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.
准备转在线，就不下载先（2）。又加两部莱斯利·曼恩，起码六部。新冠隔离的苦。美国人拍抖音有趣。分三段。凯伦·吉兰脸皮肤也好。有我喜欢的无厘头，包括故意而为之的演技，有搞笑，后面有点随意和乱，打耳光和两场打戏都好笑。贾德·阿帕图一家人拍电影。
前面的追逐戏真是好啊。。蜘蛛侠出久... 拯救世界的英雄居然没有一点奖励。。。。
好多大腕客串啊！再次印证这个电影就是瞎jb拍，不过无所谓啦。不过都cue到提莫西奥利芬特了，就请他出场啊！！！！求求了！！！难道是没请到吗！！说明奥利芬特是一个正经演员...（何
【C+】动作场面依旧很强，有几处运镜也是相当厉害，在新角色的刻画上做得还不错，但除此之外也就没有什么可夸的了。
不错的电影。但可能不适合幽闭恐惧症患者观看。。
看的好捉急，木门一脚踹不开吗？给懂事的小朋友多一星
I'm here for the horny Pedro part… anyone?
腳本比前2部劇場版都還用心，可惜此次一對一的分開戰鬥，很大程度上削弱了燃的感覺，前2部劇場版能如此成功，便是都端出了2打一的組合戰，爽到炸裂，燃到天際。《世界英雄任務》是公路片與諜報片的混搭，很大程度上借鏡了美國隊長2，讓主角被通緝，與新朋友踏上亡命公路之旅，整部片最好的作畫場面是街道巷弄中的追逐戰，綠谷的黑鞭新能力在逃亡中蕩來蕩去，像極了蜘蛛人（剛好他也要逃命了🤣），此次把背景設在異國，吉澤亮配音的新角色艾迪不是配角，反而是主角般的存在，凡人之軀比肩英雄，便是該角所營造出的價值觀。AB班同學這次都打了醬油，此次任務分隊的安排，很大程度上也削弱了學生們的戲份，即便如此，該爽的時候還是會爽，該燃的時候還是會燃，骨頭社到第3部了依舊是很棒，但是下一部能回歸二打一的組合戰嗎？這樣才能燃到天際阿！
不知道是什么促使我看完了这部电影，可能因为网飞。一部最不像网飞的网飞大电影
奉劝各位如果不是在家无聊发疯 千万不要打开这部电影
反人类的漫画家，全人类的公敌，不知悔改，去死吧。
对于疫情的黑色幽默也只在开场半小时，后面基本和疫情没什么关联，更多的是对当下好莱坞的讽刺罢了。
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，解压目的达成，异常的可，笑点all get，阿帕图再来个续集接着套娃呗！
真的很尬 既不黑色幽默也不屎尿屁搞笑 从头到尾不知道在干嘛 一美为啥要客串这种片啊 看到才反应过来星云这身眼熟的原因是因为跟勇敢者游戏没差 说真的吐槽这类型的片子不请巨石强森真是一大遗憾

作为两个孩子的妈 看的角度是 人渣必须斩草除根 才能保护好自己和孩子们
囚禁反杀反毒宗教隐喻片。一个母亲被渣男老公关进密闭空间，逃出密闭空间，战胜渣男老公和同伙，最后救赎自己，理解家人，重获新生的故事。 女主应该是丈夫一起在一个地...
推轮椅那段真的是笑死我了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
三演员带两孩子，拍成这样不算难看。而且要素多，囚禁、逃生、家庭、温情等等，麻雀虽小五脏俱全。属于小微成本电影里比较成功的。
