By November 2015, it was announced that Sony was considering rebooting the franchise, before settling on continuing the film series with an adaptation of "The Girl in the Spider's Web". The story is based on a 2015 novel by David Lagercrantz that was a continuation of the original "Millennium" trilogy after series creator Stieg Larsson died in 2004.

He scrutinizes Salander's medical records, and thus identifies an incident named "All the Evil" as well as a person from her past as his strongest ally. In the meantime, Mikael Blomkvist, the publisher of "Millennium" magazine, has lost contact with Salander, who has refused even to open his letters.
