In her grand entrance, Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara) pulls off her motorcycle helmet to reveal a wild, ravishing hairdo and sulks into her employer’s office to meet her client. She does not do this often. She is lonely, socially inept, and emotionally withdrawn. Her job as a freelance hacker keeps her contact with others to a minimum and feeds her secretive lifestyle. Lisbeth has a photographic memory, is extremely intelligent but also admits to being insane, which makes her the perfect heroine to deal with a serial killer. Inspired by Stieg Larsson’s best-selling novel, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and the Swedish film adaptation of the same name, director David Fincher put his own atmospheric, detailed, and intense mark on the first installment of the Millennium Trilogy in what is surely this year’s most chilling and depressing Christmas film.

Dutch actor Yorick van Wageningen (”Beyond Borders,” “The Chronicles of Riddick”) is set to play the small but key role of Nils Bjurman in David Fincher's upcoming adaptation of best-selling thriller "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" reports De Volkskrant (via The Playlist).
In the books, Bjurman is the brutish new court appointed guardian over Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara) when her previous guardian Holger Palmgren (Bengt C.W. Carlsson) suffers a heart attack. The character's actions are amongst the darkest in the trilogy but are also key components of the story.
Swedish actress Mathilda von Essen has also joined the cast as Anita Vanger, sister of Cecilia, a part cut out of the previous Swedish film adaptations.
