Interesting yes - but will it work as well as the 70's radio series of the 80's TV series?
Cast looks good:
Steven Fry seems to fit well as the voice of the book
Martin Freeman seems like he can do a pretty good job as the straight, but confused man - so he should be able to be a reasonable Arthur.
Alan Rickman is a perfect Marvin!
I just hope it stands up to the rigours of comparison! Either way it'll surely be one of the biggest movies of the year!
