Kristen Stewart and Emma Watson still think they can slug it out for the hottest part in Hollywood. Emma’s radical new haircut signals how keen she is.
The Twilight babe and Harry Potter girl want to be cast as Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, based on the Stieg Larsson novel.
James Bond star Daniel Craig is going to play journalist turned detective Mikael Blomkvist.
And rumours have been flying around about who his co-star is going to be.
It seemed certain a relative unknown was going to get the key part, but Emma’s haircut tells a different story and it’s still anyone’s game.
A movie insider told The Sun: "Emma has auditioned with director David Fincher and cut her hair to look the part.
"The character of Lisbeth is a misfit goth-type girl with spikey hair."
Other actresses linked to the part are Ellen Page, Natalie Portman, Carey Mulligan and, of course, Kristen Stewart.
