Actor Lisa Haydon is all set to adopt a brand new avatar on screen with her next film, Santa Banta Pvt Ltd. The actor, who will perform some high octane stunts in the film, has her character’s look inspired from popular Hollywood fiction, Lara Croft, which starred Angelina Jolie in the lead.The film’s director Akashdeep Sabir says looking at Lisa’s body structure, Lara Croft seemed to be the perfect inspiration. “We were shown references by our designers and there were various options on the table to choose from. Keeping Lisa in mind, we obviously felt that Lara Croft is the best reference,” Sabir says, adding: “Lisa visited my office while preparing for the role, and on a couple of occasions, we had the team around and did test shoots in various options. We eventually realised that our first gut feel was our final unanimous choice.” Although Lisa has done very different roles before this, the filmmaker believes that she has done a fabulous job in the film. “We feel she is perfect for the role and has done a very good job. In fact, the film’s action director Ravi Dewan said that we should plan more action films with her. Lisa is a sweetheart ... so unlike usual heroines, and such a free-spirited soul,” Sabir says.

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.”
