As a precaution, production has briefly paused to allow her time to recover. We look forward to resuming production as soon as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Sun newspaper reports Sophie aggravated a previous back injury which she discovered during training for the series.<\/p>\n<p>A source told the publication: &#8220;It&#8217;s been chaos on set and now the whole show is in jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sophie has been throwing herself into the role, but the \u00adgruelling physicality of being Lara Croft has meant she has pushed her body too far.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many on set fear Sophie may have to be replaced altogether now, as she may not bounce back in time. It&#8217;s been a hugely physical role and pushed her to the limit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But so much has already been shot that it&#8217;s causing a real headache for producers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sophie recently opened up about her back issues explaining she discovered a problem when she spent months trying to get into shape for the physically demanding role.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on The Julia Cunningham Show, the actress explained: &#8220;We&#8217;ve been doing eight hours a day, five days a week since February of last year, of training. Yeah, so it&#8217;s been a lot.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve learnt I have a perpetual back problem, but I also realised that it&#8217;s much easier to kind of build muscle if you&#8217;ve ever worked out before in your life, which I never had, so it has taken me months and months and months to get into good shape. That&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve learned.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sophie is best known for her role as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones but she insisted her years on the fantasy drama series didn&#8217;t help prepare her for Tomb Raider because she was never involved in any action scenes.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if Game of Thrones had helped her at all, she replied: &#8220;No, I was the cool queen who, like, didn&#8217;t have to do that. I also just kind of was the one that got beat up, not the one doing the beating. So, it&#8217;s quite nice to learn how to throw a punch and not just take it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[[nid:732561]]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.asiaone.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sophie Turner has been injured while filming the new Tomb Raider TV series.
