Please let this be a rumor...
Johnny Depp rumored to star in Doctor Who big-budget film
Johnny Depp as a lizard with an identity crisis? That we can get behind. But Johnny Depp as a Time Lord ... that we're not so sure of.
And yet that's what we might be seeing on the big screen a few years from now if the info uncovered by tor.com is correct.
An article at pubarticles presented the project as fact and reportedly passed on the following news:
Long-time producer of the television series Russell T. Davies reported that the reason he moved on from the show was due to the opportunity to transform the Doctor to the big screen. "Bringing the Who franchise to the theaters is a regeneration for the character beyond the usual one. A theatrical release has a greater range and can reach millions of more people than just the fans. There will be brand new concepts and the film will be just as adventurous, scary and humorous as the television programme. But none of us working the film will forget what makes the character great and interesting and the long-time fans will not be disappointed because yes, the Daleks make an appearance."

This is all kinds of WRONG! Someone please, get Doctor Who away from RTD.
As someone said: EXTERMINATE!
And uhm...RTD...the Daleks appearing will not keep me from being disappointed. The fact that YOU want to be in charge of the movie is disappointing enough. I'm glad you brought it back, but it's time for you to step away - NOW!
