Sophie Turner was working hard to bring Lara Croft to life for Prime Video. Playing an action hero requires a lot of running, jumping, and fighting. Unfortunately, an old back injury became worse during these stunts.
According to reports, the production might be on hold for anywhere from one to six months. The team wants to make sure Sophie is 100% healthy before she puts her boots back on.
💡 Fun Fact: The series is written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the creator of the hit show Fleabag. She is known for making very smart and funny stories!

Lara Croft is one of the most famous characters in video games, and this new show is expected to be a massive hit. Fans are sending Sophie "get well soon" messages all over social media.
