Some wacky licensing news for you guys today. Firstly because Tomb Raider the movie was such a hit (wha?) Angelina Jolie has signed on to make a sequel. Tomb Raider 2! (Thanks.. er.. damn it I lost your name, thanks though!) In addition, I just noticed that Activision has just secured the worldwide rights to Marvel's Fantastic Four, Iron Man, and Blade.

``Activision is thrilled to extend our relationship with Marvel by adding these phenomenally rich characters to our slate of established brands,'' said Greg Goldstein, vice president of brand development and licensing for Activision, Inc. ``Both of these properties have entertained fans around the world in the form of comic books and other media for more than 35 years. We intend to take full advantage of current videogame hardware technology to bring these iconic super heroes to life as never before.''

Hum...
