Recently, we found out that the movie will follow Lara Croft’s search for her father:

“This is kind of what we call a ‘back to the roots story’. This is a young Lara Croft in search to see if her father is dead or alive, so it has a very emotional part to it.” Producer Graham King told Hey U Guys.

Roar Uthaug will direct the video-game adaptation and it opens in theaters on March 16, 2018.
