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.

中国观众再也不能在大银幕上看到这么猛的港片了，悲哀。
在这部电影里，甄子丹已经开始给自己的动作场面设计做总结了。这样的动作巨星很难有了。陈木胜导演逝世，如此“尽皆过火尽皆癫狂”的拍法，也很难有了。谢霆锋很拼命，演得出色，但他本命不在动作片。夸张一点说，这部电影也代表着一个时代的落幕。
还可以吧
就算是第一季的扩充，无论看多少遍都觉得帅炸了，热血沸腾！永远都喜欢
四颗星星给亚丝娜 也算是填坑吧 当前传来看
甄子丹身上荷载的价值实际上并不能代表建制，从各方在四年前庭审中的证词可以得到明确，因此他与所谓反派之间的矛盾在根本上是伪命题，对立关系的稳固依托于他的一贯坚持的信念（其地位实际处于两极之间的平衡点），所以必须承认的缺陷是非常用被任达华约谈的一场戏跟体制达成虚假的共识是极其草率的。甄子丹电影的优势就在于突破了传统动作片刻意将正反派设置为势均力敌的过时思维（现在看来只会显得拉胯），在确保动作的连续、层次性和动作元素的丰富性方面难度都要更大。
bug1.谢霆锋逃脱追捕的时候还有时间换摩托服
看完只有一种感觉:港片的味道。
四颗星星给亚丝娜 也算是填坑吧 当前传来看
2014年，香港某事件里，有七名执法警员将现场一名男子带至角落殴打，被媒体拍下，遭起诉。2017年，七名警员罪成，坐监两年。这片里的“怒火”源头，放在这几年香港社会里，其实是个不错的命题，但解题没啥亮点，往火里猛加油。甄子丹一拿警棍，就像回到了《杀破狼》片场。
略失望，动作戏很不错很带感，但是逻辑和情感实在生硬。首先，一开始把坏人打死就很没必要，口供也有了人质也能救到了，还非得为了挑衅而挑衅，不然后面没办法误杀，问题是连误杀都很莫名，六个人拉不开一张嘴？没有别的办法？全片的初始动机就不太有力。其次师徒情，兄弟情也让人很难代入。师父的人物立得很完整，徒弟的就明显交代不够。五兄弟里除了老大不用说，还有就是太子因为太弱而比较有存在感，其他三人，除了做工具人，他们的性格？情感？特点？完全不知道。五个人的绑定情感就让人磕不起来，最后一个个地死去也没有给人什么情感冲击。第三中间有一度节奏慢得没有必要，那段众人敬礼救邦主简直是尬到脚趾扣地，邦主讲了一番深情道理也很生硬，太鸡汤了。结尾的死前对看配上音乐还是很有触动，徒弟的反问也很令人唏嘘，冲这个结尾多给一颗星。
太特么好看了，谢霆锋太特么帅了，一开始我以为他是在向小丑致敬，看到最后发现是剪刀手爱德华～打斗场面看到了《杀破狼》的影子，最后谢霆锋的死很悲壮，果然仇恨才是第一生产力…致敬陈木胜！
谢霆锋这个角色过于暴戾，前戏不足，转折不足，而直接呈现出来的明显就是普通的恐怖分子，相较于《拆弹2》中的潘乘风，在人物弧光的丰富度上可确实差太远了，至于甄子丹这种傻白甜，就更难有什么心理深度可言（为救妻子而目睹警司死去本来可以展开的）。两大主角无法与《拆弹2》相较，由此展开的叙事与主题表达必然会有所欠缺，难以达到香港警匪片的较高水平。本片的长处在于动作戏与枪战场面的确够劲（痞帅的谢霆锋真的帅的雅痞），但想在同类型电影中突出，单靠这点可远远不够
对刀剑感兴趣的小伙伴可以去看一下bilibili UP主写的一个杂谈
谢大厨是真的帅 麻烦多拍些电影吧 不要浪费了这个颜值 结尾两个人躺地上泪眼看着对方那里 就是曾经的手足互相伤害 太难过了
张崇邦双标，但刚敖连没欺辱过他，只是没顺应他心意的人也要杀，这还有啥好说的，伪善的人vs反社会的人，刚敖最后还在问邦主，如果那天是你去审可乐，我们的命运会不会互换，有啥好问的啊，邦主去问可乐就啥也问不出来呗，然后霍先生被杀，全组背锅不能升职就这样啊。
第一次get了谢霆锋。。。强烈建议卷发半永！怎么莫名烦甄子丹那个角色？果真三观跟着五官跑吗😂
甄子丹，中国传统大男子主义式自以为是代言人，人设脑子有大🧊，告别人的状告得大义凌然，破案全靠白捡，轮到自己的时候开始讲道德仁义了，做警察完全无视规章制度，做人以自我为中心完全不考虑别人，全程只知道发脾气打人给别人上课。还跟谢霆锋打，你这叫登月式碰瓷，你好意思吗？
从影片呈现来看，可乐之死其实是警察挑衅在先（并非无奈自卫、过失杀人）。这样一来，阿敖一众人的冤屈程度大减，由此而生的复仇意味也随之削弱了。
