At the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala on Saturday, Rooney Mara showed off her Lisbeth Salander look while accepting the award for Best Ensemble Performance with her Social Network costars.

Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor and collaborator Atticus Ross will once again be teaming up with David Fincher as they go from composing the Golden Globe-nominated music for the director's Social Network to working on the soundtrack for his Tattoo adaptation.

Yep. Dec. 21, Tattoo's scheduled release date, can't come soon enough.
