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.
看完时深感游戏与动漫产生互动时强烈的共情效果
高潮部分的二人决战，不论动作还是策略剧情，都将全片推至新的高度，而老家伙最后的敬光明正大的好人，也为他复杂的一生画上了句号，也将未来交给了维瑟米尔。
今年看过最好看的喜剧片，婊子配狗，天长地久。
多次的倒序，最后最后所谓的“真实改变”太讽刺了，让我哈哈哈哈哈大笑出了声，荒唐的闹剧，配合血腥还有点隔应的暴力情节，爽片可以担当。
不同的炼金药灌入体内之后就会获得自由与财富，当达到猎魔人水平天花板的时候到头来架不住时代变迁变成了被讨伐的对象。为消灭怪物而生，却又制造出新的怪物。假装忘记彼此，谈话间的温情就像回演了小时候离别的心结。
传奇的史诗开篇，现有的影视作品应该只是原著世界观的冰山一角，游戏已经是非常不错的全面展示。扛着双银剑的猎魔人是术士炼金实验的产物，物种间充满争夺与仇恨。杰洛特小时候竟然是个超级小光头
“人类需要怪物” ”世界永远会有新的怪物“
还行 整体剧情讲的很草。。喜欢lady zerbst
当然，某种程度上，其中依然存在打动人的点，"用怪物打败怪物";「人心即鬼蜮」，最难打败的，是人内心的恐惧。但是，抱歉，平庸的剧情，唯一的选择，不得葆有《巫师》的精髓。
Uncle Vesemir的成长史和Kaer Morhen的没落史。韩国人做的动画的风格也就还好吧，莫名有些鬼灭之刃的感觉。最后走心了。请继续把Witcher宇宙发扬光大！
4星。黑色幽默又拳拳到肉，故事也不落俗套。
#维瑟米尔真的很🉑
不差。美术没有受游戏的影响但也没有自己的风格，2d动画演出很漂亮但这里的猎魔人世界太罗曼蒂克不够肮脏不够吊诡，过分强调了剑与魔法但其实原著里魔法是最无关紧要的东西，魔法根本没有炫目也不值得依赖，但这样的演出也不赖，猎魔人世界的剧场版我还想继续看到。
能看到对各种经典片的“致敬”，出来的效果也非常一般，图个两小时的爽劲，留不下任何东西。
内核有深度且经得起推敲
这导演真是神人，和劳米拉佩斯的搭配可圈可点，《猎杀星期一》《死亡之雪2》，还有这部，都是超级喜欢的片子！反转，重口，幽默，惊悚，各个元素都齐全了，但是主角行为有点降智，枪和刀永远不知道捡，老父亲白白牺牲，总得来说真的很欢乐！！！
粉丝电影吧，被一开始的歌声所吸引，竟也看完了，超越岁月的爱情让人感动。
与原著设定有很多不符合的地方 不过依然是一部非常优秀的动画电影
可惜瑕疵在动画动作打击感略差
相当不错的另一个魔幻世界，一个个被重构的角色和故事。
