Tomb Raider 2 was moving slowly however it was surprising to discover that it was totally canceled on July 20, 2022.
According to reports, MGM was given until May 2022 to decide whether or not they would approve the sequel, to avoid losing rights. The sequel wasn’t officially approved and resulted in an auction between Hollywood studios to get licenses to this franchise.
We’re still waiting for confirmation which studios picked the rights however, if a sequel to the Tomb Raider movie happens is it the continuation of the series or will it be a reboot?
Here’s everything you should be aware of Tomb Raider 2.
Tomb Raider 2 potential release date : Tomb Raider 2 been cancelled?
We’ve always been concerned about the film’s sequel being delayed for a long time in October 2020 but after Misha Green became the director/writer in January 2021 we were hopeful that things would be getting back to normal.
However, when Alicia Vikander gave a disappointing update in the month of July 2022 It was just a few days later that the sequel was cancelled entirely due to MGM losing its license to this franchise.
In the words of the news site TheWrap, Vikander is not a part of the cast in the film, and the film may be an entire reboot in the event that it happens.
Keep an eye on this page and we’ll let you know when we learn further details about Lara’s next big-screen action.

At the moment at this moment, there’s absolutely no one on all accounts.
We were hoping Alicia Vikander would get another appearance in the role of Lara Croft, but that is no longer the situation.
This is also a sign that the next film (should it actually happen) will not feature Kristin Scott Thomas in the role of Ana Miller, Daniel Wu as Lu Ren, Dominic West as Lara’s father Lord Richard Croft or anybody else who was part of the film of 2018.
The story behind the scenes Misha Green would direct and write the sequel. On May 20, 2021 Green confirmed that she had completed the first draft of the sequel, with its name Tomb Raider: Obsidian.
The latest information however it appears Green has left to the show, however she could be included in the reboot.
