With all the chatter surrounding David Fincher's "The Social Network" opening this Friday, it's been a temporary reprieve from the noise around the other movie he's gearing up to shoot, "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."Well, expect the buzz to build again as Christopher Plummer as joined the cast in the role of Henrik Vanger, the wealthy industrialist who hires Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig) to dig into the decades old murder mystery, digging up dark secrets in the process. As you might recall, Max Von Sydow was in talks to take the role last month, but evidently, Plummer landed the part.
Plummer will join Craig, Rooney Mara (who was not injured on set), Robin Wright and Stellan Skarsgaard in the film that is set to begin filming in Sweden this fall. Fincher will be directing from a script by Steve Zaillian ("Schindler's List," "Gangs Of New York") and the film is slated for a December 22, 2011 release. [THR]
