"According to Daily Mail, Waller-Bridge has long been working on the scripts and were deemed "not ready to shoot." Sources claim the series is more or less "dead," or at the very least, it won't be filming "in early 2025," despite a Prime Video executive saying otherwise last year. It didn't help when Jennifer Salke, who had a hand in ordering the show and personally overseeing it, departed from her role as Amazon Studios head last week.
Per a recent report from Puck, "Still, my favorite Salke move was giving Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the breakout creator of Fleabag, a $20 million-a-year overall deal in 2019. Sure, the TV business is littered with failed overalls, but when Waller-Bridge generated nothing in three years, Salke renewed the deal. Now, three years after that renewal, she still has nothing to show for it. Tomb Raider, which Waller-Bridge has been working on and which Salke was personally overseeing after announcing a series pickup last May, has now gone through two writers rooms and tens of millions of dollars in development costs. There's still no script."
They spent millions developing this show for years and still don't have a script. With Salke's firing at Amazon Prime this project is more or less dead.
