Harvey Weinstein has revealed that one of his biggest regrets is that he did not buy the rights to the Hollywood version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.

Weinstein, who is the chairman of The Weinstein Company, spoke to Newsweek about the oversight, stating that it is his biggest mistake in business to date.

"Everything about it in my gut said, 'Do this'," Weinstein said. "But my team said 'No, we should focus on bigger movies'. I didn't listen to my very significant gut."

Weinstein continued: "That was a big bloody mistake."

The US version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is scheduled for release on December 21.
