(from Sky's press release, September 2026) Sky today announces that Golden Globe and Emmy-nominated David Oyelowo (Silo, Selma) and rising star Viola Prettejohn (The Crown, The Testament of Ann Lee) will lead The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the highly anticipated Sky Original series based on Stieg Larsson's globally bestselling Millennium novels. Oyelowo will star as journalist Mikael Blomkvist alongside Prettejohn as Lisbeth Salander, bringing the iconic characters to life for a new generation. Produced by Left Bank Pictures (The Crown, Dept Q), the eight-part mystery thriller is a timely evolution of one of the world's most celebrated literary thriller franchises, with the Millennium novels having sold more than 100 million copies worldwide. Bringing the story into the present day, the series retains the characters, gripping mystery and investigative DNA of Larsson's novels, while exploring how power, secrecy and misogyny take on new and insidious forms in an ever more connected digital world.
