Amazon is working on a new series based on Lisbeth Salander, the character that originated in Stieg Larsson's book The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. A report on Variety outlines plans for a new series on Amazon's streaming service, which will not be a direct adaptation or continuation of the previous books or films.

　　According to the report, the new series will feature a new setting, characters, and story, separate from those written by Stieg Larsson and David Lagercrantz (who has continued the book series, as Larsson died before the first three books were published). It's not clear whether the series' other main character, Mikael Blomkvist, will feature.
