yup, still a good idea. My thoughts about Fincher's film have pretty much taken a 180, but Fede Alvarez has proven himself to be a very capable director, especially around material like this. With a good screenwriter, I'm absolutely confident they can nail this, and they have one in Steven Knight. Claire Foy is going to be a perfect Lisbeth. Nothing to be nervous or upset about.

I am stoked. Foy looks great.

Eh, I still wish it were Mara returning to the role. Foy looks okay but it seems like she's doing an impression of Rapace/Mara rather than her own thing. But we'll see.

I love Foy but i can't picture anyone other than Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander.

Alvarez really put an effort to copy Fincher. Not that there are a million ways to shoot this story properly, but the visuals immediately calls back to his Millenium picture. Also, Foy's accent/voice sounds weird. She looks wrong, like a posh british girl dressing up as a punk (which is exactly what she's doing) instead of a proper punk. The idea of a movie exploring Lisbeth's background is good, but no Mara, no me.

Foy looks fine but the rest of it screams so much like a generic action-thriller.

I sooooo wanted to be behind this thing because I like Alvarez and have faith in Foy's talent, but goddamn these trailers are disappointing. Foy looks all wrong. Short hair + black leather + a nose ring doesn't equal punk, how could they weaken her look this much? Next to Rapace and Rooney, this is punk-lite at best. Not digging the dialogue either, or Foy's accent. The cinematography looks amazing but like bob said, it's only because they're blatantly copying Jeff Cronenweth. I guess some of the action might be fine, but I don't come to a Lisbeth movie for big action sequences, I come for a compelling story. I hope Alvararez realizes that. Much deflated right now At least we still have Suspiria.

Looks okay, but I still wish Fincher was involved. It just seems so standard.

Yeah, not really feeling this. Echoing other people's reactions, Foy seems wrong for the part and this just looks like a bland action thriller. Is she a vigilante now?

I dunno, I think it looks quite good. And I don't really feel that they're ripping Fincher off. His style and his colors are too distinct, this is not them.

Such a weird casting decision. At least she's not playing safe in her roles. I liked her eye makeup, but her hair is rather weird and she doesn't look svelt enough in her face. Her bone structure and facial features don't fit the role. Her dragon tattoo is so ugly! Terrible style. And her accent: there were some words that sounded British, German, and what I assume is supposed to be any Scandinavian country that a dart landed on when thrown at a map. I really don't like their choice for Blomkvist. He's better off not being in the movie, or at the very least, having a noticeable age difference (though Daniel Craig was old enough, he was just really miscast, while I think Foy will at least be more interesting to watch, even if it's not all that convincing).
Good cinematography, at least. Seems like she's trying to be Batman. I'll likely still watch this.

Yeah, no.
Even though Don't Breathe was very Fincher-y in style, I trust Alvarez to at least try to do his own thing here and not just settle for a rehash of his predecessor's work.
The problem is, anyone would struggle to follow up what he and Mara pulled off with TGWTDT, and this looks like a generic knockoff without any of that film's style or atmosphere. Gonna have to echo Bob's thoughts here: whereas Rooney was pitch-perfect casting as Lisbeth, Foy just looks completely wrong physically. She looks like the total opposite of the character, and I'm not sure she'll be able to shake that posh, period piece aura of hers and truly disappear into the part. Not anticipating this one, tbh.
(Also, as usual, let me seize this opportunity to reiterate: fuck Sony for giving Fincher and Mara the finger.)

This just makes me mad. Mara was perfect. I can't picture anyone else in the role. This looks like a cheap Fincher imitation. The fact that Mara wanted to do it again makes it even worse. I've always wanted a Fincher/Mara sequel. As far as "lost" projects go, this tops my list. The first one is in my top 15 of the decade. Hard pass.

The fact that Mara wanted to do it again makes it even worse. That email exchange between her and Amy Pascal was a bitter one to swallow.

Good cast but it looks like a dollar store version of the Fincher one.
