Hollywood superstar Angelina Jolie is reportedly furious after learning that Megan Fox might replace her in the next Tomb Raider film.

The Transformers actress who was recently voted the 'World's Sexiest Woman' has often been compared to 34-year-old Jolie for her similar looks.

And now the Oscar winning actress is concerned that Fox, 23, may take over the role from her in the prequel of the action thriller which traces the younger years of the protagonist Lara Croft, Sun online reported.

"Angie was intent on reprising her role. She feels it's something she helped define and feels robbed that it looks likely to be handed to someone who she considers less capable than her," a source close to the actress told the newspaper.

"Angie isn't a fan of the Transformers films and believes Megan won't do the Lara Croft character justice. She's also annoyed because she thinks Megan copies everything from her, from her tattoos to her style," the source added.

Jolie made popular the first two Tomb Raider films by playing the gun-touting archaeologist Lara Croft.
