Netflix has announced a new Tomb Raider animated series, set after events from the recent reboot trilogy.<\/p>\n
The series is being developed by Legendary, which will follow Lara Croft after events in 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider from Eidos Montreal and Square Enix.<\/p>\n
There’s no word yet on when the series will release on Netflix, although considering its animation, at least it won’t (presumably) be subject to COVID-19 related delays.<\/p>\n

There’s also a live-action movie adaptation on the far horizon, in Tomb Raider 2 starring Alicia Vikander. That film was originally set to be directed by Ben Wheatley, but it was recently announced Lovecraft Country showrunner Misha Green will now take the reins.<\/p>\n
Netflix is doubling down significantly on video game adaptations, with a Resident Evil<\/a> and Splinter Cell animated<\/a> series in the pipeline too.<\/p>\n
