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.
只觉得Billie Eilish太受宠了，整个乐团给她当陪衬还在那么豪华的演奏厅里。
3. 我希望这部电影能有奇异博士自己的故事，而不是整几个僵尸造型就是“黑暗”。这个系列电影院看确实很爽，但是自从复仇者4完结以后，简单的打架爽显然已经不能满足观众阀值。
温子仁又回到了得心应手的领域，故事的反转想必很多人猜到了，但它依然是个很绝的点子，这概念这气质这音乐，仿佛电锯惊魂和死寂路子的延续。温子仁善于在恐怖片里结合不同类型元素，让吓人的段落不落俗套，于是就看到了隔空有眼，猛鬼跑酷，猛鬼疾速追杀，这种酣虐的段落。其实脑内的段落还可以再玩转一番。按照温子仁的标准，这个故事的主题和寓意有些流于表面了，但按照一般恐怖片的要求，温子仁还是可以傲视的。
温子仁这次选的方向。。。不是纯灵异了。。如果不是纯灵异呢。。。这个就有太多东西经不起推敲了。。电影好的地方自然也有。构图摄影一脉相承的温子仁风格。很棒
虽然不是碧梨粉丝，但是很喜欢这种半记传类的风格。
也许曾听过，并没留意
对于恐怖片来说，还不错了，不是单纯的扮鬼吓人那种
一颗星给x战警版权 一颗星给旺达美如画 一颗星给炫彩特效😥
旺达想老公了，有了一部《旺达幻视》。旺达想儿子了，就有了这部电影。
多加一星吧，主要是太久没有这种观影体验了，气氛营造的不错。结尾有点小做作。
温子仁拒绝炒冷饭，从密室逃生，到凶宅闹鬼，再到身体恐怖。熟悉的场面调度，炫酷的上帝俯视，搞怪的插科打诨，刺激的近身搏杀，让人欲罢不能。但，这么一通打打杀杀，恶魔依然毫发无伤，而且还能操纵电子设备？这些让我接受不了，期待第二部给个解释……
令人做呕绿茶婊，别人不歧视我，但我可以歧视别人
就是一个加了一些特效的现场电影。单从现场来说还是值得一看的，LA最好的场地之一，班底是LA Phil，高规格舞美，剪辑上也还是有些意思。已经成功到只是第二张专辑就已经具备浓浓的个人传记感了么……
太棒了!!!
你以为这是鬼片，是人格分裂？
很喜欢旺达，但这部拍得确实是配不上她...不过按道理说这是史传奇的主场，感觉漫威没怎么意识到这个问题。
总觉得《分裂》也好，《24个比利》的多重人格也好，《惊魂记》的双重人格也好，这种被触发的人格分裂是被迷乱了的腐朽意志，既然道不明这种虚假空壳，恶性肿瘤就是搭载邪恶意志的最佳存在方式。所以这一次，用生物本体与生物异质去践行还原主义，所以这一次大道至简，没有迂回曲折的蒙太奇和结构复杂的架空观，纯真回溯到铅黄时代，还杂糅了科幻的前奏与悬疑的节奏。如果说之前看温导是想求得精神的折磨和智性的折磨，那这次单刀直入式铺陈开来，这是导演控场功力的完胜绝杀，并且切切实实被卷进最后30分钟极其逻辑自洽的一反转再反转，脑洞合理到大呼过瘾！！！温子仁是个神人！！！
建议看完整版，四星没有太大问题，希望温导还是多执导少营销。。
但也有几首听起来既视感特别震撼的 很不寻常
和我同岁
