Keeley Hawes, best known for Spooks, Bodyguard, Line of Duty and Ashes to Ashes, has been photographed on the set of Amazon’s upcoming Tomb Raider series, prompting widespread fan speculation that she may portray Lara Croft’s mother.
The sightings, shared on social platforms and reported by gaming press, have generated discussion among fans about the character line-up for the live‑action adaptation. Observers pointed to Hawes’s on‑set presence and period wardrobe as possible clues that her role could be connected to Lara Croft’s family backstory.
The Tomb Raider series remains under active production for Amazon, and casting announcements have been sporadic. There has been no official confirmation from Amazon or the show’s producers about Hawes’s casting or the specifics of any role. Hawes’s extensive television credits make her a high‑profile addition should a formal casting be revealed.
