The Girl in the Spider's Web is a 2018 action thriller film[7][8] directed by Fede Álvarez, who co-wrote the screenplay with Jay Basu and Steven Knight, based on the 2015 novel of the same name by David Lagercrantz, which in turn was based on characters introduced in the Millennium book series by Stieg Larsson. The film acts as a soft reboot and sequel to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011). It stars Claire Foy in the role of Lisbeth Salander, and follows Salander as she battles against a mysterious notorious organization, the Spiders, who seek world dominance. Sverrir Gudnason, Lakeith Stanfield, Sylvia Hoeks, and Stephen Merchant appear in supporting roles.
The Girl in the Spider's Web had its premiere at the Rome Film Festival on October 24, 2018, and was released in Sweden on October 26, and in the United States on November 9, by Sony Pictures Releasing. A box-office disappointment, the film grossed only $35.2 million worldwide against a production budget of $43 million and received generally negative reviews from critics, although Foy's performance was praised.
