Released in November 2018, Millenium: What Doesn't Kill Me(The Girl in the Spider's Web) is the fourth installment in the Millenium series, but the first to be adapted from the book by David Lagercrantz, who took over the saga after Stieg Larsson. Directed by Fede Alvarez, this thriller takes up the emblematic character of Lisbeth Salander, played here by Claire Foy, in a new investigation combining espionage, cybercrime and global stakes. With a storyline centered on dangerous software that can take control of nuclear weapons, the film is set in today's digital age. Available on Prime Video from October 1, 2024, it's a chance to immerse yourself in the dark and captivating world of Millenium.
The plot of Millenium: What Doesn't Kill Me begins when Frans Balder (Stephen Merchant), a leading artificial intelligence researcher, contacts Lisbeth Salander (Claire Foy) to help him retrieve a software program he has developed. This extremely dangerous program enables him to take control of the world's nuclear arsenals, and Balder wants to get it out of the hands of the NSA. However, a group of terrorists led by Jan Holster (Claes Bang) is also after the software, and the NSA isn't far behind.
In the midst of her hunt, Lisbeth finds herself exposed and in danger, hunted by both governmental and criminal forces. She must call on her friend and former collaborator, investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Sverrir Gudnason), whom she hasn't seen in three years. Together, they embark on a complex and perilous investigation, where issues of power, corruption and global threats intersect. As Lisbeth fights for her own survival and that of those around her, she uncovers buried personal secrets that will turn her perception of the world upside down.
Millenium: What Doesn't Kill Me will appeal not only to fans of the Millenium series, but also to those who enjoy espionage and cybercrime thrillers. This film will particularly appeal to those who enjoyed works such as Jason Bourne or Mr. Robot, where technology, hacking and global security issues play a central role.
The originality of this installment lies in its more global approach to the issues at stake, with a far-reaching technological plot, while exploring the trauma and resilience of Lisbeth Salander. Claire Foy, known for her role in The Crown, brings a new dimension to the character of Lisbeth, combining coldness, intelligence and vulnerability. The film is also distinguished by intense action scenes and constant suspense, particularly in the way Lisbeth uses her hacking skills to navigate a world where she is under constant threat.
Available on Prime Video from October 1, 2024, Millenium: What Doesn't Kill Me offers a suspenseful, action-packed new adventure in the world of Lisbeth Salander. Starring Claire Foy as the notorious hacker, this technological thriller deals with cyberthreats, espionage and betrayal, while delving deeper into the personal issues of its heroine. A must for fans of contemporary thrillers and the Millenium saga.
