Megan Fox is being eyed to take over from Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft, according to reports.

Insiders have claimed that the 22-year-old Transformers star is a "strong candidate” to play the action heroine, who has so far featured in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and The Cradle Of Life.

It had earlier been rumoured that Jolie was being lined up to resurrect the role for a third instalment in the franchise.

She was nominated for a Golden Raspberry gong for Worst Actress for her turn in the original film.

A third instalment in the Tomb Raider movie franchise has been confirmed, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Warner Brothers has reportedly bought the rights to the series, based on the popular video game about the daredevil archaeologist.

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and its sequel Lara Croft: Cradle Of Life were made by Paramount before the rights reverted back to the games' makers Eidos. Warner Brothers reportedly then landed the rights as part of Time Warner's deal to up its stake in Eidos.

Terminator Salvation's Dan Lin will produce the film, which is in early development, with Stephen Gilchrist co-producing and Eidos's Ian Livingstone executive producing.

No cast has been announced yet but insiders have tipped Transformers star Megan Fox to take on the role made famous by Angelina Jolie.

I didn't even now they were planning a third movie! I thought the second one was horrible. Megan Fox doesn't really have the look of Lara Croft, Angelina Joile was perfect I thought.
