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.
看之前都没想到这么搞笑hhhh以为就是个狗尾续貂，没想到导演很好的内涵了华纳，真的好敢吐槽啊xs 成功的用这部烂作品让大家恰了饭还阻止了其他的续集产生（也许吧）挺好的啊，成功完成了甲方给的任务。说实在的华纳想赚这个IP的钱还不如搞个重映呢。 想看猫客帝国！
解释太多，废话太多，前面一个半小时才进入正题，打斗敷衍，毫无美感，最后两人起飞的时候看出一丝…凤凰传奇的感觉？总的来说像是赶工之作，要不是基努里维斯人气太炸，估计矩阵也不会重启，为情怀看看吧，
噗了，确实有段釜山行1，后面崔尼蒂觉醒后二人被追杀那里还有段韩片《英雄》（姜东元异能使人自杀其中一小节是大家不犹豫地跳楼，因为设定是跳真人，震撼力远超跳被黑入的数据，有趣的是姜东元也演了釜山行II），当年酷炫的东西，放到现在都觉得不震撼了。本集男主好弱，一路被追打，我只好强行给他个理由，因为他是重生体，但女主醒后却很快升级了………所以说到底还是男主资质不行吧？噗。时间控制那段还不错，可否说它灵感来自于日本动画《死神bleach》？？结尾崔尼蒂虐分析师虽然爽，但狗血，而且好一通zzzz的说教。结尾最多只配3.5。
好家伙，拉娜·沃卓斯基花了华纳这么多钱就为了亲自给华纳比一个大大的中指，还挺牛逼？？？
3.5星 没期待的那么好看。开头的“这一切是真是假，是疯了还是的确是真实”还算蛮磨人的，感觉看完这部电影以后有许多精分要放弃治疗了。视觉体验上没什么新东西，通过粒子允许虚拟人进入现实的表现方法稍微有点不尽如人意。飞不起来的Neo还是让人笑了一下，就像只肥猫努力蹦跶了一下一样。
一场游戏一场梦。
当商业爽片看还是很不错的，超清IMAX版缸中之脑的画面非常震撼。此外剪辑得也很刺激，当然用的套路还是几十年前的。主演确实老了，基努里维斯比年轻时候演技好了，有种淡定的滑稽感。
1、整体有点后退，不似前几集脑洞大开，动作场面多且大；2、尼奥除了挡子弹的老套路应该是学会了中国人的气功，以其运力掀翻车辆导弹不在话下；3、整体搏斗打怪就像是打僵尸；4、最后居然是老情人会飞，然后嗖飞走了，再然后，两口子应该是啪啪啪后都会飞了。然后西安和团队就莫名了！哎！黑客帝国到此结束！
面对系统性的trolling，唯一的抵抗只有坚守阵地。
电影有一块吐槽黑客帝国ip整整吐槽了15分钟，也太招笑了，真的太好笑了，边看边笑，就有一种我没办法我被迫恰烂钱，但是我还是恰了爱咋咋地的感觉 太欢乐了，为了这个欢乐我要给这电影五颗星，哈哈哈哈哈
尼尔和崔妮蒂的连结在新世界里被利用并沦为情感劳工(literally)，但沃卓斯基还是执拗地去强调左翼式的爱与团结的必要性。
中年危机英雄迟暮的neo，很多熟面孔，增加了演员种族多样性，说话太多以至于没有以前那么酷了
（1.0/10）一星的续集电影，五星的后现代行为艺术，观看过程欢快得飞起。华纳居然会把这片放出来没有大规模重拍也是迷惑。拉娜带着一队主创时时刻刻把“我们不想拍，但是我们做不了主啊”挂在脸上。当初是谁推动着立项来着。这片的鉴赏电影工作者是做不了了，交给文化研究人士吧。
。。。湊合看比較好，當初就沒什麼期待。導演本人都已經吐槽一遍了，就不用多說什麼了。
依然有一些还算不错的场景设计和特效画面，但并没有出现特别新鲜的内容。只有一场戏，一群人从高楼上跳下往地上摔的场景看起来还挺酷的。
1.如果这是沃斯基导演自己审核的剧本，那我只能说，她的审美和思维还停留在二十年前，套娃剧情，你在20年前拍，大家会觉得很新鲜。拜托都2021年了，尼奥是一个游戏设计师，在设计黑客帝国三部曲，最后发现这个世界是假的，这样的套娃剧本太老套了。
看他们唠嗑打架并不觉得很差可能这就是所谓的降低预期结果
面对系统性的trolling，唯一的抵抗只有坚守阵地。
重要的不是谁会加入或回归，而是沃卓斯基姐妹对于这个不断进化的科技社会又有了什么惊为天人的新思考。
黑客帝国4里谈论电影和游戏，很有当代精神，也是一种坦白。黑客帝国1是一定程度上超前于时代的作品。但是过了这么多年，在无数题材相近、水平有高有低的电影和游戏的泛滥冲击下，这个系列拿不出新东西重塑自己当初的超然地位了。
