David Fincher is directing Rooney Mara, as Lisbeth Salander, in the American remake of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and now Mara graces the cover of W Magazine for their February 2011 Movie Issue.
The 25-year-old underwent a huge transformation for a role that many, many actresses auditioned for. But Fincher claims he wanted Mara "from the beginning."
Fincher adds: "Rooney maybe a trust-fund baby from football royalty but she’s level headed and hard working. It’s so odd how who people are comes out in auditions. We didn’t make it easy for Rooney and there was no way to dissuade her."
So... does she look the part?
