Sexiness
Unlike the asocial cyberpunk she’s been enlisted to portray in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Rooney Mara’s features are delicate and classic. Let’s face it, the girl has movie-star-in-the-making written all over her. Though her love life has yet to be scrutinized by the gossip-hungry vultures at TMZ and beyond (trust us, we checked), her incoming superstardom should make her and her future lovers staples of celebrity glossies for years to come.
Success
It may seem that Rooney Mara was plucked out of obscurity to play the role of a lifetime -- Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo -- but trust us, girl paid her dues. After five years in show business, plying her trade with forgettable roles in shows like Law And Order: Special Victims Unit and ER, Mara finally made her mark with a supporting role in Youth in Revolt and the lead in the A Nightmare on Elm Street reboot.
However, it was her performance in David Fincher’s upcoming Facebook Saga The Social Network that turned her on to the cinematic maestro, and forced him to cast her in his adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s international best-seller The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Mara has also signed on to appear in the next two films of Larsson’s Millenium trilogy, so look for the future movie star to be a ubiquitous presence at the multiplex for a very long time. (askmen)
