Who will play in the new movie?

Some said that Noomi Rapace cannot be replaced. She is performing like she IS Lisbeth Salander. But now the new cast for the American version is done:


Daniel Craig will star in the Hollywood remake of the superb Swedish thriller The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. It's due out Dec. of 2011.


David Fincher's directing it. Who will play the title role, that of the sexually abused, rough-and-ready bisexual computer hacker/security expert who helps Craig's disgraced reporter with his investigation into a murder mystery - the American actress Rooney Mara

The girl with the dragon tattoo


Stieg Larsson is the name of the Swedish writer of the Millennium triology. These three books is the story about a girl, Lisbeth Salander who together with a journalist, Mikael Blomkvist, is fighting really dangerous people. Mikael Blomkvist is working at a Magazine called The Millennium.

The three books The girl with the Golden Tattoo, The girl who played with fire and, The girl who kicked the hornets nest, have all been made into movies in Sweden. I must say there is some kind of record in viewers.

Now book number one, The girl with the golden tattoo is going to be made in US. The leading mail Mikael Blomkvist is going to be played by Daniel Craig.

The question about who will be Lisbeth Salander is still out in the open. The acress Noomi Rapace, who plays in all three movies, would be the best choice. But she has turned the offer down. So now - who will be Lisbeth Salander in the remake?

Another Swedish born actor will play a big part.Stellan Skarsgard.

I recommend that you read these three books. Even if the movie has a really good script, nothing can be compared to these three books!

This is a taste of Lisbeth Salander

Its true that books are almost always better than movies as you wont find much detail in movies. However i think many people like to watch movies than to read books.

The books do sound interesting, and you're right, books are almost always better than the movie. Movies add some nice visual effect but they lack most of the detail that really pulls you into a story.
