Even though it's an enormous Hollywood blockbuster based on a bestselling book, most of the pre-publicity chatter around 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' has centered on Rooney Mara and her piercings.

As we now know, the fearless actress had a variety of body parts impaled for the film, including her nipple.

"I'm probably going to take out my piercings! But I might keep a few of them, I don't know…"

Meanwhile Craig, happy to be off 'Bond' duty, said it was seeing the book constantly in airports that made him take the role.
