Dan Radcliffe's reps just confirmed that he's set to star in the supernatural thriller, "The Woman in Black".
When a friendless old widow dies in the seaside town of Crythin, a young solicitor is sent by his firm to settle the estate. The lawyer finds the townspeople reluctant to talk about or go near the woman's dreary home and no one will explain or even acknowledge the menacing woman in black he keeps seeing. Ignoring the towns-people's cryptic warnings, he goes to the house where he discovers its horrible history and becomes ensnared in its even more horrible legacy.
Hammer Films is set to begin production on a 3D film adaption of the book this fall.
