All You Need To Know About The Woman In Black

"The Woman in Black" is a 2012 gothic horror film directed by James Watkins, based on Susan Hill's novel of the same name. Starring Daniel Radcliffe, the movie follows a young lawyer investigating a vengeful ghost terrorizing a remote English village. Produced by Hammer Film Productions, Alliance Films, and others, it faced controversy over its rating despite positive reviews. Premiering in London, the film grossed $130 million worldwide and led to a sequel, "The Woman in Black: Angel of Death," released in 2015.

Development for the film began in 2009 with Jane Goldman as the screenwriter and later James Watkins as the director. Daniel Radcliffe was cast as Arthur Kipps in July 2010, joined by Ciarán Hinds and Janet McTeer shortly after. Radcliffe sought psychological guidance to delve into his character, while the role of Joseph Kipps was portrayed by Misha Handley, Radcliffe's real-life godson. Filming started on September 26, 2010, initially in 3D but later abandoned, wrapping up on December 4, 2010, across various locations in England. Post-production ran until June 2011, with adjustments made to secure a 12A rating in the UK, although this stirred controversy. A 2014 cinematic re-release received a higher 15 rating. The film's original score by Marco Beltrami, released in March 2012 by Silva Screen Records, was well-received.

The Woman In Black Facts: 10 Things You Didn’t Know

In 2012, Daniel Radcliffe transitioned from the world of wizardry (though not from the realm of the supernatural) to take on his first film role post-Harry Potter. The Woman in Black, directed by James Watkins and adapted from Susan Hill's novel of the same name, debuted in the UK to generally positive reviews. Here are 10 fun facts about this contemporary Hammer Horror production that you might not be aware of:

1. Mark Gatiss was first choice to write The Woman in Black. Many horror fans find it intriguing that Jane Goldman wrote the screenplay, as she is more known for her work in action rather than horror. With films like Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class in her repertoire, Goldman has ventured only minimally into the horror genre.

2. The Woman in Black has been a stage play for 25 years. Recently, The Woman in Black celebrated its 25th anniversary on London’s West End. Adapted for the stage before its cinematic release, the play still tours the UK regularly. Many horror fans argue that the theatrical production offers a more intense and frightening experience than the movie adaptation.

3. The Woman in Black shares a creepy link with Saw. The laughter heard from the doll is identical to the sound produced by Bill the Puppet in the Saw franchise.
