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.
很多年没看过那么漂亮精致的女主了 德国很少有那么柔软的女子 作为反派BOSS 心狠手辣 蛇蝎心肠 为了女主颜值 三星奉上
本来有一个挺好的末世的大背景和冰上战斗的少见的设定，结果越到结尾越开始崩，演员表演也没把最后张力体现出来
故事很简单，黑科技技术宅遭遇仙人跳，当然正义终究会战胜邪恶。不过有几点还是很有现实意义，一是再顶尖的科技也不能放范人性的罪恶，曾经能保护你那万无一失的科技手段一旦落入敌手，你就只能成为待宰羔羊；二是任何突如其来的美丽诱惑可能都是置你于死地的凶器，人在江湖飘，注意不挨刀；三是做任何事情还是要留有后手，鸡蛋放一个蓝子损失巨大。演员阵容算是强大，可惜故事相对比较小格局，情节的走向也比较明显，没有太多的惊喜，反派女面容身材实在太好，这样的仙人跳估计没几个人能抗住，穷人还是好，永远没有这样的担忧。
这电影的气质倒是莫名很像那个古早FPS Iron Storm 穿越阴冷的敌占区，生与死模糊的界限，阴郁的天空，壕堑里雪白的实验室
她没必要在还没完全掌控局面的情况下先杀了她继父的……
各种元素 一盘散沙 再浅陋的主题也是必不可少的
故事很简单，结局很团圆，女主身材一级棒，其他没了。
不要和陌生人说话，科技以人为本。
基地之前一段从画面到悲情的把控都非常赞～冰海上凝聚了大自然和战争的双重残酷，而之后夺回病毒一段有些草率脱节，但终章的自曝让故事又重新拔高。心疼女主遍体鳞伤的挣扎，最终却是所有希望的破灭。
当评分 低于6真的是烂片，浪费了一个下午看这个破片！
另外看到抗议人群在街头拿小锤砸砖块，莫名想笑，这块头子的，太熟悉了。
故事类似危情十日，但是拍摄技巧远远达不到水平，但是女主好看呀，女主身材好呀，90分钟看女主也够了！
攻防还得靠纤细小仙女👩🏻👱🏻♀️
山上风景真好，房子很向往，女主好漂亮但人设是真恐怖，bug很多但是也看完了，就还行吧
Cameron Monaghan从Shameless起一路帅到如今。
最后应该给特写，这很像气氛建立一半突然不玩了。
正在和老婆协议离婚的退休在山庄的年轻富豪，自以为遇到了真命天女，殊不知一步步陷入设置好的陷阱之中，几近失去所有的财富和性命之际，妻女的出现，使情况出现了更为复杂的变化。在千钧一发之际，竟然是五六岁的女儿开枪杀死女罪犯！有几个蠢点大牙的槽点，但不失为一部吸引人的惊悚片。
整部电影就跟名字一样，支离破碎！难看难看太难看了！卡梅隆再胖下去你就只能演这种角色了，好嘛！
无聊的故事+主题，无聊到这么完整、演员演得这么卖力，令观众动容。
前面的设定还有点意思
