July 23, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): ‘The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo’ happens to be the blockbuster Swedish mystery novel of Steig Larsson. It has been an immensely successful novel. The American movie version of this novel now possesses a discharge date of December 2011. This data was enunciated by the entertainment website, Deadline.

‘ The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo’ was accompanied with two other novels in Larsson’s Millennium trilogy. These three have already been adapted into Swedish films. These were initially discharged in 2009 and are now discharging worldwide.

One of the celebrities of ‘Twilight’ happens to be Kristen Stewart. She was, at the outset, in pole position to be ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,’ who happens to be the protagonist of the successful novel of Steig Larsson. The chitchat around Hollywood now is that the character may have been seized by ‘Inception’ star, Ellen Page.

In keeping with Deadline Hollywood, Page is in first place for the character of Lisbeth Salander. Stewart, Mia Wasikowska and Carey Mulligan are also with a shout. Wasikowska happens to be the ‘Alice in Wonderland’ star. Carey Mulligan happens to be a celebrity nominated by the Academy Awards.

The makers of the American version hope that Daniel Craig will agree to enact the character of the publisher, Mikael Blomkvist. Nonetheless, the timetable for filming may run counter to Craig’s character in the ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ and the next Bond motion picture. ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ is going to be produced by the legendary Steven Spielberg.

As one can see, the protagonists have yet to be selected. But the American movie adaptation has already been bequeathed a discharge date of December 21st, 2011. That will be the date in which it will compete against ‘The Adventures of Tintin’. This film will be directed by Spielberg and will also consist of Craig.

The Swedish film edition of ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,’ was discharged in DVD in America this month. It has earned in excess of $100 million globally.

The latest American edition will be directed by David Fincher. He has also helmed the forthcoming Facebook motion picture, ‘The Social Network’, and the 2008 film, ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.’ The latter had Brad Pitt in it.
