1 Apr - The upcoming Prime Video adaptation of "Tomb Raider" has currently paused production, after its star Sophie Turner sustained an injury.

The British actress, who is playing the iconic video game character Lara Croft, was earlier revealed to have sustained a minor injury, which, however, has aggravated a pre-existing back injury.

A rep for Prime Video stated, "As a precaution, production has briefly paused to allow her time to recover. We look forward to resuming production as soon as possible."
