Looks that the The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is already a history. Exactly, because the new girl is in town, and this time: The Girl Who Played With Fire. Sounds familiar?

Well, that’s the point, since we’re here today to share with you something exclusive, folks from Sony has begun deal talks with Steve Zaillian to adapt the second installment of the Millennium Trilogy of crime novels written by Stieg Larsson!

So, director David Fincher continues to audition actresses to play computer hacker Lisbeth Salander in Sony Pictures Entertainment’s The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, with production that is set to begin this fall with Daniel Craig playing journalist Mikael Blomkvist and with Robin Wright Penn in the role of Erika Berger, the publisher of crusading finance magazine Millennium.

Well, we guess that nothing could go wrong with this project, and they perfectly know that.

Let us remind you that the series has sold over 27 million copies worldwide!

On the other hand, Steve Zaillian penned the script for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo as well, and it seems guys from Sony are planning to stick with the same scriptwriter for the whole trilogy.
