Filming for Amazon Prime's £100 million Lara Croft TV adaptation has been significantly disrupted due to a back injury sustained by lead actress Sophie Turner. Production at Shepperton Studios has reportedly been halted for a month following the incident, which aggravated a pre-existing condition for the Game of Thrones star.

Fears are mounting that Turner may require up to six months to recover. This has thrown the entire production into jeopardy, especially as a substantial portion of the reboot had already been filmed. Producers are reportedly facing a significant challenge, as replacing Turner at this stage is deemed too difficult.
