There's been tons of Lara Crofts over the years, the most famous probably being Angelina Jolie. Sure there's still a barrage of Lara's patrolling every video game trade show known to man but who's going to fill Jolie's outfit and take on the role of Lara on the big screen?
Word on the street is Kim Kardashian is in discussions to replace Jolie as Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider movie franchise. According to Showbizspy Kardashian is in discussions to become the new Lara and the reality TV star, who's already appeared in CSI: NY, is said to be taking acting lessons.
Showbizspy cites Hollywood sources that say Kim gets a lot of scripts but doesn't want to be seen as making the same mistake as a lot of other 'famous people' who can't act but appear in movies anyway.

Kardashian does look a fair bit like Lara Croft, which has also fueled the rumor. She also does have acting experience (sort of), because she played a part in “Disaster Movie,” which was not well received but does give her a little bit of experience in acting. If the part is offered to her, the bet is that she would take the part.
Who do you think would make the best Lara Croft?
