Daniel Craig & Rooney Mara Premiere 'Dragon Tattoo' in NYC

Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara walk the red carpet at The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo premiere on Wednesday (December 14) held at the Ziegfeld Theatre in NYC.

Earlier in the evening, the 26-year-old actress stopped by The Ed Sullivan Theater to tape an appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman.

“Before I had my first audition, I hadn’t even read the books yet. I wasn’t crazy obsessed yet but after I got that call [from director David Fincher] I started to get really excited and I knew I had a really good chance at it,” Rooney recently told NPR.

“So I went and read all three books and I became obsessed with the character and I couldn’t imagine my life without playing her,” she added.

FYI: Rooney is wearing a Prabal Gurung dress with Christian Louboutin heels and a Fred Leighton ring. On The Late Show, she wore a YSL coat with AllSaints “Damisi” boots.
