Sky has ordered a new adaptation of Stieg Larsson bestseller The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo from Left Bank Pictures.
The eight-part original is billed as a “bold and contemporary reimagining” that brings The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo into the present, “grounded in the characters and investigative DNA of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium novels, with themes that carry heightened relevance today.”
Production will commence in Spring 2026 in Lithuania.
Steve Lightfoot (The Punisher, Behind Her Eyes, Spider-Noir) and Angela LaManna (The Haunting Of Bly Manor, Behind Her Eyes) will write and executive produce the series. Executive producers also include Andy Harries, Charlotte Moore and John Phillips for Left Bank Pictures, and Sam Hoyle for Sky.
The series will be available on Sky in the UK, Ireland, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. Sony Pictures Television will handle international distribution with pre-sale efforts already underway in the United States. Sony Pictures Entertainment previously brought Larsson’s work to the big screen with the 2011 film of the same name, directed by David Fincher and starring Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander, and the 2018 sequel The Girl in the Spider’s Web, directed by Fede Álvarez.
