>In January, she opened up about the gruelling physical training she undertook for the entirety of 2025, stating: “We've been doing eight hours a day, five days a week since February of last year, of training.” >Turner also told *The Julia Cunningham Show* that she had never worked out before, which made training particularly harder. It's always going to be a challenge getting non-action actors to film action sequences

never worked out before?????

futuranotfree Mar 30, 2026 +161

being naturally skinny having hollywood nutritionists kept her fit-looking, you’d be surprised how lazy some people are.

Micp Mar 31, 2026 +75

It is kind of crazy to then go "yeah I could play Lara Croft". Like, I'm not very fit either, but I wouldn't go "yeah I could play an acrobatic fighter in an action movie!"

Two words: “Stunt doubles”

37

Micp Mar 31, 2026 +5

Good stunt people can work wonders, but even still if the main actor can't do anything by themselves you're in for Taken 3 levels of shitty action and bad cinematography and editing because you can't show the actors face whenever anything big is going on.

5

blindreefer Mar 31, 2026 +1

Not necessarily. Big budget filmmakers have definitely gotten lazier over the years but if you know your actors aren’t going to perform the stunts, you can and should plan ahead to shoot the stunts in a way that makes those stunts seamlessly woven into the action. There’s even a case from all the way back in 1993 where the post production VFX artists were able to superimpose Ariana Richards’s face onto her stunt double when she accidentally looked up at the camera. https://youtu.be/g5-oBlh_2lU?si=CEc_2B1VhKFAxW_V&t=478

> “We just used to sit there and eat and watch stupid videos and smoke weed,” Turner shared. That was during game of thrones so she was younger and we all know metabolisms slow as they age but that doesn’t sound like someone who followed nutritionists advice all that much.

I don't know... I just can't see her being a good Lara Croft - maybe I'm wrong, i would love a good movie! But.. yeah.. It also seems that they're sticking to the OG lara when the games moved away from that portrayal what, 15 years ago? Like.. okay then, we'll see but I don't have great hopes

-97

BreakfastPizzaStudio Mar 30, 2026 +26

I’m of the mind that OG Lara is the best Lara. True, my favorite game of the series is Legend, but there’s something about OG Lara that captivated all of us. Turner has done little to demonstrate her skills as a performer outside of young Sansa Stark—I’m hoping this is the thing she fully commits to and surprises everyone.

26

Ironsam811 Mar 30, 2026 +5

This could be a great opportunity for her to show new acting chops but goddamn its gonna be hard to surpass f****** Prime Angelina Jolie

linux_transgirl Mar 31, 2026 +3

It was the t***. That's what captivated the men, at least. We were happy to see a woman in a video game that wasn't pathetic or a charicature

BreakfastPizzaStudio Mar 31, 2026 +2

Definitely Lara being a babe caught people’s attention right away: but she had the right attitude, the smarts, the danger. It was more than the triangular t***.

LawfulValidBitch Mar 30, 2026 +5

The fact that they’re going with OG Lara is a bonus in my book. No shade on new Lara, but I want a throwback to the classic.

>It also seems that they're sticking to the OG lara when the games moved away from that portrayal what, 15 years ago? I'm guessing you haven't seen the trailers for the two new games.

Beavers4beer Mar 30, 2026 +1

They tried the new Lara about 10 years ago and it didn't do well. I think it's good their trying OG Lara again.

Imjustmean Mar 30, 2026 +152

They say minor but back injuries can be more serious than initially thought. I know from experience. Hopefully it is minor and production resumes shortly.

152

setokaiba22 Mar 30, 2026 +54

I think given the news articles about the injury this is a lot more serious than a minor delay because they are considering recasting it must be major

54

ElGoddamnDorado Mar 30, 2026 +26

Do you have a source for that? Because as far as I can tell, the only one reporting that they're considered recasting is the Sun/Daily Mail, and those are garbage tabloid publications.

26

draft_final_final Mar 30, 2026 +21

I just looked up her age, how the f*** is she 30 already rip. She’s still in Hollywood shape so hopefully she recovers quickly but back injuries are the f****** bane of adult life.

ThePaineOne Mar 30, 2026 +17

This is why, having worked in the entertainment business for a long time, I have always been against actors doing their own stunt work, one injury stops paychecks to a lot of people. I do acknowledge there are certain actors where that is part of the marketing appeal and general appeal of the film so I have an uncomfortable carve out for them.

17

ElSnarker Mar 31, 2026 +1

At the same time, it seems her injury initially occured during training. I agree with you that the whole idea of the stuntman star is overated and can be a major burden on the production and crew but I do expect the actor to at least to be physically fit enough to seemlessly transition between them and their stunt doubles. There's also the danger of an actor injuring themselves doing a fist fight (like Harrison Ford in Temple of Doom or Daniel Craig in Spectre) where the close up nature of the scene necessitates the star to be more involved to preserve believability/the suspension of disbelief that they are action heroes.

Omatzus Mar 30, 2026 +6

Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander are astronomically better actors than Turner. It'll be hard to live up to the role.

She probably saw the reaction just from the stills and knew she didn't want to do another Dark Phoenix. Still looks like a child playing dress up. Definitely not the Tomb Raider I grew up with.

ParrishThePoet Mar 30, 2026 -20

Based on your assumed meaning of my comment, you have no right to say anything. Dark Phoenix was an awful movie and she publicly stated that the backlash was hard to deal with personally. The game adaptation has already been done. Angelina Jolie was the perfect Tomb Raider choice. I could see Gal Gadot being a great Tomb Raider. Sophie Turner is no Tomb Raider. Like casting Kid Rock as Jack Reacher. She has no chops to be in this type of movie/show. She doesn't do "Mysteriously aggressive and s*** but also smart" and that's who Tomb Raider is. Enjoy this shit show.

-20

Gal Gadot is an absolutely insane take!

So it's okay if actress can't act as long as you find her hot?

16

ParrishThePoet Mar 30, 2026 -6

What? She can pull off the traits of the character. I didn't make Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider is a slightly more s*** and "darker" wonder woman. She already knows the attitude and can look the part. Sophie Turner has shown....she can't.

-6

JDDJS Mar 30, 2026 +11

Gal Gadot can't act at all.

11

ParrishThePoet Mar 30, 2026 +1

Neither can Turner. At least one part would be accurate.

1

JDDJS Mar 30, 2026 +5

While the writing went to shit, Turner was a great actress on Game of Thrones. Also, Turner is actually British, unlike Gadot, and Gadot infamously can't do any accent other than her own.
