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.

音乐歌舞类电影在我这自带加分。
靠！终于见到几大柱了！！！结尾看得我全身发麻，赶紧出第二季吧！！！
美国梦主旋律电影。以歌舞类型来呈现，叙事支零破碎，大幅消解了主人公原型本身浓厚的悲剧色彩。加菲与原型相比只有形似，表演出了年轻人的激情，却没什么艺术家气质。但此类悲剧艺术家的传记片，总是会博得颁奖季的青睐，啧啧啧。
鬼灭之刃最出彩的地方，除了战斗以外，就是各有特色的角色了，尤其是这九位柱，岩，风，火，水，蝶，音，恋，霞，蛇。性格各异，但是都很有个人魅力，同时也代表着鬼杀队的精神，为守护他人愿意豁出全部。
介绍了鬼杀队的主要人物，并讲述了修炼，算承前启后，看了收获不少；几个柱对鬼的态度很强硬呢
我毫无疑问地热爱，赞美LMM，加菲和Rent。但是对我而言差了一口气，作为“颇受赞誉的冲奥电影”。但是可以作为“看完Rent之后了解作者的其他作品的电影，btw导演是LMM还有很多大咖客串”。
补签，打死我也想不到蝴蝶忍和地狱吹雪是同一个人配的。
这只能算部分动画合集吧！虽然打斗的部分较少，但剧情还是不错的
作为歌舞片，本片是绝对“好听”的，好听到爆的那种！
那田蜘蛛山篇的后续，柱们的出现为本作增色不少！
一直都只听说过Rent，但没什么了解，原来背后是这样的一段创作经历
アニメ第22話～第26話で構成された特別編集版。
看完直观感受还是排音乐剧和拍电影真的不一样，说是剧院纪实我可能会更接受一些。没有看过视听量这么贫瘠的歌舞片，全程旁白驱动，毫无戏中戏的纵深，平行剪辑基本上被用成藏拙的手段，大量的时间花在了人物的推镜头、反应镜头和环绕镜头，空间的切分丝毫不能让人兴奋（想想《爆裂鼓手》怎么处理架子鼓演奏的），更不用说形成风格了...唯一能把这么多MV片段串在一起的也就是滴答声了。我想这部片证明了一个电影导演和戏剧导演最重要的区别，是对空间的感知，当摄影机把表演的分量削弱后，导演需要调度的是一个世界。
这种没有任何tv私货的总集编 到底要出多少部 还不如加个私货还能喷一喷
补签，打死我也想不到蝴蝶忍和地狱吹雪是同一个人配的。
好像都完成了，但不好看。开头像歌舞片的大通货，中后段的故事又极为省略。倒数计时声串联起的多个时刻间的互文很流畅，加菲的几个唱段唱的不差。但加菲戏路还是太窄了，脆弱焦急都是可信的，但是舞蹈和音乐都不够潇洒，歌舞题材里加菲真的没有优势，太软糯了，演得好，可是不发光。主题和历史深度是高于【马戏之王】，但是从歌舞题材的歌舞表现，特别是男主表演精彩度、歌曲质量都远远弱于【马戏之王】。
估计看完rent再看会更有感触？好难过啊，大概是被捶打成了对什么都三分无所谓的社畜，梦想是什么？稀碎成渣渣了。
太太太纽约了！太太太太好哭了！到现在纽约也是，扔个bagel能砸到仨儿一边端盘子打工一边追求梦想的年轻艺术家们。对应最后Jon的结局，tick，tick可能就是血管瘤的警告
