The latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter has a rocking article about Mr. Fincher and in said article they reveal that the filmmaker already has his idea of the GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO one-sheet layed out. Check it:
Finally, we reach his spare, modern office, centered on a wooden desk as imposing as Fincher himself. Warming up — as much as he ever allows himself — he takes out an iPad and clicks on a photo he’s planning to use for the Dragon poster. It shows actor Daniel Craig half-hidden behind co-star Rooney Mara, who’s looking directly into the camera. Her hair is spiky, her face pierced with rings, her body covered in tattoos. It’s black and white and beautiful, but there’s no way in hell any studio will ever let Fincher use it, as he knows. Because Mara is naked from the waist up.
While that would be one hell of a poster I highly doubt there’s any chance of it seeing the light of day. Actually I can almost gurantee it, unfortunately. You guys think Fincher is going off the deep end a little with this idea or does it fit right along with the filmmaker’s style and the intense film? Hit us with what you think below!
Forty years ago, when Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her body was never found, yet her uncle is convinced it was murder and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed, ruthless computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link Harriet’s disappearance to a number of grotesque murders from almost forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. But the Vanger’s are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.
Along with Mara (pictured) and Craig the flick is also set to star Stellan Skarsgard, Robin Wright, Christopher Plummer, Joely Richardson, Bengt W.C. Carlsson, Mathilda von Esse and Yorick van Wageningen. This shite is still rolling with plenty of updates sure to come before it’s December 21st release date so be sure to keep checking back for more!
