Tomb Raider has been a huge part of my life and I feel incredibly privileged to be bringing it to television with such passionate collaborators. Lara means a lot to me, as she does to many, and I can't wait to go on this adventure. Bats 'n all," said Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

"I'm so happy to announce that we have ordered the epic, globetrotting series Tomb Raider from the incredibly gifted Emmy-award winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge and the team at Crystal Dynamics," said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios. "Fans and newcomers can look forward to exhilarating adventures that honor the legacy of this iconic character."
