Janet McTeer and Ciaran Hinds Join Daniel Radcliffe in The Woman in Black

Tony winner Janet McTeer and Ciaran Hinds will star alongside the previously announced Daniel Radcliffe in the forthcoming film thriller The Woman in Black, according to Deadline.com. Radcliffe will play Arthur Kipps, a young lawyer who travels to a remote part of England to settle a dead woman’s affairs and encounters a mysterious woman in black who haunts the town. Hinds will play a local resident who counsels Kipps, and McTeer will play his wife. Based on the gothic novel, The Woman in Black has been adapted by Jane Goldman (Kick-Ass) and will be directed by James Watkins (Eden Lake).

McTeer most recently appeared on Broadway in God of Carnage. She won a Tony Award for the Broadway revival of A Doll's House and was nominated for a Tony for playing the title role in Mary Stuart. On television, McTeer received an Emmy nomination for her performance as Clementine Churchill in the HBO movie Into the Storm. Hinds is a stage and screen actor who has appeared on Broadway in Closer and The Seafarer.

The Woman in Black will be a screen reunion for Hinds and Radcliffe, who appeared together in the latest installment the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Hinds joined the cast as Aberforth Dumbledore.

Filming is scheduled to begin on September 26, according to production company Hammer Films’ twitter. The film was originally reported to be produced in 3D, but Variety reports that those plans have been put on hold. Radcliffe is headed to Broadway in the spring of 2011 in How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying.
