- Based on a novel by David Lagercrantz, the writer hired by Larsson’s family to create new stories, the film takes place three years after the events of “Dragon Tattoo” and finds Lisbeth (now played by Claire Foy) working as a sort of avenging angel for abused women everywhere—she is introduced to us as she ties up a slick businessman with a penchant for beating women and transfers his bank account holdings to the wife he has just smacked around, before applying a Taser to his genitals.

Nov 9, 2018 · “The Girl in the Spider’s Web” is essentially the cinematic equivalent of a clip-on version of the nose ring that its central character famously sports throughout—a simulacrum that tries to evoke the edge and danger of the real thing without betraying even the slightest amount of genuine commitment.

This isn’t a joke: the Spider Society (shortened to “Spiders” for the movie) is led by a hacker named after Marvel Comic’s mad titan. “Thanos” is actually Camilla Salander (more on her later), and she uses this alias to command the Russian crime syndicate from the shadows. Similarly, Lisbeth goes by the hacker name “Wasp,” in reference to Janet van...
In both movie and book, the magazine Millennium is in a slump after The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest. For the movie, this is an unstoppable downturn as social media changes journalism forever. The movie ends uncharacteristically and cynically, with Mikael accepting this fate, deleting his would-be piece, and choosing to go with the flow. The b...
The Girl in the Spider’s Web feels more like a James Bond knock-off than a Millennium movie. At its center is the National Security Agency (NSA)-made Firefall, a program that grants users control of all nuclear weapons. The twist is that the Swedish Security Service (SAPO) is working with the Spiders to get its access codes from Frans, its creator....
In both incarnations, everyone has their sights trained on Frans. Though he dies early, the truth is locked away in his son’s mind. In the movie, August has Firefall’s passwords committed to memory through riddles, which his father taught as a failsafe in the event of his death. In the book, August is an autistic-savant child who doesn’t have passw...
The Girl in the Spider’s Web reveals that Lisbeth actually has a sister, Camilla, who she wishes is dead. This isn’t because of hatred, but immense guilt for not being able to save Camilla from their abusive father. Camilla is alive and very spiteful of Lisbeth, though, feeling abandoned and betrayed. Camilla’s implied suicide at the end comes off ...
The movie kicks off when the Spiders blow up Lisbeth’s secret lair and her barely escaping arrest. With nowhere left to go, she turns to her former ally and fling Mikael, though she looks like she’d have rather picked any other alternative. Meanwhile, in the book, it’s Mikael who looks to Lisbeth for help. At first, Frans turns to Mikael before he’...
A major point in the movie is how Lisabeth transformed herself into a vigilante who saves abused women by targeting the monstrous men at fault. This isn’t just a career change but something that bites Lisbeth back later, since Camillia is bitter about how the “savior of women” never saved her.

At its heart, The Girl in the Spider’s Web is a whodunit movie, with Lisbeth framed for a murder connected to a grander conspiracy. She spends the movie unraveling the truth while clearing her name. Meanwhile, the book tells an entirely different story. The book is a conspiracy thriller, with Mikael and Lisbeth unearthing interagency corruption. In...
The Girl in the Spider’s Web could be seen as the end of the cinematic Millennium saga, as it closes with Lisbeth and Mikael going their separate ways after one last ride. Not only that, but they part on shaky terms at best, since Lisbeth is still pissed at Mikael for publishing her entire history for “clout” – despite agreeing to let the journalis...
The wide age gap between Lisbeth and Mikael has always been a constant in the Millennium stories, with Lisbeth being somewhere in her 20s and Mikael being a middle-aged divorced man. This unconventional romance (especially in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo; above) doesn’t just add to the series’ overall subversive energy, but it also emphasizes th...
Jul 23, 2015 · Lagercrantz said when Spider's Web was announced that he has stayed true to Larsson's writing style and has made use of the "vast mythology he left behind".
