To celebrate the UK DVD and Blu-ray release on The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest on April 11th we managed yet again to get some interview time with the cast and crew of the film. This time round it’s the turn of Costume Designer Cilla Rorby.
1) How was it working with Daniel Alfredson and Jonas Frykberg? Obviously costume is incredibly important for Lisbeth, how does it evolve in 3 films?
Daniel is a nice and calm man. We were not so many in the team who made all 3 films.
I made costumes for all three films and the first one is the one that “set the style”. I had all three in my head to be able to do the first, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It was important for me to know the whole story even if I only had the script for the first one for a long time.

To celebrate the UK DVD and Blu-ray release of The Girl Who Played With Fire, we’ve managed to snag some interviews with the films cast & crew. Yesterday we brought you an interview with the films casting director Tusse Lande and now we an interview with the films star, Noomi Rapace…
What was it about the script that made you want to do the films?
Actually, I said yes before there was any script[s]. I read the books a couple of years before they even decided to do a film of it. So, when they asked me, I said yes right away.
When you read the books, did you ever imagine that you’d be Lisbeth?
Never – it was totally the opposite. I read in the paper that they were going to do a film of the first book and I was so upset because I was sure that they...

To celebrate the UK DVD and Blu-ray release on The Girl Who Played With Fire on January 10th we managed to get some interview time with the cast and crew of the film. First up, casting director Tusse Lande.
How was it working with Daniel Alfredson and Jonas Frykberg?
Daniel Alfredson and I have been friends since we did a feature all the way back in 2000 – he is great director with big knowledge on actors! He knows what he wants and that makes it really easy to communicate what exactly he is after – it’s a pleasure to work with people who have a clear vision from the start.
Although I know him well, and we get on, I’ve never had to deal with any of the writers like Jonas as our roles don’t require us to come together.
How did you know that Michael Nyqvist and Noomi Rapace...
