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.
五星！不怕你骄傲！
这种电影就是会让人不明白主角是怎么生存下来的，讲义气，擅长的也是匹夫之勇，面对几伙势力的尔虞我诈，感觉他都不是一个量级的，怎么就能生存下来还当了老大呢？不过片子里一些感情戏拍的还不错，感叹一旦踏上黑帮这条路，哪还有好日子可言，不是杀人就是被杀。
画面质感很好，情节紧凑，各角色的演技都很好
够猎奇 本质上就是黑天鹅➕万能钥匙 但分分钟希望小女孩暴毙 戏多的小孩一点也不值得同情
畸形的父母反哺出畸形的儿女
韩国黑帮片一直都是拳拳到肉 刀刀见血的真实感 都是黑帮小头目人在江湖 身不由己 与卑劣的街头一起看 会有一个字头的诞生的感觉 提携自己的大哥 与自己的好兄弟 砍向他们的刀只要犹豫半点 死得就会是自己
粗制滥造的cult片，芬兰和北欧其他几国拍电影的水平差出了一个苍穹
乍看一眼本片资源的介绍：稳坐韩国2022电影票房宝座的黑帮电影，心想：这能不看？同时在某种层面又将这部影片与之前看过的韩国影片——《新世界》作比较，后者类似无间道，且有李政宰+崔岷植+黄政民+宋智孝的加持，看完本片，发现还是高估了这部名为《热血》的片子，想要的是十年饮冰难凉热血的那种燃，然而本片喝完热水都燃不起来，讲述了九庵这个地方，有句话重复了两次，就是九庵这个地方虽小，但是想吞下它也得见血。而本片其实就是在展示这见血的过程。郑宇饰演的混混一开始也没有多大的野心，但是被逼着进了这个局。直到那认他做儿子的人死去，彻底的爆发了，所以说不要轻易摧毁一个男人想守护的东西。因为那代价，或许你难以想象。有别于港产黑帮其中一种的《古惑仔》，本片描述的韩国黑帮并没展现所谓的兄弟情。
❤︎⌁⋆春水初生，春林初盛，春风十里，不如你。
一点也没看出来热血在哪里，叫这名字的意思大概是“缺啥补啥”？
小女孩挺好看的 有被鸟人恶心到一点...中间我还以为它把邻居那个女孩的皮扒下来套自己身上了 剧情没什么新意
一部看似平淡无奇的电影，讲述两人一鸟为爱迷失的故事。
电影主演想突出人物变化，男主开始默默无闻，只有变得狡诈才能成就大事，就是这种变化，可惜节奏太乏味了，拍得没劲儿啊，及格分
剧情100%都能猜到不带一丝偏差的，不过这是靠吸血的真·蝙蝠侠啊。
你就是那种人 从来不会羡慕别人 只会怨恨自己 你这种人只有两条路 你要怎么选？ 有人说过，我这种人只能去两个地方，要么跌至谷底，要么登顶为王。他还说，这两个都特别冷清，却毫无意义。有些人死了，有些人离开，火热的东西全部消失，一切犹如幻觉，变得冷清，毫无意义，但我们又要在幻觉中活下去，将耻辱与悲伤深埋大海。 这俩句话我给五星了
本來覺得是一部滿無腦的黑幫片，但……後面劇情很可以~
扭曲的母亲和亲子关系 只能用另一个自己代替
很有意思的北欧小实验。孵化出自己的阴暗面，愤怒、嫉妒、暴力，人性的恶从来都和年龄性别无关。从鸟变成鸟人变成人，在这样一个极度畸形又各怀鬼胎的家庭里，善良终究消亡。鸠占鹊巢的怪物食腐饮血，也敌不过妈妈的笑容令人恶心恐惧。
只是剧情有点乱，用刀杀的人，总是杀不死。
首先，惊艳我的是主角所在的别墅社区。稀稀疏疏栽着高大的树木，一栋栋相同的别墅镶嵌在绿色的草坪上，彼此距离正合适，与国内紧挨在一起的别墅迥然不同，不得不感叹发达国家的居住体验。
