Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is based on the wildly popular Millennium Trilogy books by Stieg Larrson. The books have since been adapted into movies by the Swedish cinema, but this is the first American adaptation with David Fincher directing, Rooney Mara starring, and score produced by Trent Reznor, all of whom worked with Fincher on his last Academy Award nominated feature, The Social Network.
Here's the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo book synopsis from Amazon.com:
Harriet Vanger, a scion of one of Sweden’s wealthiest families disappeared over forty years ago. All these years later, her aged uncle continues to seek the truth. He hires Mikael Blomkvist, a crusading journalist recently trapped by a libel conviction, to investigate. He is aided by the pierced and tattooed punk prodigy Lisbeth Salander. Together they tap into a vein of unfathomable iniquity and astonishing corruption.
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo releases in the US on December 21, 2011.
Check out the trailer below. It doesn't explain anything plot-wise, but it sure as hell looks cool, and I guess David Fincher can get away with that.
