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.
同样是伽椰子风格的鬼，化妆比《致命感应》恐怖，因为更接近真人。铁锹划拉的声音让人想起《寂静岭》。
3.5星，剧本不错，可惜拍烂了，想必原著应该很精彩！
三星半吧，当作爱情电影来看算是好看的，有很多很美的镜头。但还是觉得这个老套的故事有点浪费了埃菲尔与铁塔这个本可以非常宏大丰富的主题。可能拍个铁塔爱情片本身就是为了迎合世界人民对铁塔的美好想象。另外虽然Emma Mackey已经尽量打扮得很古典了，但看起来还是和Romain Duris有代沟啊！
我反正不敢进去一不小心就轮回怨气还重的地方，女主吵死了
按照汇率来说，三万日元约合人民币一千五到一千八左右。黑社会四五个打手“办事”的工资这么廉价么？其实按照网贷的正常定义，一千多的欠款，网贷公司都不会花钱雇人催收，因为不划算。不过故事其实还行的。
法国片总会有激情戏不让人失望 天才也需要爱情来激发灵感 特别是法国人 才疏学浅 才知道造埃菲尔和自由女神的是一个人
作为一部传记片来说有些太简单了，不过罗曼好帅哦
整体观感其实尚可，主要是服装已经唯美的埃菲尔铁塔太吸睛了。其实埃菲尔铁塔本身就是一段烂漫的故事，不需要编剧瞎编的。有机会一定要和爱的人登上埃菲尔铁塔。
看到那些鬼手其实是带的黑手套，我就笑了...
还以为是2000年代的韩国恐怖片呢，挺吓人。
这酸臭的爱情占比太大了，应该改名叫埃菲尔的早年爱情故事。白白浪费了那么好的故事和场景，耗资巨大复原场景，又请来英语区火爆的炸子鸡艾玛，属实有点可惜。
铁塔立项开始还挺专业的赶脚，说明都挺理工男。。但是对于一个be的感情线也太多了，Emma的大面积特写也没有抗住这种跨越几十年的感情戏。。有点可惜题材了
艾玛·麦肯(《性爱自修室》)、罗曼·杜里斯([新女友])将主演法语新片[艾菲尔铁塔](Eiffel，暂译)。马丁·布尔布隆([要爸还是妈])执导。影片将围绕艾菲尔铁塔背后的爱情故事展开。艾玛将饰演Adrienne Bourgès，一名与工程师居斯塔夫·埃菲尔有关的神秘、出身名门的女性。故事讲述艾菲尔与弗里德利·奥古斯特·巴特勒迪合作成功自由女神像后，他为1889年巴黎世界博览会设计一些引人注目的东西而倍感压力，在寻找灵感时，他偶遇了Adrienne，他们之间禁忌的激情也为艾菲尔铁塔的设计带来了灵感。该片将于8月开拍。
已知男主是死了的，但是问题来了，他啥时候死的？
一段并不成功的爱情故事和一座修成正果的地标性建筑 作为学过建筑建构的建筑生 看到主人公在电影里不断描结构外侧感觉很出戏 整部电影没有特别抓人的高潮部分 也没有特别瞩目的短板 下次再去巴黎的时候 也许会对埃菲尔铁塔有多一重认识
一般，五分多差不多了，其实这个设定还算可以，时间空间，这点很多人玩，还是可以玩出花样，但是这个片很平庸
30分钟后全程高能，虽然阅恐无数，吓人手法教老套，并没有惊吓到我，但气氛烘托到位。现在恐怖片拍成这样已经非常不错了。本来想给3星，一看评分才5.5？那必须5颗星。
大杂烩，其实算有一点新意，可是编剧手法不高明，有点看得莫名奇妙。前30分钟看得无聊，后面30分钟蛮恐怖，可是能不能不要那么黑啊！！！啥都看不到，没有两个月亮好
“埃菲尔铁塔的形状像字母A” 这个承载我无数浪漫向往的建筑背后的浪漫故事
挺烧脑的 对于男主是何时over的 目前看到四种答案 1 1990年被管理员拍死 2 想要用金刚杵捅死自己解脱的时候被管理员拍死 3来修道院的路上出车祸死 4影片一开始就已经死 。可怜的男主 我希望编剧脑洞大开出续作让光明战胜黑暗
