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.
这部剧场版《哆啦A梦》除了致敬《星球大战》，靠了下自由意识主旨，简直就是近年最差作品。改编翻拍自老版作品，影片出来结果还是节奏拖的一塌糊涂。所谓“战争”，但“哆啦A梦”系列的创作想象力从来也不在战争戏奇观上，还是在于造梦，在于奇特道具，在于奇思妙想。当初《星球大战》灵感来源黑泽明《战国英豪》，如今再借鉴创作本片，属实是日本二道贩子，出口转内销。创意灵感的枯竭，是这个系列为延续下去，如今不得不去面对的最大困境了。
2022.5.30 晚 欢乐汇
虽然看得我一度睡着，但是茉莉津津有味地看完了。在茉莉身上我总能看到自己的影子，希望你快乐长大~
出木衫：我去上个补习班怎么就错过剧场版了。
翻牌没了当年的味道，除了观众本身，世界形势的变化也导致了这个结局，传统哆啦A梦剧场版真的只适合小孩子了吗？
非常脑洞，又十分小儿科。看这部电影丢了我的耳机
娃问我大雄他们变成巨人为什么不踩了独裁者总部大楼。我说你有没有发现里面很多士兵也不是那么坏呢，有人还帮过他们；还有那个将领也不那么坏呢，失败了以后他说请别杀了我的士兵，吧啦吧啦，解释了一大堆。他好像理解了，然后他说，既然这么多好人，怎么之前还打不过一个独裁者呢？我：额……
哆啦A梦每年的剧场版其实一直没有变，变得是我们，看完真的感慨自己老了，它真的是给孩子看的，而我也意识到自己内心童真那一块也在日渐萎缩，它跟蜡笔小新的剧场版不一样，蜡笔小新很多时候用小新的视角去讲述都是成人世界的故事，哆啦A梦小分队依然是孩童的天马行空，虽然很多主题都很有意义…
1985年同名剧场版重制版，这次重制版加了一个新人物——一个女外星人皮娜 男外星总统的姐姐，跟静香长得很像。重制版情节略有改动，音效、作画可以了 战斗场面燃爆，部分地方音响震得座椅和脚底都能感受到微微振动。开头哆啦A梦一出来就让我感动了，熟悉的味道（ps：由于这次哆啦A梦国语配音不是陈美贞了 所以看的日语）
情怀分吧，小夫不该是那个性格的，这版的剧情实在是看不下去，打败主角的是反派的聪慧，打败反派的却也是反派自己的愚昧，这结局一点说服力都不具备，每年一部的哆啦A梦，真的不想再被消耗情怀了。
闲的没事儿随便看的，感觉交了智商税，是只适合儿童（10岁以下）看的动画片。不知道什么原因前面画面不算很清晰，配音也不好听！内容有点傻，可惜我的十几元钱了。
剧情还行，就是节奏太慢了。现在看哆啦A梦的大部分是成年人了，该与粉丝的成长俱进了。。
3.5。个人不是很喜欢新版删掉了前期拍特摄的部分。新角色是这几部重拍剧场版里最影薄和没意义的。除此之外其它的改编还好，还是比较喜欢。
让人陷入沉思的部分可以说一点都没
新《哆啦A梦：大雄的宇宙小战争》是一次对85版同名剧场版的改编翻拍，电影虽然没有循规蹈矩的去完全复刻原作在主线之外，对原有剧情做出了一定的改编，但遗憾的是，面对原作芝山努导演和藤子·F·不二雄编剧，新的导演编剧完全没有站在巨人肩膀上的能力，生硬的删改破坏了人物情感，使电影反逊于前作。
电影院里的小朋友们看得可真开心呀，快乐童年

我小时候看的大熊这么蠢的嘛？🌚就不用变小能处理的事。非要……没有新的剧情了嘛。奶牛猫是真的惨。末世先杀圣母是对的。
最后，“天赐我们自由”。
想起去年也是这个时候在影院看了《哆啦A梦》，和朋友有說有笑，今年就自己一個人啦，「天賜我們自由」，在廣州街頭溜達。5.28
