And so many more!

Amazon has today announced new cast members for its upcoming live-action Tomb Raider series, and they include the likes of Alien‘s Sigourney Weaver, Star Trek Discovery‘s Jason Isaacs, and The Celebrity Traitors UK‘s Celia Imrie.

The new cast members are as follows:

• Martin Bobb-Semple is Zip (Lara Croft’s long-standing tech support and friend)
• Jason Isaacs is Atlas DeMornay (Lara’s uncle)
• Bill Paterson is Winston (the long-standing Croft family butler).

• Jack Bannon is Gerry (Lara’s personal pilot and snack collector)
• John Heffernan is David (an exhausted government official who finds himself tangled up in Lara’s unusual world)
• Celia Imrie is Francine (the Head of Advancement at the British Museum, focused solely on raising funds and glasses of champagne)
• Paterson Joseph is Thomas Warner (a senior government official brought in to clean up an almighty mess)
• Sasha Luss is Sasha (a fierce, deeply competitive new adversary of Lara’s)
• Juliette Motamed is Georgia (a devoted, by-the-books curator at the British Museum, dedicated to the ‘proper’ preservation of history)
• Sigourney Weaver is Evelyn Wallis (a mysterious, high-flying woman who is keen to exploit Lara’s talents)
• August Wittgenstein is Lukas (an illegal raider who shares history with Lara in more ways than one)

The new cast members join previously announced actor Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) as Lara Croft, alongside series creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag).

“Tomb Raider boasts a plethora of iconic characters. I am thrilled to have been able to bring some personal and fan favourites to the screen while also introducing a few new rascals of our own to the mix. This cast is beyond my wildest dreams,” said Waller-Bridge of the new announcements.

“I’ve been a long-time fan of Tomb Raider and the character of Lara. She has always felt for me, very emboldened in a male dominated world. She’s a fierce female role model,” added the newest Lara Croft, Sophie Turner.

It’s unclear when we should expect the series as yet.
