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.
Hollywood Bowl入夜更显几何学的美，配上爱乐乐团，充满诗情画意。但是Billie这张专辑整体上不如前作好听。
很多地方看得出山姆.雷米的本色不改，但绝对不是漫威电影里面称得上上乘的一部。漫威宇宙发展到今天，咱们就那么一看吧，也不用认真，反正不管褒贬，人家的宇宙只会越来越大，永无止境。
Wanda, 漫威最强的超级英雄, 但也是最悲惨的一人… 为了全人类亲手杀死了心爱的人, 却并不能挽救全世界, 目睹了心爱人的二次死亡, 因执念用魔法幻化出了一个家,但最终只是黄粱一梦.
至尊法师王就够菜够搞笑了，没想到还有个更菜更搞笑的光照会。
娴熟的摄制工艺，好听的歌曲，精致的动漫和舞台演唱完美结合，高清的画质。
6/10，多元宇宙讲述了什么故事，又是另一个宇宙的旺达想要自己的孩子，然后就不惜牺牲别人的生命企图复活自己的孩子的命，最后看到主宇宙的旺达和孩子其乐融融的氛围放弃了执念，等等，这不是电视剧旺达幻视的重复2.0吗？所以为啥叫奇异博士2？盘点下我不喜欢其他缺点:
本片的杂烩性体现于它暗戳戳指向美国社会难以治愈的“癌症”，即美国家庭当中的家暴问题。抛弃剧情人物内在逻辑性的乖张、马马虎虎，影片在惊悚、恐怖感上，还是制造了观影氛围的。作为强类型恐怖片，完成度OK的。温子仁作为华裔演员，在影片当中使用东方面孔的表达，天然带上了一些新移民与种族的基因，尽管它不是位列于凸显位置上，但也形成影片的视觉元素符号。影片最终将诡异、离奇，坐落回医学上的畸形儿设定，为恐怖故事找到现实根基，虽然它那么不可令人信服，但好在导演细腻的铺垫，能够自圆其说。关于“双面连体”的设定，似乎指向了自我意识觉醒，两种意识间的抗争，力量此消彼长。是否隐喻个体自我消失，与探索自我另一可能。显然这个高概念设定，脱胎于“双重人格”设定，后者表现较佳的影片是《四手联弹》，给我留下深刻印象。
喊了这么久，多元宇宙终于在这一部真正展开了。就好像灭霸对于《复仇者联盟3》的意义，猩红女巫这次是真正的主角，实力碾压各路超级英雄，有几个甚至是一招秒杀，场面各种残暴不忍直视。山姆雷米作为B级恐怖片爱好者，又过足了瘾。一个疯狂的母亲，即使再怎么乱来，还是让人恨不起来。太伤感了
北美东部来打卡. 整部影片整体来说, 泪点十足. 当Strange精心打着领带参加Christine的婚礼; 当Christine问博士 “Are you happy?”; 当得知Wanda所做的一切只是为了和孩子生活在一起; 当女巫质问Strange “你曾用时间宝石做交易, 这次用孩子换全世界的安宁又有何不可”；当女巫说, “我想取她能力, 这样当孩子生病我可以去任何平行时空寻求医治”: 当博士对Christine说 “I love you in every universe!”…
这一版的OverHeated和弦乐版的Therefore I Am都太好听了.
😂我一直以为猩红女巫只是打酱油的…原来这么猛的吗？
总结：没预告片好看。😩😩😩
后脑勺隐隐作痛，故事很完整，但是套路也多，一开头就能猜出来梗。
更喜欢前面一半歌曲，后面似乎好几首显得有些口水了。乐团的形式很加分。
用畸怪以及反向运动来吸睛，但是爆发力实在有些突破人体极限，不够说服力，只是为了爽而爽
看到一半，朋友在旁边嘀咕，旺达在现实生活中绝对是个Karen
还是失望比较多，预告片饼画的很大，也有可能是看解析看太多期望太高，这就是一部简简单单的巫师组的沾点恐怖元素的老套英雄片
真人&动画，独唱&唱诗班
以为会像The World's A Little Blurry那样是幕后制作纪录片，没想到就是把专辑从头到尾唱了一遍，连串词都没有😂Therefore I Am全场最佳。全专最爱的Happier Than Ever反而还没有演唱会Live版带劲儿。
旺达美如画，但电影依旧让我再一次体会到了看复联4的憋屈感，漫威真是完全不在乎角色的连贯性，为了推进剧情就硬改设定。明明旺达在WV里最后都走出来了，这一部又开始执迷。此片又和杨紫琼的多重宇宙电影前后上映，说实话，杨紫琼那一部好看多了。
