Noomi Rapace -- who broke out in "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" and will next be seen in Warner Bros.' "Sherlock Holmes" sequel -- has been tapped to play Swedish pop star Anita Lindblom in "
Knockout," which Catherine Hardwicke will helm this fall.
Rapace's husband, Ola Rapace, will play Bosse Hogberg, a European boxing champ.
