Amazon MGM Studios paused filming on its upcoming Tomb Raider series after star Sophie Turner sustained a minor injury.

Turner was cast as video game hero Lara Croft in September 2025, with the studio releasing photos of her in costume this January. Phoebe Waller-Bridge serves as creator, writer, executive producer and co-showrunner for the series based on the popular video game franchise. The cast includes Sigourney Weaver, Jason Isaacs, and Martin Bobb-Semple. Previous film versions starred Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander as Croft. Amazon expects to resume production soon.
