Rooney Mara: busy! The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo actress has added another new project to her pile, Ain’t Them Bodies Saints, where she’ll star opposite Casey Affleck and Ben Foster in a Bonnie-and-Clyde sort of story about a fugitive trying to reunite with his wife. Add that to the Spike Jonze and Nick Hornby movies that Mara lined up next week, and it’s clear that this is a victorious moment for women with severe bangs everywhere.
