“I’ve been a long-time fan of Tomb Raider and the character of Lara,” said Turner. “She has always felt, for me, very emboldened in a male-dominated world. She’s a fierce female role model!”

“Tomb Raider boasts a plethora of iconic characters,” said Waller-Bridge. “I am thrilled to have been able to bring some personal and fan favourites to the screen while also introducing a few new rascals of our own to the mix. This cast is beyond my wildest dreams!” –
