Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Noomi Rapace's final outing as Salander; she refused to return for the American remakes, saying she'd given 'everything' to the role.
The 'Section' storyline drew from real Swedish intelligence scandals, including the IB affair where secret agencies illegally surveilled citizens.
