With news studios are moving forward with a new Tomb Raider movie, rumors are swirling as to who would be cast as the extremely sexy Lara Croft. Most sources say Megan Fox. This is a good idea, considering the woman is extremely beautiful (FHM's most beautiful woman on the planet. Google her and I dare you to disagree), she has already starred in several action movies, with Transformers 2 nearing completion, and she definitely has a draw that will make money. The bad news is, she is saying she doesn't want it because she doesn't wanna be the girl who is the "next Angelina Jolie;" like that is such a bad thing.
Like her or not, her performances on-screen have always been consistent. She was never bad, and sometimes quite good; she is a pure sex symbol, a peace ambassador, and is working to provide relief for hunger in Africa. Let's face it, of all the people to be compared to, for a woman, it doesn't get much better than Jolie. Maybe that is the problem, maybe it's just too big of shoes to fill, and getting type-cast as a younger Jolie could be a problem. I guess I will just have to stick to getting my dose of Fox from Transformers...could be worse.
What do you think, is being a younger Angelina Jolie a bad thing, or is it a mistake to turn down such a lucrative franchise?

I agree with her because it is the third of the movie franchise...that is risky. Also, her publicist is going nuts now that she has said that. She might have just doomed herself.

I agree it's risky, but if they rehash a series completely, the idea would be to forget about Jolie. It worked for....everyone else after Michael Keaton.
