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.
需要再同步上映下前两部，完全毫无印象….看了三分之二都没进入剧情
建议改名邓布利多爱情故事，CP粉嗨翻，路人观众沉默，本质上就是观感有着严重壁垒的粉丝电影。剧情逻辑崩坏漏洞百出，人物杂乱没重点塑造单薄，仿佛一切都是预设结果后再填充过程，没有丝毫说服力可言。三部了，「神奇动物」还仅仅像是「哈利波特」的同人作品。
啥都有点儿，但也可以说是要啥没啥。骗骗小孩的电影。
电影里大家都是衣架子，衣品永远在线。人多落魄衣品都不掉线。
可能是我想多了，不过用麒麟选领袖这事儿不是《十二国记》里面的吗……撇开前面两部，单纯当邓布利多和格林德沃的爱情故事看就还行，说得过去，但这是个系列啊，那么多人在闹些什么肾球啊，最后一战那火花闪的，我脱口而出这是俩电工= =唯一值得肯定的是格林德沃换人真是太成功了！！！默默然咋变心那么快，烘托了两集结果就哑火了？？
看好多人提出来的各种疑问，我觉得是不是有些观众上学的时候阅读理解从来拿不着分，现在也只能处理30秒的信息，超过短视频长度就没办法联系前后
节奏偏慢，很多剧情都有点无聊，作为观众和哈迷更希望魔法展示场面再多一点，邓布利多和格林德沃的相爱相杀是亮点，神奇动物沦为工具。这个系列和哈利波特系列相比最大缺点就是没有特别让人印象深刻的主角
看完才发现，果然是一部爱情片，还是虐恋，从开头的喝咖啡互诉心里话回忆当初的誓言，到如今有一方的背叛，再到最后相爱相杀互摸胸口，虐的人都要哭出来了。拔叔这次戏份不少，是最大的亮点。期待下一部拍快点。8/10
所以麒麟为啥死了还能被控制着在众人面前下跪？我百思不得其解。复制了6个箱子加上真的一共7个，最后只用了5个，还有2个呢？格林德沃搞半天还以为有多强，结果就这？视效还行，高潮戏太少，不过麒麟还是蛮可爱的。
有原著粉丝愿意告诉我这个系列有什么好看的吗？看男同在城堡上呲烟花吗？
两年半没进电影院了，结果整个AVX厅八个人包场。也许期望值够低吧，体验还可以，更想读正儿八经写成的书。
箱子戏法已经不新鲜了，上一部也不记得讲什么了。。。重回霍格沃茨的感觉真好！金色飞贼打了个酱油卖了个萌。。。两人横着走也蠢萌蠢萌。。。配乐几乎没有存在感。。。//with @小龙须
说好给3星的还是要+🌟！只为了那句”谁还会爱你邓布利多”！ggad越回味越上头～剩下要夸奖龙虾🦞之舞精彩片段堪称堪称全剧高潮。麒麟造型不是白色不是龙衍生感觉功课做歪了…最后：搞事业搞政治的格林沃德高贵leader果然不如淫威施压洗脑邪教伏地魔大人来的有霸权感！希望后几部能拍的紧凑&逻辑更透一些。以及，没有彩蛋。
FB系列目前最喜欢的一部 麦子来演GG真的太好了
克雷登斯终于杀青了我的天。
6.0/10 分。初看，蓝光。第三部。前面两部我都忘记啥剧情了。特效还可以，就是那个剧情太扯了，让一只动物来选择，无语，幼稚。没认出裘德·洛来。麦叔演技还是杠杠的，就是又一次演反派。还不如麦叔2020年的《正义骑士》好玩。老麦，《汉尼拨》的第四季还能有吗？。。。
seriously？JK 罗琳是彻底摆烂了吗？这剧作要多敷衍有多敷衍，设定要多硬有多硬，如果写不下去干脆就不要写了好吗？
邓布利多的秘密终于不再是秘密，以及他最后释然的笑容和独自一人的背影太戳我了。
小雀斑和动物还是很好看的但是不喜欢那几个主要配角。。。
突然变成想一出是一出的故事，构建起来的魔法世界瞬间坍塌，不苛求人物塑造，好歹结尾逻辑不要把人都消失吧，一盘散沙。拍的最好看的就是面包房外那条街
