Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.
Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.
Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters.
"Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."
The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.
Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk.
"Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."
Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.
The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
看到c8组的技能设定被吃了是真的难受，， ，
一部假借似曾相识的历史，来讲述政治中的理想主义和现实主义。
3.5星。全程问号脸看完，但最后竟还有些感动上头？！
比上一部号称50周年纪念的电影好看一点，起码没犯困
当他走向迎面而来的人群，影子淹没于黑暗，这一刻，我还是有点感伤
无敌爹惨遭“吃瘪”，约定超人不愧是你，维斯说背弃约定的时候我以为您要开远古龙打他🤧伦太郎你行不行啊！怎么还能告白啊！
年轻人炙热的感情和侵入。哇！如此相似的故事，真的很有趣很可爱。无论结局如何，这是如此美好的夏天啊！
光冲结尾五十年历代骑士的群像就难以打得下去低分。尽管还没看过昭和骑士，但自空我开始，一位位曾带给我感动的骑士身形的出现，心中就止不住的泛起感怀。
这他妈居然是那个谁拍谁死的周年纪念电影？拍得比想象中的好太多了。
在韩国一众政治斗争片子里算不上突出，唯一比较新鲜的地方是主角变成了政客背后的谋士，但几次弄权案例还不到让人拍案叫绝的地步，只是记住了光线越亮影子越暗的比喻，基本也就是影片想塑造的人物形象与心理矛盾，最后的猜忌与分裂也是必然的，李善均和薛景求的演技演这个还是游刃有余的。
她是真飘浮生活之上的人 结尾那番剖析的话讲的太好了
在本片拍摄的过程中，饰演假面
导演水平其实挺一般的，作为学院派，稍微匠气了些，人物塑造上真实感不够，盘算和心机没有体现，每一个都好像是机器人一样的顺理成章。但是摄影美术和配乐属于上乘，剧本也很好玩，略微地检讨了一下“选举制度”背后的肮脏，当然，真实的选举更加卑鄙无耻。对于喜欢电影的，这部电影非常值得看。爆米花观众可以不看，娱乐性不够。
法版《亨利和琼》 导演给女主起名阿娜伊斯 一定是因为亨利米勒hh ps:古典乐 夏天 还有奔跑 很适配
节奏流畅，完成度较高。
少有的出现了早期修卡战斗员造型
关于这个鼻祖级的特摄片 我可以说 这个还和奥特曼不一样 没有看过的人啊 尽管可以想象此片的粗糙和幼稚 但我想说 无论配乐 手法 题材 社会影响和 文化 这都当之无愧一流文化水平 日本战后生活水平状态 娱乐 科普 等等都包含其中 铃木摩托 昆虫热爱 人造人间改造 恐怖主义 科幻 忍者 新能源 高校 全都有
CnM，김대중！你他妈把多少人的生活！！！都他妈毁了！！！（설경구xi和창대在各个宇宙里纠缠的一生😯
附身皮套那段很随便，可以说是毫无诚意可言，甚至对面的皮套打手都显得更有灵魂
与《超级英雄战记》同为来打50周年纪念作品，两者的核心基本延续过往思路，《战纪》是来打战队皮套大战，这部是新老骑士联动顺便与昭和原点联系一下。话说这是毛利第几次写时间穿越的剧本了......还有想吐槽一下南（北）极基地那个绿幕抠像痕迹太明显了......
