Wheatley next has a remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rebecca” for Netflix. Quite frankly, this decision is so wonderfully out-of-left-field that it makes the sequel one of our most anticipated movies of the forseeable future. As of this writing, 'Tomb Raider 2' still does not have a new release date. (The first film opened on March 16, 2018, so they clearly stuck with what they know.) But more fascinating than the release date is the creative team MGM has chosen to shepherd the project – it will be directed by Ben Wheatley, the oddball British auteur behind “ Kill List,” “ High Rise” and “ Free Fire” (amongst many others), and written by his partner Amy Jump, who has written many of his projects. Tomb Raider 2 might have been delayed indefinitely from its March 2021 release, but the sequel is happening (despite our doubts over it) and it has an exciting new writer and director. The as-yet-untitled “Tomb Raider” sequel has a release date of March 19, 2021, via Deadline.
And now MGM has slated a release date and hired a creative team for the follow-up.

Last year’s “ Tomb Raider” reboot, starring Alicia Vikander as iconic videogame hero Lara Croft, was incredibly forgettable and only did so-so business ($275 million worldwide), but it was enough of a hit to warrant a sequel, apparently.
