The new series, which is inspired by the iconic Tomb Raider games and comes from Emmy-winning Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, will star Game of Thrones legend Sophie Turner as the new Lara Croft.
She continued: "I mean, I loved her in Game of Thrones. I loved that series, and I thought she... I just think she's amazing. Um, so I'm excited to see what she brings to the character, and, uh, yeah, I think she'll be magnificent.”
Asked whether there’s anything she hopes the new series doesn’t do, she added: “ No. I, I hope that they, you know, still keep her sassy, sort of acerbic, dry humour vibe. That would be good. Yeah.”
"No, I'll just watch it and just then I'll probably have a you know think a few things to say. But I'm sure it's going to be wonderful. You know, it's I've not really heard any of her stuff, so I can't really comment on that. But obviously, it's going to be great.”
When Turner, who is best known for playing Sansa Stark in the HBO fantasy epic Game of Thrones, was confirmed to be playing Lara Croft, she said in a statement: "I am thrilled beyond measure to be playing Lara Croft. She’s such an iconic character, who means so much to so many – and I am giving everything I’ve got."
Meanwhile, Waller-Bridge said: "I’m so excited to announce the formidable Sophie Turner as our Lara alongside this phenomenal creative team. It’s not very often you get to make a show of this scale with a character you grew up loving.
Alongside Turner, the new series also stars Sigourney Weaver, Jason Isaacs, Martin Bobb-Semple, Jack Bannon, John Heffernan, Bill Paterson, Paterson Joseph, Sasha Luss, Juliette Motamed, Celia Imrie and August Wittgenstein.
