Deadline reported that Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner and Bohemian Rhapsody's Lucy Boynton are on the 'wishlist' to play the role. The site said they have not auditioned yet but are among those being seriously considered for the part.
Waller-Bridge is best known for creating the TV series Fleabag and writing and producing the show Killing Eve. She played Helena in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and was brought on to help improve the script for the James Bond movie No Time to Die.
'There's so much I can incorporate,' Waller-Bridge previously said about her past experiences with Indiana Jones and James Bond. 'I mean, the character of Lara Croft was inspired by Indiana Jones and James Bond. So there's so much, and it just felt like the perfect final step in my own personal adventure through this kind of franchise world.'
Deadline said the audition process for the new Tomb Raider show has been 'shrouded in secrecy,' and noted that the casting process to find Lara Croft could be 'one of the hottest TV casting searches' of the fall season.
