Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Daisy Ridley is reportedly in the running to take on the role of Lara Croft, based on the popular video game series, taking over from Angelina Jolie.Daisy, 23, was picked out of virtual obscurity to star as Rey in the Star Wars and now she is being eyed for the action role made famous by Angelina Jolie in the early 2000s, reported Deadline.Movie executives at Warner Bros and MGM are relaunching the franchise, based on the popular video game series, and are reportedly looking at a number of actresses.“The latest adaptation, which has been in development for several years, received a jolt of adrenaline when the video game series was rebooted by game developer Square Enix with 2013’s Tomb Raider, which depicted Croft’s first adventure as an archaeology student, and follow-up Rise Of The Tomb Raider. That younger take on the character’s origin and path to derring-do are believed to have given the film’s producers some creative guidance,” reports Deadline.The reboot has reportedly been in the works for several years, although it is unclear when the movie is slated to begin filming as the production is in its very early stages.It is tentatively slated for a 2017 release with Norwegian director Roar Uthaug at the helm.

Could this be the end of the marriage for celebrity juggernauts Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie? If the cover of In Touch Weekly is to be believed, the “Fury” actor is going to divorce his wife for being insanely envious of his new co-star, Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard.Pitt, 52, and the French actress, 40, are currently working on a World War II romantic thriller, “and the resentment has been eating away at Angelina,” an insider told In Touch Wednesday, according to Hollywood Life. “She’s prone to think that since she was once Brad’s co-star and seduced him away from his wife, the same will happen to her.” Pitt famously left then-wife Jennifer Aniston after he starred with Jolie in “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” in 2005. Both parties denied the affair started when he was still married to the beloved “Friends” star.Though Pitt has worked with other gorgeous women during his time in the entertainment industry, Jolie, 40, is especially intimidated by Cotillard. “She’s exactly the kind of sultry European actress that Angie has always wanted to be and she’s playing exactly the kind of role Angie’s always wanted to play,” an insider told the magazine. “Adding to the jealousy is the fact that Marion has one thing Angelina hasn’t achieved in her acting career: Oscar for Best Actress.”Jolie won an Oscar in 2000 for Best Supporting Actress for her work in “Girl, Interrupted.” Cotillard won for “La Vie en Rose” in 2008.Though there have been plenty of reports about Jolie filing for divorce from Pitt, In Touch Weekly’s version claims it will be Pitt who ends the marriage. “He’s fed up with her controlling ways, her obstinateness when it comes to listening to him about her health issues and how she needs to slow down and now her outright jealousy when it comes to other women,” the insider said.Neither Pitt nor Jolie have commented on the divorce rumors, but Gossip Cop, a website that famously dismantles celebrity reports, said there is “no truth” to the story. “Pitt and Jolie have been together for more than a decade, during which time they’ve both worked alongside many attractive co-stars,” Gossip Cop wrote. “The couple’s marriage is going strong and this is simply a non-issue.”

Angelina Jolie is just as well known for her humanitarian work as her blockbuster movies.But as the star jetted out of LAX on Monday, it was her nine-year-old daughter Shiloh who wore her politics on her sleeve, as she sported an 'Einstein was a refugee' sweater. Angelina, 40, dressed in all black as she led Shiloh, her 11-year-old daughter Zahara and son Pax, 12, into the Los Angeles airport.The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, for which Angelina is a Special Envoy, highlights Einstein on a list of prominent refugees who have made a difference, pointing to his move to the US from Europe after the rise of the Nazi party and anti-Semitism.Back in September, Shiloh's mother Angelina waded into the European migrant crisis, and criticised a failure to resolve global conflicts.She called for a distinction to be made between those fleeing war and those escaping extreme poverty, saying those at most risk need to be saved from persecution and danger. The star also suggested that effective screening of migrants could be more efficient and give those in danger need the protection they needed.On Thursday Angelina left the political statements to her daughter, keeping her outfit simple in a pair of black trousers, riding boots, sunglasses and an oversized shawl - which she wrapped effortlessly around her body.The mother of six tucked her dark hued bottoms into her knee high boots, which perfectly complimented her loose fitting cover up.The shawl provided just a peek of her strappy tank top beneath and her watch adorning her left wrist.
The Academy Award winning actress, who wore her diamond wedding ring as well as delicate earrings, carried a structured black tote while holding Zahara's hand.Angelina wore light pink lipstick and a touch of blush beneath her defined brows, opting to shield her eyes with black aviator sunglasses.The movie star pulled her long, dark brunette locks back into a low, sleek ponytail for a casual travel look.Pax wore an olive hued T-shirt with a grey zippered hoodie and cream trousers, rounding out his ensemble with green sunglasses.Zahara sported a light blue top with a black jacket, leggings and sneakers.The filmmaker recently wrapped her upcoming Netflix movie, titled First They Killed My Father, in Cambodia.On Wednesday, Angelina was spotted arriving at LAX airport with Pax, Shiloh and Zahara after a brief trip to London to visit her husband Brad Pitt. Brad, 52, is currently in England filming the sequel for World War Z.The couple, who have been in a relationship since 2005, are also parents to 14-year-old Maddox and seven-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.Angelina and Brad married on August 23, 2014 in an intimate ceremony with their children in Correns, France.

