The approximately $100-million production is being shot in Sweden, directed by David Fincher and starring Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara. It will hit theaters Dec. 21.
Sony and MGM's co-financing arrangement on "Tattoo," announced Tuesday, falls under a larger funding partnership the two studios struck in April centered on MGM's next two James Bond films. At the time, the studios said they would work together on other movies over the next five years.
MGM is likely to co-finance Sony's next two planned "Dragon Tattoo" films, based on a trilogy of bestselling books by?Stieg Larsson,?though no formal deals have been reached, according to a person close to the matter.
As with the Bond movies, Sony will market and?distribute?"The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" around the world. MGM will get television licensing rights in certain foreign countries.
