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.
小城市没有排片 请问 哪个视频APP可以看
巨幕的情感冲击力成倍；小兔开始五分钟就热泪盈眶；喜欢蓝色铁皮轮椅的娓娓道来，小火车的隧道那段泪腺决堤。感谢主创们的真诚与温柔🌤
而童话故事的真实又告诉我，童年并非只有美好，但这些经历却会让我变得更好。
之后线上看完补上吧
《翼娃子》:原书出彩，这个单元也蛮喜欢。
适合带小孩去看
天很冷，心很暖。挺特别的动画形式，风格各异，水平也各异，但是所表达的主题是一样，带给人的温暖也是一样的。不是特别商业化的电影，但是希望它能有好的预期吧，毕竟我么要向着明亮那方。
感谢我的朋友请我观看这部电影。
《小火车》《外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅》《翼娃子的星期天》《哼将军和哈将军》好喜欢！！！
很欣喜，也很感动，七位导演用诚意打开了国产动画电影的另外一种可能，也让人看到了中国动画原创的力量。影城里有合家观影的，也有不少结伴而行的年轻人，还蛮受欢迎的一部电影。
首先感谢毒舌的组织，很棒的一次观影体验！第一次看到绘本以电影的形式出现，很适合带着小朋友观影。七个故事的很好看，最喜欢的是萤火虫女孩，糖水铺，小火车。萤火虫女孩是一趟奇妙旅程，老周师傅幸苦了，画面好舒服。糖水铺的蒯【kuai】老伯，一直为了左邻右里坚持开铺，那种温暖是城市里钢筋水泥的楼房里所没有的。小火车开头有猜测到是截肢，只是没想到结尾的父母做得很棒！哼哈二将以为是神话故事，没想到是双生子的，😊。黄焖鸡米饭一家人开开心心过活每一天，真好。小兔子的问题就像所有小朋友都会问的十万个为什么，好可爱。外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅有点伤感，想起我的曾祖母了 (*꒦ິ⌓꒦ີ)
《小火车》：向着光亮，走出阴霾。《蒯老伯的糖水铺》：时代在变，不变的是人情味。《哼将军和哈将军》：“水火不容”的两小兄弟，感叹真实。《外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅》：记忆翻涌，汇成思念。
温馨的七个小故事，丰富的画风让我想起以前看《绘心》的时候，短暂地拯救了最近贫瘠的审美。不煽情不说教不狗血不糊弄，这么正常的片子太难得了，然而排片巨少…
第一次带儿子一起看动画片，七个根据绘本改编的小故事温暖又感人，小时候的感觉又回来了。真实，而又靠近心灵深处的一面，似乎被掀开。天真，无邪，童趣，自由，成长，陪伴，感悟。父母和孩子、亲人之间感情深厚。
看预告片的时候，明亮、温馨、治愈的画风就令人眼前一亮。看了正片，果然没有失望，7个短片取材于原创绘本，整个画面色彩饱和度很高，融合了水墨，水彩，剪纸等不同表现形式，从不同角度展现了关于家，关于爱，关于成长的故事。每部短片都是讲述普通人的故事，特别能引起人的共鸣。
这片儿还挺好看的，画面很唯美，故事平常又动人，缓缓的入心的那种感觉[呲牙][呲牙] 那我也来个喜欢的故事排名吧。1.小兔子的问题，2.萤火虫女孩，3.外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅，4.蒯老伯的糖水铺，5.哼将军与哈将军，6.小火车，7.翼娃子的星期天
今天打卡了中国首部绘本动画电影《向着明亮那方》的点映场，就如介绍中所讲的，照亮童年，为爱发光，七个导演取材原创的绘本改变了七个短篇，串联起来！用了旁白的介绍引出故事。有古有今，有笑有哭，特别有教育意义！大孩子回忆过往，小朋友富有教育意义，一举两得！我们还可以把电影翻译成英语的，相信国外小朋友也会喜欢😊
希望有更多这类画风的国产动画
排片量少得可怜，有限的场次都排在工作日，且不约而同在饭点。在假期即将来临之际总算赶上了本市的最后一个场次。整个慈溪该不会就我一个人在看这么温暖的片子吧。
虽然有的故事有些“个人”。但是看到不同画风不同地域的方言就觉得太棒了。
