Remember back in May 2020 when we reported that Amazon Studios and Sony Pictures Television were developing a series focusing on the late author Stieg Larsson's popular The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo character Lisbeth Salander? Well, it's a little more than three years later, and we have an update courtesy of Variety.
Veena Sud has been tapped to serve as the showrunner for the streaming series. Produced by Amazon MGM Studios & Left Bank Pictures , the series was originally reported not to be a sequel or a continuation of any storylines from the books or films. Instead, the project places Salander in our modern world with a new setting, new supporting characters, and new storylines . Left Bank Pictures founder and CEO Andy Harries and Rob Bullock were originally announced to executive produce .
A primary reason for the franchise's 100 million-plus book sales worldwide, Salander's literary life began with Larsson's three original 'Millenium' novels: The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest. Following the original author's passing, David Lagercrantz would continue the series with The Girl in the Spider's Web, The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye, and The Girl Who Lived Twice.
