The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a film directed by David Fincher, adapted from Stieg Larsson's Swedish-language novel of the same name by Steven Zaillian. The film stars Daniel Craig as Mikael Blomkvist and Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander.

This English-language adaptation of the Swedish novel by Stieg Larsson follows a discredited journalist (Daniel Craig) and a mysterious computer hacker discover that even the wealthiest families have skeletons in their closets while working to solve the mystery of a 40-year-old murder in this David Fincher-directed remake of the 2009 Swedish thriller of the same name. Inspired by late author Stieg Larsson's successful trilogy of books, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo gets under way as the two leads (Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara) are briefed in the disappearance of Harriet Vanger, whose uncle suspects she may have been killed by a member of their own family. The deeper they dig for the truth, however, the greater the risk of being buried alive by members of the family, who will go to great lengths to keep their secrets tightly sealed.
