At long last we have our first look at Hammer Films’ The Woman in Black in the form of a teaser trailer that was revealed during this weekend’s Kapow! Comic Con in London. In addition comes word of a slight change in the film’s UK release date.

IGN nabbed the exclusive online debut of the teaser, which you can see below. Per the Facebook page of The Woman in Black, the UK release date has been pushed back a bit from the originally announced October 28, 2011, to February 10, 2012. Still no word on a US release date yet, but as soon as we know, you’ll know.

Joining star Daniel Radcliffe are 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 with a screenplay by Jane Goldman.

The Woman in Black follows a young lawyer, Arthur Kipps (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.
