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.
不过还是觉得此片要好过第一部的，你以为是为了可爱的小妹妹？不，是要告诉你要善待狗狗！
盲人老兵的二周目，解锁支线任务拯救小女孩，解锁npc双难模式，地图增加新地点反派老巢
不同于第1部的惊悚片，本片完完全全就成了一部动作犯罪片。不再有在黑暗中，不知对方来自何处的惊悚感。取而代之是盲人大爷怒干毒贩的畅快感。第1部伤了几条人命，第2部为救小女孩付出所有。盲人大爷已经完成了对自己的救赎。小女孩亲自手刃蛇蝎心肠的父母，看着也非常痛快。但本片感觉不应该叫屏住呼吸了。叫这个《这个盲人大爷不太冷》更合适，如果还有第3部的话，那必是烂片，所以就此结束整部系列挺好。
男主神勇威武。毒贩丧尽天良。脏辫良心未泯。小女孩如愿以偿。狗嘉宾神来之笔。
m21234：狗还是有情感辨识的。还不错，水波纹一段，绝妙，还留点人性。
Don't Breathe 2似乎找不到确切的续集意义，仿佛剧本的缘由更像是来自于前作Stephen Lang的受欢迎，然而从恐怖到惊悚，反派到反英雄的过渡，单靠Stephen Lang和这强行续命的剧本是完全不够的。
电闸室一躺，水洼听声辨位太牛比。作为续集算合格
两星都给影片节奏。剧情...有点恶心。这个孩子的人设真的恶心的...算了，还是给一星吧。这个电影的主题是弑父？小男孩害死自己爹，女主害死老板。
飙车戏比不过速度与激情
相比第一部来说，惊悚紧张感有所削弱，不过该有的形式感都有了，但是！最没被削弱的地方还是有的！就是“小凤”开头潜行那段，当时看的我直呼“超越寂静之地！” 据说是换了导演，所以没有第一部百分百的内味，不过呢，这一部的爽味是很爽的，不拖沓不搞有的没的！单刀直入和疾速追杀异曲同工（没办法现在很多片都走这个路子了，难免会联想起来。）
性转低配happyend版《这个杀手不太冷》
这续集咋整成navy seal宣传片了？退伍瞎眼老海豹吊打上门寻女的毒爹（应该给毒爹安排个贝雷帽身份跟瞎老头对打撒？）跟第一部里青少年欺负瞎老汉一比剧情编的也是离奇，不辞辛苦上门寻女竟然是为了取活心移植？！这是假的爹妈吧？如果是真亲爹妈，杀自己唯一的未成年女儿就为给自己老婆换心？啊这，哪个“人才”脑洞这么大编成真·人间恶魔剧本的？ps, 人家seal有好几个队，也不是所有seal都牛的不是人啊。army的特种潜水作战部队，air force的PJ，marine都有自己的强侦察连了，很多都是精英全能特种部队啊。有理由怀疑navy赞助此片做广告了。最后瞎子亲爹捅死瞎子养爹，女儿再捅死瞎子亲爹，说明还是养恩大过天啊。第三部看来是拍不了了
看完就两个感受，一个是老头教女有方，一个是老头实惨，第一部被人谋财害命，这一部就直接害命了。总的来说还是爽片max的，几个小设计非常有意思，不过爽是爽了，却也没有“屏住呼吸”的惊悚感了。就跟《人类清除计划》一样，小环境构造的压迫力一旦脱离了狭窄空间，效果是会减半的。
太简单粗暴了，根本没有“屏住呼吸”的悬念紧张感，猛男配少女配狗狗，机器人写的狗血剧本。史蒂芬朗真老了。
开车是我，打架是我，要你这样的男朋友有什么用？
除了角色还是1那瞎子老头外，根本可以说是另一部独立电影而非续集，而本片也与"恐怖"无缘，单纯就是部瞎侠无双然后自我救赎的动作片，爽一下还行，但远没1好看。(有一个彩蛋)
反派说就该一个人走，自己死的时候还想带一个人。白老板说警察和黑帮一样。影史上可以大叔救萝莉，现在也可以阿姨救鲜肉。一切恰到好处，很棒的电影。
这姑娘不跑偏的话，未来可能是韩国影圈的一面旗。故事很简单，完全靠演员撑起来的一部片子，娴熟的流水线作业，节奏、画面、气氛都是非常成熟的商业电影。
6分，一般一般，如果说美国的童星表演第一，那韩国肯定是第二了。
卧槽！为什么要杀狗啊！！！狗可是她唯一的朋友了！！！真的毫无人性！！！而且老兵到最后都没杀狗，甚至放狗一条生路，这鲜明的对比。亲生父母太可怕了，十个恶人里还是有一个好人的，真不容易。老兵这结局也是必然的，算是为第一部赎罪吧。女孩是挺惨的，认识的人都死了，最后只能孤身一人重新开始，给小女孩拍部电影吧。。。走的时候把狗带上啊喂！！！！
