understood her appeal. She is not a good actress.

    Depends on how young they want to go. Naomi Scott would be a good, young Lara. Hailey Atwell, Gemma Arterton, or Natalie Dormer would all be good for a more seasoned Lara.

  12. Movie: Tomb Raider
    Actor: Daniel Wu
    Actress: Alicia Vikander
    It seems like this is what the blond is about, but I hope it’s not. I didn’t hate the movie even though her energy was odd for Lara Croft, and I do like her. (Swede solidarity)
    I’d like to see a relatively unknown actress play the role

  14. “Tomb Raider.” Alicia Vikander, and Daniel Wu as the actor with international appeal (the film did well in China).

  16. Movie: Tomb Raider
    Actor: Dominic West?
    Actress: Alicia Vikander

    I would like to see Felicity Jones in the role.

  18. Movie: Tomb Raider
    Actress: Alicia Vikander
    Actor: Dominic Cooper

    Replace her. Now that Daddy Weinstein is a dead duck her career will stall.

  20. Toom rider or whatever it was called with that vikander or whats her name the one that is completely dull on screen but somehow managed to get a Oscar .

  22. The first thing that came to mind was Alicia Vikander in Tomb Raider. I have no idea who the actor would be, though.

  23. Solo: A Star Wars Story
    Actor: Alden Ehrenreich
    Actress: Emilia Clarke

    Replace them both with Greyston Holt and Olivia Cooke

  28. Tomb Raider and the actress who was drunk every day… Kick her to the curb and oh good grief- who wants to see this show in any way, shape or form?

  30. Tomb Raider
    Dominic West
    Alicia Vikander

    I wasn’t interested in seeing it and I was really excited for the ones staring Angelina Jolie.

  32. Sounds like Tomb Raider and
    Alicia Vikander
    Actor maybe Dominic West or Daniel Wu
    Scrap it altogether or get a new actress

    • Sorry, my dog pushed my hand, which caused me to post before ready.

      This sure sounds like it’s about JLaw. X-Men: The Apocalypse didn’t do too well in the US but its next film is already in post-production.
      Maybe Dead Sparrow was supposed to be the first in a series?

      Optional: Dump her and replace her with her biggest rival, and pay the rival more.

  38. Movie: Tomb raider

    Actor:?

    Actress: Alicia Vikander

    Clue: indiana Jones and Lara Croft are both supposed to be archaeologists

    Replace her if she is not doing a good enough job.

  40. Movie: Tomb Radier
    Actress: Alicia Vikander
    Actor: Daniel Wu?

    They should have casted Daisy Ridley the first time around. Good look and she’s fit as hell, perfect for the role.

  57. Tomb Raider
    Daniel Wu
    Alicia Vikander

    It’s up to them. How much money do they feel like losing?

  58. Alicia, Tomb Raider I think the franchise could be a web series or a series on a streaming service. Video game adaptations are risky & the studio shouldn’t have spent a lot of money on it. I saw her videos training, but rumor has it she has an ego & wasn’t up to the physical task, so yea, if true, replace her for sure.

    • Oppps I forgot to write it as Emilia Clarke is the actress who was giving everyone grief

  66. Movie: Red Sparrow
    Actor: Joel Edgerton
    Actress: Jennifer Lawrence

    No way she will do it at this point in her career.

  68. Red Sparrow
    Joel edgerton
    Jennifer lawrence

    Tbh I don’t see why she took her clothes off

  71. Tomb raider remake
    Daniel Wu
    Alicia Vikander

    Optional: I couldn’t care less, never read the comic, never paid to see the first version, not interested in watching the remake or any further sequels.

  73. It’s Alicia Vikander, Tomb Raider.
    I actually thought she was very good. An improvement on po faced Jolie.

  77. Tomb Raider

    Actor: Daniel Wu

    Actress: Alicia Vikander

    Made 57 million domestic
    216m foreign

  80. Tomb Raider

    Alicia Vikander

    Daniel Wu

    Replacing would likely be a good idea, she just doesn’t really have the charisma to lead an action film in my opinion. Not sure who else.
