** Fox tried to get a big-name American star as well to play the Doctor. They approached Creator/HarrisonFord (who turned them down flat as he wasn't interested in doing TV), Creator/JimCarrey (who turned them down as he had never seen any ''Doctor Who'' episodes and feared that fans of the series would revolt at the obvious StuntCasting), and Creator/TomHanks (who ''was'' a fan of the show and [[RuleofThree turned them down]] as he believed it was not right that a non-Brit was playing a quintessentially British character).
