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.
说不公平的人是蠢吗？你美爹军事实力吊打全球，按你的逻辑，美国拍的战争片都是不公平的了？
好无聊，其实只看最后半小时就可以了，前面毫无相干的剧情。
老美哪部电影不战狼
勉强三星吧，还是看在拍摄地的面子上。其实开始的公路就眼熟，直到女主穿的衣服写着“위미리”三个字，才去查资料确定我的直觉。最后的决斗现场选在一处马场，有《乐园之夜》的感觉，一看导演，果真是一个人。再来看这部电影，节奏拖沓，演员演技尴尬，超能力超的尬死个人。最不能忍受的是演员们的英文、中文台词，非要语言多元才能显得高级吗？或许该去看看1，扭转一下最初的印象了。金多美还是很美的，短短的出场，已经盖过2的大多数人了。

那段劫人和米国勇者勇行动海豹差不多，只是坏人的枪一般都不准
真实事件改编sso vdv su-24也算大饱眼福了，结尾还有点感动，血脉延续。就是前戏太冗长……
感觉还是前面特种兵那一小段战斗戏出彩，其他的一般般，有点拖沓～～～
闹腾散乱的政宣电影。平行蒙太奇剪得很好，但是被土味俄苏流行歌曲破坏了氛围……我始终觉得pop以及节奏布鲁斯是最不适合拿来做bgm的曲风……
总感觉前面文戏有点长，但好像也都删不掉，sso的片段很精彩，空战有一点专业，但画面太拉胯
俄罗斯空战电影，很写实，看着有种内心的憋屈感，近些年确实被欧美压制的厉害，这也是当年的大新闻，但俄罗斯的“犯我必诛”确实很让人振奋。
从经济的角度来看，优待战俘也许可以瓦解敌方的战斗意志，但是复仇消灭却能从一开始让敌人忌惮成为你的敌人，减少敌人的战争图谋。
这电影网上看了看别人的几分钟讲解，大致也了解剧情和动作场面，动作场面实在是太夸张了，比超人更超人（超人和旺达都没她厉害），很多时候都是用“意念”在打斗，不得不说这个升级没法认同，加上口碑一般，看了讲解权当看过了。这部讲妹妹，第一部讲姐姐，第三部二姐妹去找妈妈了，希望导演对动作场面能够搞得不要太夸张了，还是得有些可以理解的逻辑。
表面上是扩大世界观，实际上只是资本增加后的劣拙自我重复。妄想用泛滥的CG充胖子，还不如回去好好写剧本。想再造一个魔女？也得先看看自己几斤几两吧，金多美可是打败了全钟瑞的怪物新人啊。以及，别再讲那蹩脚的中文了，你那么多血浆卖了也没法上映是吧，何必呢？

俄罗斯主旋律，最后的大规模出动，现实中不好实现。不过对土耳其没啥好印象这是真的
韩国超级英雄电影宇宙，这部飞天遁地时间控制都是小意思。胡乱拼凑的一部电影建议别看！
战熊的《壮志凌云》，武戏就不说了，绝对硬核。很多人说文戏弱，感觉并不弱，交错时空双线叙事交叉点赞！真实事件感人！有兴趣去了解下。
老毛子的主旋律，总是有着对解体前简单生活的怀念，对寡头的唾弃，但是现实还是残酷的
好无聊，其实只看最后半小时就可以了，前面毫无相干的剧情。
