The teaser for the English-language version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo has leaked, and it's harrowing, violent, and intense, but boy does it look amazing. David Fincher directed this adaptation of Stieg Larsson's book, which has Rooney Mara as the titular character, Lisbeth Salander, the pierced and fiercely private computer hacker. Daniel Craig plays journalist Mikael Blomkvist, and though the teaser has no dialogue, the cast seems perfectly up to snuff.

Set to Trent Reznor and Karen O's cover of Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song," we just get flashes of the story following Blomkvist and Salander's investigation into the disappearance of a member of the mysterious Vanger family years earlier. There's also lots of action, blood, and hints at the the story's more disturbing scenes, plus the ominous promise that this is "The Feel Bad Movie of Christmas." Not that it'll deter anyone, because this first look at the film makes it look truly insane — and I mean that in the best way possible.

UPDATE: Sony has released a green-band version of the trailer, which is a little less violent, but still intense. Watch it when you read more

Filming is underway for David Fincher's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and W magazine scored the first look at Rooney Mara all done up as Lisbeth Salander. Right off the bat, Mara looks a little sexier than the Swedish version of Lisbeth (and I certainly don't remember that huge "Salander" tattoo across her chest from the book).

This photo isn't the only peek inside the movie, either: Director Fincher opens up about his vision, how it will differ from the books, and why it was so hard to find the perfect actress to play Lisbeth. Most notably, the article points out that the ending of the film will be totally different than that of the book — but will it be better?

I found that the novel's ending tied up the story quite nicely, but I'm intrigued about screenwriter's Steven Zaillian's take. So, Dragon Tattoo fans, how do you feel about Mara in all that black leather? And are you ready for a different final act?

Finally! After months of speculation, Sony has picked an actress for the coveted role of Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Rooney Mara (Kate Mara's lil sis) has just signed a three-picture deal for the franchise, which is set to begin filming next month.

Mara most recently appeared in Youth in Revolt and A Nightmare on Elm Street, but this should be her breakthrough role if all goes according to plan.

Mara wasn't your top choice for the role when I polled you about the contenders last month, but now that it's set in stone, can you see her opposite Daniel Craig?
