Music Box Films released the second movie based on the acclaimed novel trilogy
In this Swedish Fire, actress Noomi Rapace reprises her role as Lisabeth Salander, the punked-out computer-hacking heroine of Larsson’s book series, which has sold some 40 million copies in nearly 50 countries around the world.
The movie version of thriller The Girl Who Played With Fire, which was directed by Daniel Alfredson and also stars Michael Nyqvist, has grossed $5 million at the box office and is on track to become one of the year’s highest-grossing foreign-language movies in the U.S.
In this second movie in the series, Salander is a wanted woman and only Nyqvist’s Mikael Blomkvist character believes in her innocence. Digging deeper, Blomkvist finds evidence that implicates highly placed members of Swedish society as well as shocking details about Salander’s past. He must get to her before she’s cornered, but no one knows where she is.
Priced at $29.95 and $34.95, respectively, the DVD and Blu-ray offers the movie in Swedish with English subtitles as well as dubbed in English.
Hollywood is making its own versions of Larrson’s series. The American The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo will star Rooney Mara (A Nightmare On Elm Street) as Salander and Daniel Craig (Casino Royale) as Blomkvist. The film will be in theaters December 2011, with the second in the series, The Girl Who Played With Fire planned for 2012.
