It is the film role that every actress wanted and has already earned her a Golden Globe nomination, but Rooney Mara admitted this morning that she hasn't seen her performance as Lisbeth Salander.
The 26-year-old actress admitted that she hasn't watched the movie yet in an interview on The Today programme in New York.
Resplendent in a cream outfit by London-based designer Roksanda Ilincic, Mara is still rocking Lisbeth's short black hair.

The Girl With the Audrey Hepburn Look: Rooney Mara appeared on The Today Show this morning, possibly via Breakfast at Tiffany's
The Social Network actress underwent a massive physical transformation to play Lisbeth in the film adaption of the hugely successful book by late Swedish author Steig Larsson, which co-stars Daniel Craig.
But despite attending three glamorous premieres around the world, Mara confesses she's yet to see what all the fuss is about.
Watching on Today, she said: 'I haven't (seen it yet). I've seen that scene quite a few times now. Usually you have more time when you finish a movie to see it. This all happened very fast.'

Unprepared: Rooney admitted that despite being on the promotional carousel, she hasn't seen the film yet
She added: 'I didn't want to watch it alone in a dark room, and I didn't want to watch it at the premiere where there was sort of a lot of pressure.
'I just want to see it with a real audience when it comes out.'
And the actress, who is the young sister of American Horror Story star Kate Mara, 28 , says she was in a daze when she heard about her Golden Globe nomination.
'We’d had three premieres in three countries, in three nights, so I was kind of half asleep,' Rooney said.

'I kind of forgot that that was happening, so I was very surprised.'
She added that she's already in the sequels, Larsson has two more books in the series, The Girl Who Played With Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest.
She said: 'I had read the books, and like the rest of the world, I’d fallen in love with the character.'
Transformation: Rooney went to great lengths to become Lisbeth, including getting piercings
