Tomb Raider sells
Eidos, the British gamemaker behind the "Tomb Raider" franchise, has agreed to be purchased by Japanese vidgame company Square Enix for $120 million.
Small sum will significantly hurt Warner Bros., which owned 20% of Eidos, and is now expected to lose $93 million should the deal be approved by investors. It had invested $30 million in Eidos last year on top of the initial $87 million it put into the company in 2006.
Square Enix is buying out WB's stake for $24 million.

Green Lantern movie may have director
Green Lantern movie may have director

Variety.Com
Read the story below:
Warner Bros. is negotiating with Martin Campbell to direct "Green Lantern," the live-action film based on the DC Comics hero.
Campbell last directed "Casino Royale" and recently wrapped the Mel Gibson starrer "Edge of Darkness," based on the 1985 BBC miniseries that Campbell helmed.
The emergence of Campbell, who also helmed two "Zorro" films and the 007 film "GoldenEye," puts "Green Lantern" at the top of DC properties being set for movie treatment by WB. While the studio is hoping director Chris Nolan will follow its 2008 smash "The Dark Knight" with another Batfilm, DC projects such as Superman and "Justice League" were expected to happen quickly, but have stalled.
Instead, the hot DC titles are "Green Lantern" and "Jonah Hex," the latter of which has Josh Brolin set to play a disfigured gunslinger in a film that begins production in April, directed by Jimmy Heyward ("Horton Hears a Who").
Greg Berlanti wrote the script with Marc Guggenheim and Michael Green.
Donald DeLine will produce with Berlanti.
