Information emerged last week that Amazon is preparing a new Tomb Raider series, which made us suspect that the company wanted to be Lara Croft's new home. That being said, it seems that his plans are much more ambitious and that he wants to transform Tomb Raider into something like what Marvel is today.

According to information from The Hollywood Reporter, Amazon is very committed to the Tomb Raider franchise. Apparently, the plan is to make it prosper with various products such as series, movies, and video games that are part of an interconnected universe.

It is worth mentioning that it is expected to be one of the largest investments Amazon has made in entertainment since the millionaire it put into making The Lord of the Rings series a reality. With this, it is clear that it will be a truly important project.

As part of this project, we have the new installment of Tomb Raider that will be developed by Crystal Dynamics but distributed by Amazon Games. We also have the series for Prime Video that Phoebe Waller-Bridge is working on.

A NEW TOMB RAIDER MOVIE IS ON THE WAY

The source also ensures those are not the only Tomb Raider projects in development. It turns out that Amazon teamed up with dj2 Entertainment to make a new Tomb Raider movie, which is expected to be a big-budget production.

If you don't know, dj2 Entertainment is a production house that has already worked on entertainment properties. In fact, they are responsible for Netflix's Tomb Raider anime, from Sonic: The Movie and its sequel, and future adaptations such as Life is Strange, Disco Elysium, Sleeping Dogs, Little Nightmares, and It Takes Two.

What did you think of the possibility of a huge Tomb Raider universe? Could it work or would it be a failure? Tell us in the comments.
