Rooney Mara is also locked into the lead role of the series which begins with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo; the subsequent entries are The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.
The screenplay is written by Steve Zaillian and the film is being produced by Scott Rudin, Cean Chaffin, Ole Sondberg and Søren Stærmose. Mikael Wallen and Anni Fernandez are executive producers.

The books had extremely edgy and disturbing content, I doubt that any mainstream HW film can show all that; expecting them to water it down just like they did with Insomnia.
