Milfy Brit Joely Richardson is set to star in director David Fincher’s American film adaptation of late Swedish author Stieg Larsson’s bestselling novel “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.” She joins a cast that includes Daniel Craig (Casino Royal) as journalist Mikael Blomkvist and Rooney Mara (A Nightmare on Elm Street) as disturbed hacker-punk Lisbeth Salander.

No word yet on what role Richardson will play. The 45-year-old looker made her name in the States as icy matriarch Julia McNamara on the outrageous F/X series “Nip/Tuck.” Her horror creds include 1996’s Loch Ness, the made-for-TV thriller Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America, and director Paul W.S. Anderson’s classic sci-fi thriller Event Horizon.

If you can’t wait to see Fincher’s film and have lost your library card, you can catch the Swedish film adaptations of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played with Fire now. The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest is slated for limited theatrical release in the U.S. on Oct. 29.
