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.

薛景求 李善均 赵宇镇 刘在明 啊啊啊啊啊a
韩国电影对韩国的历史进程的呈现也算是不遗余力了,<南山的部长们>拍的就是朴正熙被枪杀的事件,这部电影讲的是韩国总统大选的一个历程吧,以前还记得看过一个什么司机的,也是历史事件改编的,至少,韩国历史在电影里透明的,这也许才是文明该有的样子吧
前半还是很好看的，拍摄和剪辑都很有意思。但是前后多少有些矛盾，前面主角们信誓旦旦地说为了正义可以不择手段，后面又开始可怜巴巴地为了良心不能这么做。对于南山部长和纸牌屋爱好者来说，这部主角们的善和恶都不够彻底，所以最后输掉竞选完全在意料之内。
到半途，会产生一种和当时看《艺伎回忆录》一样的“不辨正邪的诡异热血感”；然而到了最后，金的鸡蛋论让我几乎感动的落泪，或许手握大权真的也是可以心怀大义的。
这阵容说是请了韩国半个电影圈子的人也不为过，用虚构的故事呈现金大中曲折的政途，把政治中面子与里子的关系编织的足够精彩，片子中很多问题都作了留白处理，其实直观的把答案或者真相给到观众效果会更好，当然如果是拍给自己人看的主旋律当我没说。
看不懂，什么是选举啊，什么是投票啊？
该死，
可以不择手段的获得胜利，但不要忘记为什么想赢。
把韩国政治前半段拍的有点儿戏，后半段又拍的太过于沉闷
来自希腊的亚里士多德这样说：
韩式工业化政治商业片，剧情流畅，水准在线，但是缺点也同样一目了然。徐昌大的角色形象无疑是成立的，但是对于他所坚持的手段作风，金云范和他的选举团队的反应却是前后不一的，知根知底却在关键时刻反对“演戏”，那不是虚伪即是虚假了。这种逻辑上的矛盾问题，暴露出的是剧本的欠缺打磨，铺垫不够，顺拐来凑，也直接损害了片尾那一番交心谈话的力量。
跟《南山的部长们》不同，这片处在一个平衡点上，再多说点就严肃到没人看了，再娱乐点就成了黑帮斗智片。现实是人尽事，成看天。影片的剧情线索还是有那么点赘婿小说，角色停留在主题服务，不过这片的数处运镜和剪辑很精彩。
室内置景不错，有年代感。
政治是肮脏的玩意，尤其在韩国七、八十年代。所谓“正义”，永远属于赢者！
我永远可以相信薛景求 飙戏太爽了 虽然不懂政治 但也看得很开心 中间几个娱乐性的情节格外喜欢 虽然这一定程度上削弱了政治的残酷性 不过emm 谁说政治都是严肃的呢 有时候还就挺魔幻的 啊 影子 光越强 影子就约浓 理所当然 但毕竟影子不是真的影子 是个人 所以在理念不和之后 最终走向了对立面 徐大昌这个人物 如果历史上真的有这么一个能如此呼风唤雨的人物 那确实是 太可怕了 玩弄人心于股掌之间 当然 能被轻易操纵的民众又何尝不令人悲哀 政治啊 啧
室内置景不错，有年代感。
我觉得是挺有意思的一部政治电影，选举黑皮书。关于选举里那些不择手段、你争我夺的部分挺精彩的，不足就是没必要搞那个亦师亦友、理念不同这种老套梗，明明有人物原型，涉及到感情那些戏真的是有点子画蛇添足的意味。以及我真的觉得薛景求简直就是韩国普遍流行的高潮式演技派里出淤泥而不染的一股清流，演技细腻到毫无痕迹，李善均也是不错滴。就是为了在一部韩影里没有捶胸顿足我都觉得可以给四颗星，何况政治部分还挺波谲云诡呢。（192）

拍得景还不错，虽然在同质类里面也有，内容就还好。
