David Tennant in talks over Doctor Who film

Actor said to want movie clause in contract

Wednesday, 10 September 2008

David Tennant is apparently in negotiations to play the lead in a Doctor Who flick.

The actor is currently only confirmed to appear in a Christmas episode and four specials next year.

But it is thought David, 37, will agree to make a full fifth series in 2010 if a movie is included in the deal.

‘It looks like the film is going to happen in the next few years,’ a source tells The Sun.

‘For ages, BBC Worldwide held the rights and were planning to make a movie.

'But it got held up and former BBC1 boss Lorraine Heggessey decided to bring back the TV series in 2005.

‘But everyone is keen now and the fans are clamouring.

'Part of David’s conundrum is that he wants to do films, so this looks like it would solve both issues.’

Bosses have reportedly offered David a £1.5million contract.
