Filming resumes on Amazon’s Tomb Raider adaptation, after Sophie Turner’s back injury halted production last month
Filming on Amazon’s live-action Tomb Raider adaptation has successfully resumed following a production halt that began in March. Star Sophie Turner, who was cast as the iconic protagonist Lara Croft, sustained a back injury that temporarily halted production. The severity of the injury was initially unclear, with the recovery timeline uncertain and potentially ranging from a matter of weeks to several months. Fortunately, Turner’s recovery proved swift, and filming has now resumed with no significant delays expected. According to reporting from TMZ on the production status, the pause is not anticipated to impact the show’s overall production schedule or timeline. Beyond the production news itself, the series has attracted considerable fan interest regarding its filming locations and production design. Viewers have been actively speculating about the real-world sites and locations being used for various settings in the adaptation, particularly Croft Manor, the iconic ancestral estate that serves as a central location throughout the Tomb Raider franchise.
