Tomb Raider prequel series revealed by Teen Wolf actor
To prepare fans for the 2015 launch of Rise of the Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics is plotting a live-action series focused on famed adventuress Lara Croft, according to actor Stephen Lunsford. In a message posted to Instagram alongside a photo of the actor at the Crystal Dynamics offices, Lunsford explains that he "will be creating a [Tomb Raider] mini-series to be released with Rise of The Tomb Raider" that will serve as a prequel to both the upcoming game and an "eventual" live-action feature. How this series might relate to 2013's Tomb Raider, which is set prior to the events of Rise of the Tomb Raider, is unknown as Lunsford offers no concrete information about the series' story, nor any hints at its title. Lacking from Lunsford's message is any mention of what his role on the series might be, whether he'll be working in front of the camera or behind it. Lunsford's IMDB page lists primarily acting credits - he's best known for appearing in 40 episodes of tokusatsu transplant Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight and for a stint on MTV's Teen Wolf reboot series - though he's also worked as a writer and director, most notably on a series of promotional YouTube shorts dubbed "Tomb Raider Facts" that was created in conjunction with Crystal Dynamics.
