"I hope that they make the second one. I’m just not sure when they’re going to. I mean, I hope they make it soon because I’m not getting any younger. The second one is very physical, so hopefully they’ll be making it sooner rather than later."
The next book in the series is set a year later. Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig) is approached by a young journalist couple with a meticulously researched thesis about Swedish sex trafficking ring involving high-ranking public and private figures. When both they and Lisbeth Salander's abusive former guardian is found murdered, Lisbeth is pegged as the prime suspect. The trail leads to a dark incident in Lisbeth's past and a mysterious figure known only as 'Zala' who is the key to everything.
Andrew Kevin Walker has agreed to work on Steven Zaillian's earlier drafts of the script for the film and his work is almost finished.
The catch is the short window of availability for star Craig.
The only time before 2015 that Craig would be available to film 'Played With Fire' would be early next year. But Tattoo helmer David Fincher will probably be well into post on "Gone Girl".
So it looks as though Fincher will no longer call action on 'Played With Fire'---Fincher has his pay or play deal meaning he gets a nice bonus anyway.
