There’s white smoke emerging from the Tomb Raider chimney, as the next Lara Croft has been chosen – an actor who’s no stranger to big action, with several franchises under her utility belt. Sophie Turner will be following in the footsteps of Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander , set to lead the long-awaited live-action series from Prime Video. “I am thrilled beyond measure, to be playing Lara Croft,” said Turner in a statement. “She’s such an iconic character, who means so much to so many – and I am giving everything I’ve got. They’re massive shoes to fill, following in the steps of Angelina and Alicia with their powerhouse performances, but with Phoebe at the helm, we (and Lara) are all in very safe hands.