Margot Robbie has been dubbed ‘the new Angelina Jolie’

MARGOT Robbie won millions of fans when she stripped off in The Wolf Of Wall Street — but among Hollywood’s jealous wives she is piling up enemies.The Sun reports that the Aussie’s sizzling chemistry with her leading men is so scorchingly obvious that at times it has sparked paranoia and distrust among even the movie world’s most solid couples.In some fearful circles she has even been dubbed “the new Angelina Jolie” — the biggest threat to A-list marriages since Angie bagged the then-married Brad Pitt 12 years ago.The most explosive rumour to date involves Robbieand Will Smith, whose scenes together as lovers in last year’s comedy thriller Focus radiated such red-hot energy they were close to being a fire risk.An insider said: “Jada was furious. She saw them on the red carpet together — they were all over each other.“She has known Will for more than 20 years so it is pretty obvious when he has the hots for someone. And she doesn’t trust Margot one bit.” By that stage Pinkett Smith had already had to endure scrutiny of her marriage when photos emerged of dad-of-three Smith getting cosy with Robbie in a photo book during the filming of Focus in late 2013.The actor quickly took to Twitter to say it was just a bit of messing around, fuming: “It’s disappointing that goofing around on set could be taken so out of context.”
But after their tactile red-carpet display, rumours raced around that Hollywood golden couple Will and Jada were on the verge of divorce.The stars have denied the claims, with Pinkett Smith saying four months after the premiere: “You’ve got to trust who you’re with, and at the end of the day I’m not here to be anybody’s watcher. I’m not his watcher — he’s a grown man.” She must have some faith — because Smith was back filming with Robbie again last year on upcoming superhero blockbuster Suicide Squad.In fact he is not even the only A-lister in Suicide Squad to be reportedly smitten.Ben Affleck plays Batman in the flick and when he and wife Jennifer Garner revealed they were to divorce last June — one day after their tenth wedding anniversary — it was said that Ben, 43, had been growing close to Queensland-born Margot during filming in Canada.A source said at the time: “Ben has had the hots for Margot since he saw her in Wolf Of Wall Street. As far as he is concerned, Margot is the sexiest woman in Hollywood right now.” The beauty was also linked to True Blood star Alexander Skarsgard, 39, who is fashion guru Alexa Chung’s current boyfriend and Robbie’s co-star in another upcoming film, The Legend Of Tarzan.Last January, while attending the Sundance Film Festival in Utah together, Robbie and Skarsgard were spotted partying in a pop-up club.Despite all the romance rumours, Robbie has maintained a steady relationship with her British boyfriend Tom Ackerley, who has been an assistant director on films including Grimsby.She has also publicly said she would never get involved with a fellow actor.“I made a conscious decision not to date actors,” Robbie said.The pair met when they both worked on 2014 flick Suite Francaise.At one point it was even thought that they had secretly married, when they were spotted wearing identical gold bands on their wedding fingers last June. But Robbie has admitted that her hectic work schedule makes maintaining a romance difficult.She revealed that all the travel takes its toll, saying: “I don’t know how anyone makes a relationship [like this] work, to be honest.”But her mum Sarie Kessler has no doubt the pair are the real deal.She said of her daughter: “She loves Tom, he’s the one. He’s the man in her life — he’s a gorgeous and delightful person.”
