Noomi Rapace, best known as Lisbeth Sander from the The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, worked on two high profile films this year: Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and director Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated sci-fi feature Prometheus.

“We all saw The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo at about the same time, and it was a sort of an unconscious collective agreement by the time we all got on the phone about Noomi,” says Game of Shadows director Guy Ritchie.  “After a very short meeting with Noomi, our desires were confirmed.  We pretty much wanted Noomi from the off.”

To play a gypsy in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, Rapace had to learn English for the role.  Click on the media bar and listen to the actress talk about her rather “intense year” -
