The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Featurette

by Helen Earnshaw | 9 December 2011

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is one of the movies that I am really looking forward to over the next couple of weeks.

I have to admit I am never usually a big fan or remakes but this one looks set to be a huge hit at the box office - well when David Fincher is behind the project you can't really expect much else.

Daniel Craig takes over the central role of Mikael Blomkvist while Rooney Mara is set to make her breakthrough as Lisbeth Salander.

In this latest featurette Rooney Mara and director David Fincher talk about the movie and the characters as well as there being some footage from the movie.

Harriet Vanger disappeared off the secluded island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger family. There was no corpse, no witnesses, no evidence.

Nearly forty years later a journalist by the name of Mikael Blomqvist gets an unusual assignment. He’s contacted by Harriet’s uncle, Henrik Vanger, who wants him to find out what really happened to Harriet.

Mikael takes on the job, with help from mysterious biker girl and computer hacker Lisbeth Salander.

This unlikely pair form a fragile bond as they dig into the sinister past of this family and find out just how far they're prepared to go to protect themselves - and each other.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is released 26th December
