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.
学了一辈子的数学拿来制造利器，美丽发光的公式在生活里的每一处，也是只有这等痴汉才能看到。南朝北朝皆是乌鸦一般黑，都不如草莓奶昔来得那么可口沁人心脾。
这部电影的考拉也不是主角啊，译名有点劝退。剧情展开比第一部有意思点。
不错，冒险，搞笑，头发屑比做流星雨，哈哈哈。
为了丁仔看的。普普通通的动画片hhh确实很亲子。
相对于人性之复杂丑陋，数学本身确实单纯美好。
只看前面还以为是传记片。从北边逃到韩国的数学家隐姓埋名在一座高中当保安，高中里几乎都是有钱人家的孩子，他们能够去昂贵的补习班。然而高中里还有极少数穷人家的孩子，他们没钱去补习，自然学习也就不太好，特别是数学。阴差阳错，数学家保安教起了穷人家孩子的数学，这个孩子数学好了之后就可以不被迫转学了。但这个孩子被无良教师陷害，成为了考题泄露的替罪羊。一个失去儿子，一个失去父亲，两个人既是师生，也从对方那吸取缺失的爱。本来还是韩版《心灵捕手》的故事，后半段加入“南北问题”后就有一些兜不住的感觉。也许单纯讲学习和友谊会更好，情感上能收获更多共鸣。从录音机到手机再到现场演奏巴赫的音乐以及用数字当乐谱弹奏的钢琴曲，算是不错的亮点。
这部电影太重情节了，没有好好把神奇动物学家的主角做好，真的有点失败。德国和丹麦的演员长得太像了，他俩不演个双胞胎，太浪费了
而不是老大叔深情搞基
不喜欢这个主题和故事，小蜘蛛跳求偶舞唯一亮点
译名咋回事？以为这是2012年那部《考拉大冒险》的续集？关键考拉也不是主角啊，主角是以蛇为首的“丑动物”小组。电影里那个“丑动物联盟”其实挺有意思的，好好开发一下，应该会有看点。内心善良的“丑动物”可比腹黑的漂亮动物讨喜多了。其它也就没什么优点了，剧情比较低幼，特效也看得出投资不多，最大的笑点来自随时准备发情的蜘蛛。
可惜讲得太浅了，要是在讽刺教育的部分再好好打磨一下就好了。整体是一个《心灵捕手》式的故事，现在看来有点老套，但是闪光点还是很多的。崔岷植的演技太牛了，简直出神入化，要为他加一星。
1.剧情上其实没太大问题，就是有点平淡。2.服化道水平肉眼可见的缩水（毕竟德普3000万美金白给）3.拔叔的格林德沃真的相比德普差太多了。4.傻逼华纳！！
对阿不福思没有任何意见，但想问他是不是给编剧塞钱了？
ps：数学是我最讨厌的科目，以前上初中的时候数学每次都只考十几分或者二十几分（二哈）……同时物理、化学也是我的噩梦 ，俺是理科渣…
看不懂其实可以看看前作的时间线整理，看之前去复习了一下，其实觉得比第二部好看多了，只要知道谁是谁时间线是怎样的就知道每个人在做什么了，少年魔咒真的好那个……赫院人真的看不得这样对待小动物，我真的一开场就看哭了……谁受得了。纯路人，只要懂神奇动物时间线都觉得好看……
剧情真的太平太傻了，越往后越无聊，节奏太糟糕了。
看完后，我儿子经常说起那句暗号，你丑，我丑，大家都该这么丑，丑是漂亮的新潮流。实在是太可爱了!
这个系列的价值真的是快榨干了，人物无聊 ，节奏缓慢，故事简陋，所有的轻松部分看起来刻意尴尬，非要等到没人看票房雪崩了才不拍吗，真是可惜了 。
2022.4.27 现在的韩影资源真的奇怪了..以前1 2天就能出熟肉但现在这些字幕组都不想翻译还是不敢翻译的 最不能理解的还是英文字幕都有了但还是没人翻译…其实乐鱼的字幕还不错。。我都不知道多久没看崔珉植的片了 蛮温馨的故事 但崔是真的老了啊..满头白发 手上还都是皱纹 男主居然是脱北的 怪不得没字幕组敢做是吧…板书这么有感觉 还真有老师那味了“寻找答案的过程更重要”很可以 ？？女主居然喜欢小男主。。又不好看 反倒女主好好看啊 e原来可以表达一切曲线啊。。圆周率都能弹成曲子 ？？居然有爱的迫降里面那个朝鲜军 男主居然是证明黎曼猜想的数学家 小男主帮男主找数学论文的监控被当作是偷试卷了 男主儿子想要到朝鲜北边还不同意..？厉害了…北边数学只能用来制造武器 南边只能进入好大学和获取高薪
在澳大利亚outback呆过，看着好熟悉。
