Noomi Rapace, who played Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, may be about to break out stateside in a big way. While Rapace isn’t a household name in America yet, Stieg Larsson’s “Millenium Trilogy” (of which Dragon Tattoo is the first part) novels are still tearing up the bestseller list and the movie is one of the hottest titles on Netflix “Watch Instantly”. Rapace also won the Swedish equivalent of an Oscar for her performance as Salander and now Magnolia Pictures wants to get her an Oscar nomination for that performance. Deadline reports that Rapace is basically being set up to be the next Marion Cotillard. Hit the jump to find out about the ridiculous amount of high-profile roles she’s been meeting for.

Over the last few days I’ve been posting a ton of red carpet and backstage interviews from this year’s Saturn Awards. And up now…Scott Porter.
As Jason Street on “Friday Night Lights” and Rex Racer in the Wachowski Brother’s “Speed Racer”, Scott’s been busy these last few years. And as he told me on the red carpet, he just filmed a pilot called “Masterwork” and he explains what it’s about after the jump. He also joked around about his part in “Prom Night”. Take a look:
