Veena Sud, showrunner for Amazon’s upcoming Girl with the Dragon Tattoo TV reboot, has a rather exciting update on the series.
“I have a classic television show coming out for Amazon, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, another angry woman out to get the bad guys and the monsters. So, I’m really excited about that, bringing it to television after 15–20 years,” Sud toldScreenRant. “It’s been kind of in the stratosphere, and there’s so much to talk about today that was relevant back then – when Stieg Larsson first published the books, the trilogy –about female rage, about abuse, about the emergence of racism, white nationalism. All of the things, 20 years later, here we are, it’s super relevant today. So far, just pursuing kind of outlier women has always been the thing I love, so I’m really excited about that.”
Sud is perhaps best known for creating the Netflix crime drama Seven Seconds, based on the Russian film The Major, and directing Blumhouse’s twisted thriller The Lie starring Joey King.
Continued Sud: “Well, it’s a little bit under wraps right now, so I can’t reveal too much other than to say, Welcome to female rage. It’s strong, it’s powerful, and it’s going to take some s–t down in the next few years. So, I’m excited that we get to see, again, a new version of a woman who just refuses to follow the rules.”
