"I am thrilled beyond measure to be playing Lara Croft. She's such an iconic character who means so much to so many – and I am giving everything I've got. They're massive shoes to fill, following in the steps of Angelina and Alicia with their powerhouse performances, but with Phoebe at the helm, we (and Lara) are all in very safe hands."
The series' backstage operations are overseen by a professional creative crew. Jonathan van Tulleken will direct and produce the project. Additionally, Chad Hodge would serve as an executive producer and co-showrunner.
