Trailer: ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’

Check out this extended trailer for the upcoming US version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Though it’s not as zippy as the original teaser, the story based on the best-selling crime novel by the late Swedish author Stieg Larsson is explored further here. In this nearly 4-minute trailer audiences are properly introduced to Rooney Mara’s Lisbeth Salander and Daniel Craig’s Mikael Blomkvist. The cast is stacked with talent, and based on what we’ve seen so far this first chapter of the Millennium series is going to make a giant star out of Mara. What a roundabout in her appearance from David Fincher’s last film The Social Network, huh?

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo opens wide December 21, 2011. And just in case the trailer is removed from YouTube, watch it in HD at Apple.

Teaser trailer: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Here’s our first look at the US remake of the The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It’s based on the best-selling crime novel by Swedish author Stieg Larsson, which has already been turned into a feature film by Danish filmmaker Niels Arden Oplev. David Fincher is helming the US version, and he’s partnered with Social Network composer Trent Reznor and Karen O (Where The Wild Things Are). In the same vein as The Social Network trailer (for that Fincher collaborated with the Scala and Kolacny Brothers to cover Radiohead’s “Creep”), Reznor and Karen O were commissioned to create an eerie reimagining of Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” for the Dragon Tattoo trailer. Though there is no dialogue, the mysterious landscape is set for this three part tale of intrigue. Rooney Mara (The Social Network) stars as Lisbeth Salander alongside Daniel Craig, Robin Wright, and Stellan Skarsgård.
