Last year, we got brief glimpses of actress Rooney Mara in the highly-coveted role of Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher’s adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. From a blurry set photo here and there, she kind of looks the part. But this past weekend, Mara walked the red carpet at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala (or PSIFFAG) with her Social Network costars and gave us all a good look at her Salander hair-style. I’m sure once Fincher’s take hits theaters, there will be much debate over who was the better Salander: Mara or Noomi Rapace, who played the role in the Swedish adaptation. But for now, Mara at least looks the part.
Hit the jump to check out the images. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo also stars Daniel Craig, Stellan Skarsgard, and Robin Wright. It’s slated to open on December 21st. Click here to read Steve’s interview with Fincher. Click here to check out more of our Girl with the Dragon Tattoo coverage.

For those just tuning in, here’s the synopsis for Stieg Larsson’s novel, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo:
An international publishing sensation, Stieg Larsson’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo combines murder mystery, family saga, love story, and financial intrigue into one satisfyingly complex and entertainingly atmospheric novel.
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.

Why is it called “Girl with the dragon tattoo” when the title of the first book is called “Men who hates women”.
Please dont tell me they changed because the original title, for some weird reason, is considered political incorrect.
Its one thing that the unimaginative hollywood for god knows which time, makes another remake(this one only two years after the original), but do they really have to change the title as well. When is enough enough?
I wonder why a skilled filmmaker like Fintcher even wants to do a remake. I quess he needs the money. Sad.
you just had an argument with yourself. Like fill in the blanks or something.
no because men who hate women is a dumb ass title
I’d have to agree with Nelson on this, and also, I think Men who hate women is the sub-title, GWADT is the main title. Which is why the other two books also start with “Girl who…” etc,.
I saw the Swedish versions and they are pretty great, especially the first film…but I bet Fincher wants to do a remake b/c American audiences avoid foreign films like Herpes, and it is an incredible story that he wants to make more accessible to dumb American audiences…for money.
Men who hate women is the original title, TGWTDT was chosen for the english translation and because it felt more natural, and I agree with the change (the third book is actually the castle in the sky that fell apart or something like that)
I thought the swedish films were really mediocre compared to the books, they felt rushed and incomplete. Noomi Rapace’s Lisbeth and Michael Nyqvist’ Mikael were the only great thing I found about the movie. Other than that, they felt like they were directly made for TV, nothing really special nor important. The books deserve much more; they deserve a genius like Fincher with a decent budget.
