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.
也没啥标签，露点还不是av，在豆瓣好像都挺有市场
看了30分钟，不想看了。画面太暗，前面叙事不清，到10分钟左右才大概弄清怎么回事，主要还是没吸引住后看，剧情估计还是八九不离十。就这样吧，缘尽于此。
前面铺垫那么长……我还以为后面有什么惊喜……而惊喜就是电影终于快结束了……
老王作为一个卧底，对着敌军点头哈腰的谄媚劲儿，和身份揭穿后的正气凌然对比太强烈了，也很解气，范伟老师的演技真没话说！
算是我小时候的童年了，剧情忘了很多，但是主题曲仍旧记忆犹新，电影里头有变奏好评。但是剧情太拖沓，除了范伟之外的人物太单一，这也是很多抗日剧的短板。现在拍类型的工业水平我们有了，但是剧本还是有待提高。
看看挤挤时间再去微山湖
宗教隐喻和恐怖以及性爱元素相结合
两星给范伟老师的两个镜头。一是出门传递情报，之后头也不回的扔手榴弹，爆炸后挑衅日本人的那个笑。二是五花大绑走上火车，在车厢里一步步走，车厢一步步退，光与影打在他脸上，从容赴死的表情。真是影帝级别的高光演技。另，最后张涵予点燃了绑在身上的炸药包，把帽子往下一拉罩住眼睛，天哪！我竟然在这么主旋律的电影中窥到了美式个人英雄主义的感觉，真是又装又硬但又帅。
护士笔墨太少，完全是打酱油的角色，番位诈骗。谭凯可惜了，他的角色明显比魏晨后面那个角色有意思，但没办法，没流量和背景嘛，同样类比华谊和博纳最近两部主旋律影片的市场反响对比，2021年了，你还拍抗日？它漂亮国大爹现在都得跪舔兔子！
前一个小时的铺垫，结果只是一场杀戮
我还以为那老爷子会在性爱过程中暴毙
开头10分钟太凌乱。
就比起老洪队长的正面，老王这个小人物的反转感觉更加有魅力，无论最开始的点头哈腰的狗腿子还是跟周政杰的父子情，还是最后英勇就义的正气高光
五星给英雄们，给范伟的演技。有信仰的风骨。
在美国宪法和法律中是不存在的，而一个神秘机构——国家计划办公室——每年都花费数百万美元时刻做着“延续政府”的准备。
1.好一幅可歌可泣的铁道群英谱，最惊喜的无疑是范伟饰演的老王头。2.节奏克制，铺垫绵长，直到最后一场终极对决，才把电影情绪推向高潮。3.镜头和美术设计一流，火车、风雪、烟雾、枪火等相互交织，形成独特的电影美学。
表面的一些工业化的东西让人看下去，内核里的东西让人看了跟没看一样。
大雪天的一片静谧肃杀，只有血的颜色是这么鲜红耀眼。在这一场艰苦漫长的战斗里，有这么多的人，像老王老洪小庄这样平凡伟大的人们的战斗隐忍牺牲，只为了那初生之朝阳。西边的太阳快要落山了，这首曾经在小学音乐课本里的歌，后来懂得了其中的深情和希望。张涵予老师这种硬气深沉的大哥的画风真的很帅，范伟老师的表现细致入微地牵动着观影的情绪啊。电影的服饰道具不错，衣服有磨破的地方，那些金属有摩痕有被摩擦得光亮的细节，这些就很真实。另外，海报居然是他们两的遗照……这看完电影之后再看一眼海报真是当场被刀。最后的最后，他们都聚在一起饮酒了，他们都牺牲了……再另外，真的想去看看北方的下雪天呀，悬崖里东北那深的可以埋人的积雪，还是这部里一直窸窸窣窣在飘的雪。
电影的质感还是不错的，最亮的一幕是范伟丢手榴弹，只是情节上波折还是不太够，跟鬼子反派斗智斗勇的对抗表现得并不够充分
