Waller-Bridge will write the series, based on the popular video game franchise.
Amazon's Prime Video announced at its inaugural upfront presentation on May 14 that Lara Croft, the world-famous archaeologist and adventurer who has inspired fans in video games and feature films, is getting her own show."If I could tell my teenage self this was happening I think she'd explode," Waller-Bridge said in a statement.
Crystal Dynamics -- the studio behind the recent "Tomb Raider" video game trilogy reboot -- and Amazon MGM Studio are producing the series. No further details about the cast, including who will play Lara Croft, or a premiere date were shared in the announcement.
