Filming on Amazon’s new live-action Tomb Raider TV series has been paused after the lead actress, Sophie Turner, sustained what the studio calls a minor injury.

Amazon MGM Studios released a statement:.

“Sophie Turner recently experienced a minor injury. As a precaution, production has briefly paused to allow her time to recover. We look forward to resuming production as soon as possible.”

Details of the injury are not known at this time, but usually a production can schedule around them, so whatever it is must be serious enough for a production pause.

A story in The Hollywood Reporter says the crew will continue to be paid.

Filming started at the turn of the New Year and was scheduled to run for a couple more months.

The series is expected to start with Lara Croft already into her tomb raiding career, and there are rumors it may revolve around Norse mythology.

Thor. So hot right now.

Actress/writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge wrote the scrips and executive produces. The show was spinning its wheels for a while, so they brought in a Chad (Hodges) to co-showrun.

Tomb Raider also stars Sigourney Weaver, Jason Isaacs, Martin Bobb-Semple, Bill Paterson, Jack Bannon, John Heffernan, Celia Imrie, Paterson Joseph, Sasha Luss, Juliette Motamed, and August Wittgenstein.
