    Sophie Turner May Play Lara Croft in Live-Action Series

    Mary Anne ButlerBy 1 Min Read

    The upcoming live-action series adaptation of popular video game franchise “Tomb Raider” has found its lead. No, this isn’t the same as Netflix’s animated series. No, this also isn’t a continuation of the Alicia Vikander-starring live-action “Lara Croft” reboot. This is the series being developed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge for Prime Video.

    Sophie Turner (“Game of Thrones“) is apparently on the top of the list to take on the mantle of Lady Croft. Sources say the deal isn’t fully done yet, so, we’ll keep an ear to the ground.

    Crystal Dynamics and Amazon MGM Studios partnered for the project.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
