It won't hit cinema screens until December 2011, yet David Fincher's much-anticipated adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is already getting people talking - thanks to a rather revealing movie poster.

Posing topless for the brooding promo shot, above the slogan Evil Shall Be Expelled With Evil, Hollywood newcomer Rooney Mara looks almost unrecognisable in her guise as Lisbeth Salander - complete with piercings and infamous tattoos - while Daniel Craig smoulders as journalist Blomkvist.

The big budget Hollywood remake of Stieg Larsson’s phenomenally-successful trilogy is still being filmed in Sweden's Uppsala and Stockholm - the very same locations in which the story is set - with the stars spotted on set just last week.
