Production on the Amazon Tomb Raider series has restarted following a two-week shutdown caused by an injury to star Sophie Turner. Sources say the pause will not affect the overall schedule. The actress was sidelined but not hurt during filming.
Sources with direct knowledge confirmed to TMZ that filming on the Tomb Raider series has resumed after halting for a couple of weeks due to Sophie Turner's undisclosed injury. The production team kept the crew paid throughout the downtime, ensuring no disruptions beyond the brief pause. Officials indicated the stoppage will not delay the project's timeline despite the setback with its lead actress. Sophie Turner, who performs several of her own stunts as adventurer Lara Croft, sustained the injury off-set and was out of action for about two weeks. The series, a live-action adaptation of the popular video game, features Turner alongside Jason Isaacs and Sigourney Weaver. Phoebe Waller-Bridge leads the project as creator, writer, executive producer, and co-showrunner. Shooting has taken place in the UK and various locations, with the Amazon platform set to release the highly anticipated show.
