Daisy Ridley Confirms Talks for Lara Croft Role in 'Tomb Raider'
Daisy Ridley has previously been rumoured to be in the running for the headline role in the upcoming Tomb Raider reboot, and now the young actress has confirmed early talks for the part.
At the Empire awards last night, Ridley said "I'm waiting for someone to say 'I want you, let's do it.' Clearly she has an interested in the project. She went on to confirm that production work on Star Wars: Episode VIII would not conflict with the possible casting, and that she is hoping to fill up her schedule with more jobs.
Not unlike jennifer Lawrence rise to fame, taking on two franchises at once could lead to very big things for Ridley, who has already guaranteed, barring some catastrophic decline, that she will be able to find work in the industry at least in the foreseeable future.
