Rumor Patrol: Megan Fox as Lara Croft

Published on Friday January 23, 2009 11:00 PM CST

Some rumors become rumors because they're so far out of the mainstream that people have to talk about them. Other rumors become rumors because they make too much sense to ignore. Like all the Batman casting noise that has zero basis in reality, I don't think there's anything concrete to this one, although it makes too much sense to ignore.

Since she's already being branded as a kind of Angelina version 2.0, it wasn't going to take too many years for Megan Fox to be linked to Tomb Raider. Jolie will never play Lara Croft again. That's a young woman's game there. But Fox is arguably a star on the rise. I say arguably because she has yet to prove she can open anything; Transformers is hardly her success and How to Lose Friends and Alienate People was a commercial disaster.
