Please, not Ryan Reynolds. He would play the character as an unlikeable jerk who's superior to everyone else.

It's not over. Not yet.Jason Statham! Uh...no.
Benedict Cumberbatch! Eh, probably not, people would say he was just doing Sherlock all over again.
Ooh, I know! Christopher Eccleston. Yeah, that would be cool.
He's like fire and ice and rage. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the centre of time. Rory punched him in the face.If they followed my idea of making it a prequel, age wouldn't be a problem. (He's like 5,000 years old, right? Why cover just 50 of those years?)

I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serial"WHERE IS MY SONIC SCREWDRIVER?!?!?"

Looking for some stories?Well, at least this wouldn't be the first

a non-canon-to-the-series film will have been released.
Unfortunately, with all due respect to Peter Cushing, those films were dreadful.
With cannon shot and gun blast smash the alien. With laser beam and searing plasma scatter the alien to the stars.
Respect the Red Right Hand
Five words for GREAT JUSTICE:
Robin Williams as The Doctor. Keep him somewhere in the Patch Adams performance mode, and he could be great.

I want Movie!Doctor to be like Nine. 60% Tranquil Fury, 30%, Crazy Awesome. and 10% Cloud Cuckoolander.

Considering how well-known Doctor Who is, I'd say they could get away with casting an unknown.
