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.
很明显上部赚了，特效升级不少，情节有点低龄，作为娱乐片还是能看的~
一旦习惯了忽视爆米花电影的槽点，每一分钟都可以是纯粹的享受。
一部比较不错的娱乐电影。
金凱瑞比索尼克可愛，無人機現在是武器的最高形態了麽。
西游之吸星大法，西游之终极舔狗，西游之三生三世十里桃花…多一星给达叔~
剧组很穷，演员形象确实有点不太符合，特效也很差，不过整体来说剧情完成度还算挺高，预算再多点应该能拍得更好点。尤其还有达叔。
三小只在为更高，更快，更强代言吗😂弹头博士在拥有强大的能量后的创造力还是弱了点，就造了个看上去很弱鸡的战斗机器…第三部的伏笔有点没想明白
那个宝石的设定既像无限宝石，又像魔戒，最后的机器人反派还像反浩克装置。。。
这个彩蛋！是夏特要来了吗？！哈哈哈
比第一部强，起码没有那么低幼了，而且视效方面也大大加强。最终还是一个流水线化的探险+超级英雄电影。最后变身说明导演应该是《龙珠》的粉丝，只有超级赛亚人才能救地球。
这片儿吧，怎么说呢，以为又是烂片，结果看了之后发现有些地方做的还挺不错，部分情节还挺感人，特效还过得去，剧本也没有卖情怀。但是同时很多地方处理的比较粗糙，剧情推进也过快，片长60多分钟明显不够讲述整个故事性，导致有点赶进度，不知道是不是因为预算有限的原因。女主是个十八线小演员，不过演技不错，角色人设讨喜，长得也可爱漂亮，完全长在我的审美上，挺喜欢。期待续集
合家欢电影2.0，为了支持金凯瑞叔叔怎么说也要刷一遍。
比第一部更难看的程度，剧情很有年代感，基本上就是红绿灯大战蛋头机甲战士，外加爸爸妈妈一家亲
蘑菇星蛋头博士红针鼹，超级英雄工作，绿丘镇，沃卓斯基家，钓鱼，去夏威夷参加婚礼，蛋头博士攻击，双尾狐狸，逃，去寻宝（长爪藏宝图），西伯利亚酒馆斗舞，雪山无人机大战，婚礼，小岛神庙大战，绿宝石，博士升级，机械巨人。动画部分，和大场景好看，真人部分无聊且很省钱的样子。
预算多了不知该怎么花掉所以疯狂水时长，这种儿童片拍成90分钟不好吗？金凯瑞是唯一看点
索尼克的超能力时强时弱，太多冲突了。上一部还能一秒往返太平洋，第二部竟然连跑去小岛都做不到，甚至还能毫发无损的到达小岛。
小而精准的频繁击中大话西游影迷的心，在情怀之外剧情上也基本不掉链子不尬，还挺难得的
特效做的还不错，但用这样的特效做这样的电影感觉没什么必要。最后是超级赛亚人大战扎古吗。
