Jolie 'furious' at Megan Fox playing Lara Croft photo

Megan Fox, Megan Fox, Megan Fox. It's seemingly all I hear about lately, as America has found yet another relatively hot female to latch onto and saturate the world with until everybody's bored of her. One person is reportedly already angry at the Megan Fox craze, and she has every right to be -- after all, she just stole her role as Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider movies.

According to The Sun (so who knows how truthful it is?), Angelina Jolie is "furious" at Megan Fox for being cast as Lara Croft in future Tomb Raider films, believing she'll be unable to do the character "justice." The Sun adds that, "She's also annoyed because she thinks Megan copies everything from her, from her tattoos to her style." 

Jolie was allegedly intent on reprising the role, and is angry at the idea of someone "less capable" than her taking on a role that she "defined." 

I can somewhat understand Jolie's catty bitching. After all, Jolie knows what it's like to be Hollywood's latest craze and whored out until everybody's sick of seeing her face everywhere, and it must be hard when the fickle gossip columns and easily-distracted mainstream audiences find a new human plaything. Jolie just needs to console herself with the fact that, once Megan gets a little older, it'll happen to her as well. I'm already tired as Hell of hearing her bloody name everywhere.

I think Fox is overrated in every way imaginable.
I'm glad I could get that out on a gaming site. Seriously, anything to do with that movie franchise should be banned from Dtoid.

I've never understood what was so great about Angelina Jolie. Megan Fox is 1,000 times hotter than her.

Is it wrong of me to think that neither one of them are attractive? Like in the slightest?

@HiddenAHB: Jolie would Kick megan's ass so bad...


I think she needs more tits if she wants to make that rol, I didn't like Angeline acting in her Tomb Raiders movies either (not for the tits, for the style, tits!), anyway Megan is not doin it.

Why Im reading this on Destructoid?, oh yeah Tomb raider and stuff...

You know, Angelina, other attractive women can also have tattoos too. You didn't exactly invent it, nor did you invent being an openly promiscuous, kinda-slutty celebrity. STFUAJustAdoptBabies.

CVG says "According to a Sun source..." The only sources The Sun has are the imaginations of its editors. Jolie is probably reading the article and wondering why she wasn't the first to know how pissed off she is.

Megan toe thumbs is ok there are thousands of way hotter chicks walking the streets of Hollywood who are way hotter than her,but as an actress she sucks ass.she's good in acting roles where she has as little lines as possible,with a movie like Tomb Raider she won't be able to pull it off.it should be fun to listen to her butcher an English accent.

Oh god Angelina Jolie doesn't think another attractive girl can play the part of an average action movie heroine? Give me a break. Neither of them were brought to the films because of their phenomenal acting skills.

You should post some kind of disclaimer or warning like "Here at Destructoid, we may find it necessary to post 'news' that's almost a year old." Megan Fox was RUMORED to be playing Lara Croft, but she turned the role down. Why? Because she heard that Jolie was upset and trying to be catty about it. Oh, and all of this...happened LAST FREAKING SUMMER!
