Sophie Turner and Martin Bobb-Semple Shoot Motorcycle Chase for Amazon’s Tomb Raider

The filming for Amazon’s Tomb Raider series is now happening in Surrey, England, with Sophie Turner, who plays Lara Croft, doing an action scene.

In the new leaked set images, Turner as Lara Croft and Martin Bobb-Semple as Zip, a technical specialist who works closely with Lara Croft, are both fleeing on a motorcycle. Turner’s Lara is also seen doing knife-fight scenes in heavy rain.

The scenes were shot at night in woodland, which was transformed into a floodlit, mud-covered set for the action sequence.

It seems like Turner is doing most of the scenes herself without a stunt double. She was recently seen filming an action scene with a parachute for the series.

The series stars Turner as Lara Croft, alongside Martin Bobb-Semple as Zip, Sigourney Weaver as Evelyn Wallis, Jason Isaacs as Atlas DeMornay, Bill Paterson as Winston, Jack Bannon as Gerry, John Heffernan as David, and Celia Imrie as Francine, with Paterson Joseph, Sasha Luss, Juliette Motamed, and August Wittgenstein also appearing in the cast.

Here’s the plot details:

“The Prime Video series Tomb Raider is based on the iconic Tomb Raider video game franchise, which follows the adventures of world-famous archaeologist and adventurer Lara Croft.”

From Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who serves as creator, writer, executive producer, and co-showrunner alongside Chad Hodge, the series is directed by Jonathan Van Tulleken and produced by Story Kitchen, Crystal Dynamics, and Amazon MGM Studios.

The first Tomb Raider video game was released in 1996, quickly turning Lara Croft into a global action icon. The most recent installment, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, launched in 2018, while several classic titles have been remastered over the years. Two new games, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis and Tomb Raider: Catalyst, are slated for release in 2026 and 2027, respectively.

The Tomb Raider series is being developed through a partnership between Crystal Dynamics and Amazon MGM Studios, via Story Kitchen’s first-look deal to expand the franchise into additional films and television series.

The Tomb Raider series will release on Amazon Prime Video in 2027.
