Netflix is working on the "Tomb Raider" series

Lara Croft
from the
"Tomb Raider" video games
.
The actresses
Angelina Jolie
and
Alicia Vikander
have already embodied her in the films of the same name.
It will stay with these two actresses for the time being, because Netflix * is planning an
anime series
for the popular game.
As
reported by
Deadline
magazine, among others
, the story should begin after the end of the game
"Shadow of the Tomb Raider"
.
So the planned series is a sequel of the games.
When it will appear is not yet known.
Netflix
also doesn't offer a trailer or footage yet.

So it is time
for showrunner
Michael Hirst
to devote himself to new projects.
One of them is said to be a mini-series based on the famous novel "The Great Gatsby" (promotional link) by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
As
The Hollywood Reporter
reports, Hirst would like to pay particular attention to the Black community of the 1920s and also to focus on the musical subcultures of that time.
It is possible that the audience can expect a
very unusual adaptation of the book
.
It is currently unclear on which station or streaming service the series will appear.
Hirst would like to negotiate with several possible partners in the near future.
