As a movie enthusiast with over two decades of cinematic journey under my belt, I must say that the news about Sophie Turner potentially playing Lara Croft in Amazon’s “Tomb Raider” series has me genuinely excited!
According to reports from EbMaster, Sophie Turner is almost certain to star as the main character in Amazon’s forthcoming “Tomb Raider” television series.
Reports indicate that the deal is still pending finalization but is anticipated to be wrapped up soon. Turner will portray Lara Croft, the main character known as the Tomb Raider. The series received approval from Amazon earlier this year with Phoebe Waller-Bridge set to script and produce it under her overall contract with Amazon. It was initially announced that the show was in development at the streaming service in January 2023.
Reps for Amazon MGM Studios declined to comment.
Turner is now assuming the character of Croft, a role initially introduced in the famed “Tomb Raider” computer game franchise. Previously, this globe-trotting explorer was depicted cinematically by Angelina Jolie in two movies and by Alicia Vikander in one.
Sophie Turner is primarily recognized for portraying Sansa Stark in the HBO’s “Game of Thrones” for all eight seasons. In 2019, she received an Emmy nomination for her outstanding performance as a supporting actress in a drama series. Apart from this role, she gained fame for her portrayal of Jean Grey in later X-Men films like “X-Men: Apocalypse” and “X-Men: Dark Phoenix.” More recently, she appeared in the ITV/CW miniseries titled “Joan” and the Max series entitled “The Staircase.
She is repped by CAA, Independent Talent Group, and Brecheen Feldman.
The “Tomb Raider” series is being created through an agreement between Crystal Dynamics and Amazon MGM Studios. This partnership arises from dj2’s initial deal with the studio, which gives them the opportunity to develop further “Tomb Raider” narratives for both television and film.
This action-adventure series originates from the creative minds at Crystal Dynamics, Amazon MGM Studios, and Legendary Television. The executive producer team includes Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jenny Robins through Wells Street Productions, Dmitri M. Johnson via dj2 Entertainment, and Michael Scheel. Amanda Greenblatt and Ryan Andolina serve as consulting producers under their Star Party label. The series is jointly produced by Crystal Dynamics and Amazon MGM Studios.
Deadline first reported Turner’s casting.
