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

Looking for some stories?

Probably, but I don't think they will.

It'll probably be some up-and-coming actor, recognisable but not quite A-list yet.

Someone like Ryan Reynolds, probably.

I think that's the best I can hope for.

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

So basically Six?

Edit: Not saying it'd be Reynolds. But someone on that level: only just started to become recognisable and mainstream.

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.

As I said, just get Ralph Fiennes in the role.

Nah, it's going to be a twentysomething actor, thirty at the oldest. Most Americans aren't familiar with the older Doctors.

I have a feeling the Doctor himself would be a random pick, while the supporting cast will be filled with familiar faces.

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?)

Samuel L. Motherfucking Jackson must appear in this movie. I don't care how. Just do it.

I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serial

Well, at least this wouldn't be the first time 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.

Five words for GREAT JUSTICE:

Robin Williams as The Doctor. Keep him somewhere in the Patch Adams performance mode, and he could be great.
