Patricia Rooney Mara is an American actress known for the intensity she brings to her roles. Born in 1985, she was initially known for being the younger sister of actress Creator/KateMara, but is on course to become one of Hollywood's go-to actresses (actually getting her big breakout before [[Series/HouseOfCardsUS her sister's]]). She is named after the last names of her paternal and maternal families; her great-grandfathers, Art Rooney Sr. and Tim Mara, founded the [[UsefulNotes/NationalFootballLeague Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Football Giants]], respectively. (Kate has the same surnames, [[DoNotCallMePaul but Rooney made sure to not even use her given one]])

Her first major starring role was as Nancy in ''Film/ANightmareOnElmStreet2010'' remake. She then got a small part as Mark Zuckerberg's ex-girlfriend in ''{{Film/The Social Network}}''. She had only two scenes in that movie, but had amazing chemistry and held her own with the leads. Apparently director {{Creator/David Fincher}} was also impressed, because he cast her in the coveted role of Lisbeth Salander in ''[[Literature/TheMillenniumTrilogy The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo]]''.

* DyeingForYourArt: For her role as [[Literature/TheMillenniumTrilogy Lisbeth]], she bleached her eyebrows, cut her hair short, and had her brow and ears pierced all in one day. Later she had pierced her nipple. More literally, her normally brown hair is dyed black for the role.
** And she even confessed to wearing a red merkin for the role, in reference to the fact that in the book, Lisbeth was a redhead with her hair dyed black. Talk about committed.

* OldShame: Already views ''A Nightmare on Elm Street'' as this. She also said some unflattering things about her appearance on ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', though she would later backtrack on them.

** Admittedly, ''she'' is the one who gave an intentionally bad performance in ''A Nightmare on Elm Street''. Kinda hard to sympathize with an OldShame when the actress is a big part of the reason it is one.
