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.
感觉和看漫画是两个感觉
西条高人（高桥广树 配音）自8岁时进入演艺圈起，就一直生活在众人的赞誉和聚光灯之下。浸淫在娱乐圈里许久，高人的性格变得傲慢而冷漠，但从另一方面来说，常年和普通社会脱节令他也有着意外单纯和天真的一面。高人有一个他引以为傲的荣誉——连续5年蝉联“最想被拥抱的男人”排行榜第一位，然而今
爱死蠢太和高人的爱情！真的是触动了心底里最柔软的部分！！
很奇妙的事件，可是感觉电影反而有些把它和我隔开了
片子最大的败笔是虚焦！虚焦！根本不能当风景片看，从第一幕画面中心就是虚焦的，后面每个开阔山野场景都有或近景或远景不同位置的虚焦，眼睛不断收缩调整还以为自己的眼睛出了问题就很难受！片子内容还行，到达洞的终点，牧羊老人的生命也走到终点（不过嘴部还在微动就很破坏观感）美嘉一号厅屏幕右上方有一个小蓝点越注意到越注意到，一度以为是摄像机鬼影想着这也太业余了…倒也不闷开始铺垫阶段比较催眠不困也给整困了。这洞到底也有充足氧气有点不可思议一度为队员担心，摄像机机位存在感让人出戏。美嘉前排地下身能感受到微微的风，在洞底匍匐的画面有了略微妙的4D感
BJIFF2021# 8.5 杜比的音效和色彩有加分，前面一直都没get为何探险队对洞穴的下探过程和洞穴旁的一位老人的最后生命状态要做平行，直到影片过半后的一组平行镜头恍然大悟。洞内下探到后半深部，从底部镜头给到强光手电照向洞底水潭，木屋中医生用手电照射老人的眼睛确认生命的状态。探索即是生命之源，外寻天地之边界，内探生命之无穷，用追求纯粹的影像和声音将二者结合是一次极其超验的生命深度探索之旅。
爱让人如此脆弱，那也肯定是，为了跟这份温暖一起活下去，而生的脆弱。
纯正日本耽美风，近几年很难得的这类型的动漫了～
三星半。生命的枯竭，深邃的洞穴终会见底，历史的斑驳不过是燃尽后的烟尘，自然保护与人类活动如何形成平衡，都成了眼底的静置。当洞口的牛变化为人，结果好像也没有太多不同。高度自然主义的塑造，洞穴的光线使用技巧高超。
斗舞的高人先生也太迷人了吧！这个篇章有一些关于两个人怎样长久走下去的思考呢，喜欢～
建议一边睡觉一边看，你会收获如在洞中的体验
很浪漫，这剧场版真的很浪漫。在遇到你之前，我觉得世界是无趣的。我爱每一种花，因为对我来说都一样。但你出现了，自此我便有了偏爱，有了心之所向，所以非你不可了。
绝了。每个静镜头都把色彩、光线、构图以及声音组织得那么好，尤其喜欢队员在教堂里和耶稣像一起沉睡那一幕。还有一些刻意但巧妙的对比：摩天大楼与自然洞穴，山野的明亮宽阔与洞穴的幽暗狭窄，以及最后探险的结束和生命的终止。想问：洞里的足球捡出来了吗？
哎哟，呆梨爱好者+大自然傻看着就乐呵呵爱好者，觉得简直满分了。普利亚大区这么美啊，有那手艺画图，我也天天户外钻洞爬山去了。谁不爱看牛牛扇耳朵积雨云赛跑还幻想能被雾气包围着呢。
对准太说自己好像被隔绝在亚克力板之外，像行尸走肉的空壳一样活着，情绪毫无波澜之类的内心独白还挺有同感的。
剧情不怎么吸引人，把主角塑造得太完美，一切都是因为人生太顺遂而找不到意义，最后在爱情中寻找意义，太肤浅无趣了
看著看著也就忘記了再沒有字幕翻譯角色偶爾的對話溝通。手背上的脈膊跳動，以及最後迷霧裏從遠方轉來的吶喊。洞內探見了盡頭，洞外牧羊人生命得到了延續。
北影11#6啊太牛逼了！全片不超过十句对白，但后半部分特别抓人。太舒缓心灵了。一个人683米的深洞扎进了平静的乡村，周围全是牛脖铃的声音和山间不时的气候变化。到洞底时，老人也死了，那是城市的代价。
想看副cp！！
如果是剧集聚焦的是蠢太对高人的追求，那剧场版注重的就是高人对蠢太的奔赴😭双向的爱真的太感动了！
