Let He Who Is Without an Agent Cast the First Actor

I wrote last week about the subtitled Swedish film version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which just opened in New York. As sure as there’s a Scott Rudin in heaven, somebody is already casting the Hollywood version of this picture. But who could possibly be as good as Nooni Rapace was in the role of Lisbeth Salander? Or as fine as Michael Nyquist was at playing her supporter and lover, the journalist Mikael Blomkvist? Or as excellent as the great Swedish actor Sven-Bertil Taub, who portrays Heinrich Vanger, the man who gets this whole story rolling?

Well, here’s your chance to choose your favorite actors for the American version of Dragon Tattoo. Click the Comments tab at the end of this post to tell us who should star. How about Beyonce as Salander, Jeff Bridges as Blomkvist, and Kris Kristofferson as Vanger?
