With Waller-Bridge taking the helm of Amazon’s Tomb Raider series and McDonald involved in the writing process, skepticism surrounds the future of this adaptation.

At this point, many believe that the project could be another casualty in the ongoing trend of Hollywood’s questionable decision-making.
