UPDATED: NSFW and Topless Rooney Mara On the International ‘Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ Poster

UPDATE: I’ve added a second poster below the trailer courtesy of Slashfilm.

You shouldn’t be surprised David Fincher was able to score this very picture for the international poster (via Guy Lodge) for his The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo remake considering we were warned.

In the February issue of The Hollywood Reporter he told Stephen Galloway this was exactly what he was angling for:

Finally, we reach his spare, modern office, centered on a wooden desk as imposing as Fincher himself. Warming up — as much as he ever allows himself — he takes out an iPad and clicks on a photo he’s planning to use for the Dragon poster. It shows actor Daniel Craig half-hidden behind co-star Rooney Mara, who’s looking directly into the camera. Her hair is spiky, her face pierced with rings, her body covered in tattoos. It’s black and white and beautiful, but there’s no way in hell any studio will ever let Fincher use it, as he knows.

Because Mara is naked from the waist up.

Looks like Fincher was wrong… Columbia Pictures is a studio that would dare use it, at least internationally. Of course, don’t expect to see such scandalous promotional material for the film here in the States, and if you haven’t yet watched the newly released green band teaser for the film I’ve included it directly below.

Directed by David Fincher, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is set to hit theaters on December 21 and is based on Stieg Larsson’s internationally best-selling novel centering on a murder mystery looking as far back as 40 years at the disappearance of Harriet Vanger, a scion of one of Sweden’s wealthiest families. All these years later, her aged uncle continues to seek the truth. He hires Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig), a crusading journalist recently trapped by a libel conviction, to investigate. He is aided by the pierced and tattooed punk prodigy Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara). Together they tap into a vein of unfathomable iniquity and astonishing corruption.
