Having fun: The Swedish star seemed to be in good spirits as she worked
Speaking to The Guardian, the Swedish star admitted the 2009 film and its sequels had a lasting impact over the next decade.
Noomi starred in Swedish-produced film adaptations of Larsson’s books, earning her a string of major award nominations and a new international career.
She went on to star in major films, including her first English-speaking role in Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows (2011) and Ridley Scott’s blockbuster Prometheus (2012).

Wow! Noomi wore her raven braids in a sleek bun
Reflecting on this stage of her career, Noomi tells The Guardian that playing Lisbeth Salander gave her “an identity” that she struggled to shed.
“I don’t want to be the bada**,” she explained. “I even hate the word. People always throw things at me, “She’s so bada**, she’s so you.” I’m like … ‘ [putting her head in her hands].
“Making these films was like drowning in trauma. It meant that the first connective tissue between me and the world was pain for many years.
“Pain and sadness were like my identity card. Now I have healed a lot. Maybe I’m not clearer but I would say I allow more colors into me. I feel looser. The varnish, the shield I had built since childhood, is slowly peeling off. I am alive now rather than surviving.
The interview sees the actress reminiscing about instances of her own “dumb and nerdy” personality, telling the publication about the time she took co-workers to a cross-dressing party.
“I put them in wigs and long dresses, and I was a full man. I wore this dildo, this big strap-on, and walked like a man all night. I liked it!’
