Speaking exclusively to Empire Online this week, Tomb Raider director Simon West revealed that the DVD version of the movie could be quite different to the version opening on screens around the UK today. In particular, deleted scenes that featured a British humour deemed too much for an American audience could be included. Asked whether we'd see that on the DVD, West said, 'I think so, I've done the DVD version already and there's extra stuff in that, but not a Director's cut. 'Who knows, often like a year or two later they ask you to do a Director's cut. It wouldn't be a 3 hour thing but it might be tonally different in some areas. People are horrified that [the DVD version] is not quite the same as it was in the theatre but I actually quite like the idea of having 2 or 3 different versions of the film.'
