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.
招财好可怜哦～本来也是冲两个男女主演看的，千篇一律爱情故事里的一个吧！孙千和张海宇也是二搭，嘻嘻嘻……
速度也太快了吧，我不是说第一天从完全不认识到回家上床的速度而是电影进展速度，这开片十五分钟不到就可以大结局了后面发生就都可以猜得到未免也太赶进度了点吧…女主是不是瑞士酒店管理专业毕业啊，说买房就买房…富婆求包养啊。不过毛晓彤妈妈倒还是不错的，小孩自己生活不干涉真难得。最后想说分了就是分了，再在一起这种结局在现实里是不存在的，美好的结局不能接受这不是现实。
不得不说毛晓彤和杨玏这组合搭配的很好，可能因为《三十而已》的缘故，感觉剧情上像是看《三十而已》番外篇的感觉。毛晓彤依旧看似小鸟依人实际上情感爆发力强！两人的演技没有问题，剧本也没有问题，问题可能就是这部剧太《三十而已》了！依旧像电视剧一样，虽然深爱对方，却因生活的一地鸡毛而分手……只不过《三十而已》是因为流产，而电影是因为招财……（注：是因为有《三十而已》的影子才给三颗星若没看过《三十而已》会给四颗星甚至五颗星）
无语子，我表弟居然要把我和他亲姐拐去陪他跨年看爱情片//结束了，艹，和刚看完的隔壁寒冬有的一拼，但胜在，从邻座泪流满面的男高中生入迷的状态里隐约预知到了：作为他亲爱的姐姐有瓜可以吃了
开始比较荒诞，见色起意？情侣日常，还是比较甜，温情小制作的感觉～
但是带女朋友去看还是不错的！
虽然男生有很多事情做得温暖又贴心，比如就算应酬到很晚也记得买感冒药，但是光他说要养宠物后期又丢给女主照料这一点就很恶心了，以宠物类比孩子是个很好的切入点，国内家庭大多数应该都经历过小孩生病，母亲一个人照顾，父亲迟迟赶来后还要轻飘飘指责母亲没有照顾好孩子，好像男人的生活中只有自己的事情最主要，自己的工作最重要，女人的辛苦与努力不值一提
很肤浅，老套的剧情，男主就因为看到女主一个笑容，就无脑喜欢她宠她，前半小时强行撒糖！因为男主工作忙，有女性合伙人，女主没有安全感，争执，吵架！2022年还有这种老梗！所有人物都很标签，没有深挖当代男女爱情的痛点。最后结局也是莫名其妙，强行回忆杀，强行洗白，按头哭，女主缺乏安全感这个问题并没有解决，男女主怎么就和好了？人物成长在哪？
感觉是为了凑cp现攒的本子，甜的地方是真甜，乱的地方也是真乱，只能感慨一句不谈恋爱啥事儿没有。不过氛围还是蛮适合跨年的，两位主演都不错。
这部影片可以说是我一段恋情的真实回溯。现实中，其实很多恋爱的双方都是只能“同甘”无法“共苦”，每个人都有自我的一面。“自卑、爱无能、以为物质是幸福”的男人与“自信、缺安全感、敏感、脆弱又多疑”的女人，双方在相爱相吵的过程中逐渐学会认识自己看见彼此，用时间理清头绪，于是我们就看到结尾，当她们再遇见，都变成了新的自己。所以新的一年，请放下过往爱的不堪，学着倾听、学着爱自己！
最后我也在想，如果两人还在彼此念念不忘，那还是走在一起吧，毕竟如果真的是不对的人，那肯定是没心思怀念过去的，哪怕过去再好，也不会翻开回忆，翻篇才是当下最应该做的。谁愿意停留在记忆中止步不前呢。
如果是你，你想重来过还是不打扰？
海报可以改改喜庆点。虽然注水，但是就当三十而已的番外看看。
一部比较无聊的都市爱情片，最好的还是毛晓彤的颜值。两个人莫名其妙的就擦出火花并且很快同居，开局堪称魔幻，在短短一年的时间里经历了爱情的起起落落，男主忙于创业忽略了对女友的陪伴对家庭的尽责，事业与爱情需要平衡的智慧。一年之后两人再次重逢，此时男主已经创业成功，研发的APP有了很大的用户量，在机场即将分别之时，两个人重归于好破镜重圆。但细思恐极的一点是男主作为运营起大型APP的创业者岂不是更忙了更无法陪伴了，或许二人能够复合的根源就在于男主的成功，不再是每日瞎忙却还不起信用卡的没房的屌丝了，原来钱才是女主口中所谓的安全感。
剧情内容都是老故事，没有拍得很出彩，一般，后面小段略假，为了happy ending。
2021年最后一部电影，2022年第一部电影，也是很久以来第一部完整看完的国产电影，虽然剧情略显俗套，幸运的是没有太多煽情片段
客观来说还是比较适合情侣看的一部爆米花片，传统套路，没啥亮点。
一起看的人好像蛮被戳的，我还好好像很平。
配的歌都很好听，而且歌词都挺搭剧情的，回头要支持一下。
