The revamped legendary British production label Hammer, Alliance Films and Cross Creek Pictures are to team up with novelist Susan Hill on the proposed story that will pick the tale up 40 years on.

The Woman in Black, directed by James Watkins has become the highest grossing British horror film of the past 20 years, grossing over $33 million in the UK. and recently crossing the $120 million box office mark worldwide. Hammer president and CEO and vice-chairman of Hammer parent company Exclusive Media Simon Oakes, Exclusive co-chairmen Guy East and Nigel Sinclair said Hammer and Talisman are teaming on the development of the follow-up.

The Woman in Black was set in the early 1900s and detailed the story of a young lawyer who is ordered to travel to a remote corner of the UK to sort out the papers of a recently deceased client. In the eerie setting of Eel Marsh House he discovers the vengeful ghost of the title.

The next instalment, will pick the story up four decades later and focus on the concept of a couple and the experience they have when they encounter the haunted setting of Eel Marsh House. It will be produced by Exclusive Media, Talisman, Cross Creek Pictures and Alliance Films, in addition to Roy Lee of Vertigo Entertainment, who will serve as executive producer.

Oakes said: “We are proud and honoured to be working with Susan again on The Woman in Black: Angels Of Death, a wonderful new tale every bit as atmospheric and terrifying as its predecessor The Woman in Black.”

The mission of the Golden Hat Foundation is the establishment of innovative campuses that offer people with autism the opportunity to learn to communicate, receive an education, job training and enjoy recreational activities, all within a supportive social network. When given a suitable education and the means to communicate effectively, people with autism can truly realize their dreams.

The book is called The Golden Hat: Talking Back To Autism and Daniel is also featured in it.

Description: Imagine what it would be like not to be able to communicate with those we love. For many individuals living with nonverbal autism and their families, this is their everyday reality. The Golden Hat is an intimate response to this reality created by Kate Winslet, Margret Ericsdottir, and her son Keli, who has nonverbal autism.

Kate and Margret's stories, their personal email correspondence, and Keli's poetry give us a profound insight into the world of those living with autism. Kate has shared this story with some of the world's most famous people, posing the question: "What is important to you to express?" Their responses are a collection of intimate self-portraits and unique quotes. All the author proceeds from this groundbreaking book will benefit the Golden Hat Foundation.

Evanna Lynch, David yates, Bonnie Wright, Jamie Campbell Bower, Gary Oldman, and Helena Bonham Carter & Matthew Lewis did attend the event. Daniel couldn't be there because of filming Kill Your Darlings, but see his video message below. Here's another part of what he said:

"I'd like to thank the Empire readers for voting for us. I've always been quite a harsh judge of the series, but I was over the moon with this final film; I think we went out on a high note."

Today (26th March 2012) I received Dan's latest fan mail picture which he sends out to everyone who contacts him via his fan mail address. You can see this great photo by Warwick Saint (2011) below. And that when I expected he still would be sending out this one (not a picture by me) which also is an amazing picture..
