I don’t think we’ve looked forward to a single ghost story more than we are for Hammer’s upcoming adaptation of the Susan Hill book The Woman in Black. The casting of Daniel Radcliffe boded extremely well as he truly is a perfect choice for the lead, and now the rest of the cast has officially filled out.

Joining Radcliffe will be Ciaran Hinds, Janet McTeer, Liz White, Alisa Khazanova, Tim McMullan, Roger Allam, Daniel Cerqueira, Shaun Dooley, Mary Stockley, Cathy Sara, David Burke, Victor McGuire, and Lucy May Barker.

James Watkins (Eden Lake) is at the directorial helm. The Woman in Black follows a young lawyer, Arthur Kipps (Daniel Radcliffe), who is ordered to travel to a remote corner of the UK and sort out a recently deceased client’s papers. As he works alone in an old and isolated house, Kipps begins to uncover its tragic secrets, and his unease grows when he discovers that the local village is held hostage by the ghost of a scorned woman set on vengeance.
