Sony has pulled the bootleg red-band trailer for David Fincher’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and replaced it with a family-friendly green-band trailer for the “Free Bad Movie of Christmas”.  Now two international posters for the film have gone online and they’re NSFW unless your workplace is totally cool with pictures of Rooney Mara’s pierced nipples.  The posters are basically the same and share the tagline Evil Shall with Evil Be Expelled (I think it’s supposed to be “Evil Shall Be Expelled with Evil”, but it doesn’t read that way since western languages typically read left to right, top to bottom).

Hit the jump for the international posters.  The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo opens December 21st. [Update: We have added a higher-res version of the UK quad along with the US poster, which is exactly like the French poster except the tagline is in English.]

Posters via IMP Awards.

Here’s the official synopsis for Stieg Larsson’s novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo:

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. [Amazon]

    So excited for this movie. I do love the original but I think it will be interesting to see Finchers spin on it. Plus I know I’ll be getting this soundtrack ASAP.

    No floating heads or bad Photoshop! Hooray!

    no disrespect to the Swedish film(i wouldn’t call it the “original”, the same way that i wouldn’t call Fincher’s film as a remake. THEY’RE BOTH ADAPTATION FOLKS! GET OVER IT!), but i doubt that Fincher really needed that film to give him the “look” and the “feel” for this adaptation. to be frank, i’m sure the director of the Swedish film tried to evoke some “Se7en” in his movie.

    Fincher pratically created this kind of mood for crime films in Se7en. it’s so funny people are criticizing him for exactly copying the Swedish film. i mean, i wouldn’t even be shocked if Fincher says he never saw the Swedish version.

    Now THAT looks like Lisbeth to me. Rooney Mara looks exactly like I pictured Lisbeth so we are off to a good start.

    I think Fincher does better with controversial material and he certainly has that type of material here. You know he’s gonna to go for it and it looks like the cast, especially Rooney Mara, are going to go for it as well.

    I liked the Swedish films but they felt a little flat to me. Noomi Rapace did a great job but I felt like it was missing something.

    Very excited about this film. A very, very, very nice Xmas present.

    Rooney Mara actually looks really hot donning the gothic look.

    that’s an incredible transformation, Roney Mara is a sweet beautiful girl and as Salander looks totally different, like a junkie skank…good job, let’s hope her acting goes with her physical change as well…

    Is anyone else completly un-nerved by Daniel Craig’s stare in this poster? Freaking creepy, man
