Inside Sophie Turner’s wild transformation after she posts new pic looking ripped

There’s a major rumour about what inspired the gym journey


Sophie Turner had everyone more gagged than we were when we watched Game of Thrones‘ Red Wedding after she posted a new picture this week looking absolutely RIPPED. The transformation has everyone chatting over what might have prompted the big body journey for Sophie Turner as she looks wildly different, but it actually gives a lot of weight to the speculation on the role she’s allegedly in major talks to be playing if all goes ahead. Here’s a rundown of the body transformation as Sophie Turner breaks the internet with her abs and the role she’s being speculated to star in.

If this is true, it’s going to be major!

Sophie is BUFF

Sophie Turner posted a holiday picture showing off the body transformation, which shows her looking absolutely shredded with abs and biceps. It all feeds into the rumour that she was training hard for one iconic role – the rumour that she’s going to be playing Lara Croft in the upcoming Amazon TV series adaptation of Tomb Raider.

According to reports from Variety, Turner is in final negotiations to take on the role in a new live-action adaptation, which is being developed by Amazon MGM Studios and Legendary Television. The series is being helmed by everyone’s fave Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who’s on board as both writer and executive producer.

This latest iteration would see Sophie Turner following in the footsteps of previous portrayals by Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander. Turner’s casting marks a bold new direction for the franchise, with sources suggesting she’s been training hard to physically transform and that she’d be doing her own stunts. And obvs, if you’ve played any Tomb Raider game, you know the stunts are wild to say the least.

Despite the buzz, there’s been some uncertainty behind the scenes. After years in development—six, to be exact—there are whispers that the project could still face cancellation. However, Amazon hasn’t made any official announcements, and fans remain hopeful. There were also rumours prior to this picture that the project had maybe been shelved and there wasn’t any script.

With the project being so unsure and little to no updates for fans, thank god Sophie Turner is here to fuel the fire a bit. Because now everyone is once again PERCHED.
