If Sansa Stark had to fight the Night King one-on-one she could have. How do we know? Because Sophie Turner, who played Sansa for all eight seasons of Game of Thrones, recently showed off a poolside picture of herself flexing her guns and showing off her six-pack, looking ready to bench press the army of the dead:
Turner originally posted this picture as part of a collage on her Instagram, but it's since been deleted. Per E!, she was at the bachelorette party for singer Taura Lamb, clearly having a great time.
The account above, westerosies, is a great source for Game of Thrones-related news. It suggests that Turner is getting into shape so she can play Lara Croft in an upcoming live-action Tomb Raider show for Prime Video, and she does indeed look ready to take on the dangers of archeology. But last we heard, that planned Tomb Raider show wasn't going forward, so she may be fit just because.
To be fair, we don't know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Tomb Raider show isn't happening, but with the executive team at Amazon changing recently and little news about what could be a high-profile show, that's the rumor going around. The show was going to be spearheaded by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who signed a lucrative development deal with Amazon but has produced very little. It's a shame, because I think that could have been an exciting role for Turner.
Whatever happens with the Tomb Raider show, Turner will be starring in a different Prime Video series called Haven, where she plays an office worker who gets caught up in a heist plot. Beyond that, she's gotten a lot of attention for her personal life in the past few years. Turner got married to singer Joe Jonas, with whom she had two children, in 2019. They split up last year.
