As far as she knows, Rooney Mara is still doing Dragon Tattoo sequel

It was recently reported that although David Fincher's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was a critical and financial success, Sony were going to reboot the franchise with a new actress (possibly Alicia Vikander) rather than continue with a sequel. But it looks like Rooney Mara did not get that memo.

Mara - who earned an Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Lisbeth Salander - was speaking to E! Online ahead of the release of her upcoming romantic drama Carol, and by all accounts the actress is determined to play the resourceful hacker again: "As far as I know I’m doing it until someone tells me otherwise. I’m doing it unless someone tells me that I’m not, and then I still might do it".
