I had no idea it was this far along. IMDb claims that they're in test screenings now, even.

I love the casting. I don't think you could find anyone better to play Arthur than Martin Freeman. Mos Def is an ... original choice. I think I remember hearing that previously and being bummed about it, but the clips on the trailer waylay those issues. He seems good. And I definitely hadn't heard about Sam Rockwell as Zaphod. Or Bill Nighy or Stephen Fry.

I also didn't realize it's based on a real Douglas Adams screenplay. Very cool.

I'm excited.
