The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo set for December 12, 2011 release
Fincher will be directing from a script by Steven Zaillian, which is based off the Stieg Larsson book of the same name. The film will be an Americanized version of the Niels Arden Oplev Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which was released stateside on March 19.
Our report from yesterday included comments from Sony Pictures chairman Amy Pascal, who indicated that this new film will not only be faithful to the original book, but that they are hoping for a trilogy of films.

I'm usually against Hollywood remakes of good foreign films, but I really like Fincher's work so I am very interested to see his take on the material.

I didn't realize Steve Zaillian was writing the screenplay. That's excellent news.
