Let’s start this “Doctor Who” article with the following: Kevin Bacon was never considered for the part of Matt Smith’s replacement or the 12th Doctor, but he’s really had some fun with it. The “rumor” (if you can even call it that) regarding the actor taking on the iconic role first began courtesy of him […]
Just in case you were worried that Matt Smith was never going to take the time in order to speak out personally about his exit from “Doctor Who,” he has now done that and then some. Even though the actor is currently on location in Detroit shooting another project, he still found the time to […]
For a brief period of time, it appeared to some as though the BBC was going to pull a rabbit (or a TARDIS?) out of their “Doctor Who” hat, but now, you better prepare yourself for time to move very slowly as you wait for the network to make a key casting decision. It’s going […]
Welcome to the world of more random “Doctor Who” casting rumors! We’re going to approach these names with the same grain of salt that we approached much of the previous ones with. It’s hard to really believe any of these casting rumors given the track record and the precedent that already exist for these sort […]
Is it possible that we could end up seeing a complete and utter surprise when it comes to the “Doctor Who” casting for season 8? Sure. As a matter of fact, it probably will be. We’ve said time and time again that whoever lands this gig is not going to be crazy enough to scoop […]
While Jenna-Louise Coleman is seemingly staying on board “Doctor Who” for season 8 (unlike her co-star Matt Smith), she is still looking elsewhere when it comes to taking other acting jobs. Take, for example, the new announcement that she is joining “The Americans” star Matthew Rhys in the three-part BBC serial “Death Comes to Pemberley,” […]
John Hurt may be playing a super-secretive role as “The Doctor” (or at least one in name, but not in spirit) in the upcoming 50th anniversary special for “Doctor Who,” but it may be safe now to say not to expect him to stick around much longer than that. Why? The actor has scored himself […]
Well, it is official: We are really no closer at all to finding out the 12th Doctor on “Doctor Who” than we were a week ago. The tabloids have actually run out of names that the BBC are seriously “considering,” probably because the people who are actually being looked at are smart enough to not […]
While there were some pretty intense rumors coming out last week all about who could be playing the part of the 12th Doctor on “Doctor Who,” this weekend has been far quieter on the casting front. To us, this largely just means one thing: no announcement is particularly imminent, so the producers are focusing more […]
We really don’t have any problem at all with the idea of Dame Helen Mirren starring in “Doctor Who,” mostly because she’s fantastic, but why in the world is everyone talking about her being the 12th Doctor, when there is no way in the world that this is actually going to happen? Our thinking is […]
