Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight is currently writing the script, and he told Collider: ” With The Girl in the Spider’s Web, the girl [Lisbeth Salander] is really the central character.
Recently sneaking under the doorframe was the news that a sequel was on the way but instead of going in sequence (The Girl who Played with Fire), the project will be an adaptation of fourth novel in the Millennium series, The Girl in the Spider’s Web, which was released September 2015.
The writer’s BBC Two period drama Peaky Blinders has been confirmed to return for a fourth and fifth season with star Cillian Murphy.
It’s been five years since David Fincher’s adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and word on a follow-up has been relatively quiet ever since.
