David Tennant is ready to move his things from the TARDIS to the Starship Enterprise. The Doctor Who and Good Omens star revealed that his next dream project would be a role on Star Trek. CBS All Access, time to make it so?
In a recent Reddit AMA (as reported by Syfy Wire), Tennant was asked what major franchise he’d want to cross off of his bucket list next. He’s already made waves as the Tenth Doctor in Doctor Who, a Marvel villain in Netflix’s Jessica Jones, and a sexy demon in Neil Gaiman’s Good Omens. But there’s one major series he said he’s still keen on joining.
“Star Trek would be great,” Tennant replied. “After talking to George Takei for the podcast I’ve got a bit immersed in it.”
Tennant is referring to an upcoming episode of his interview podcast, David Tennant Does a Podcast With..., where he chatted with Star Trek star George Takei about his time on the sci-fi series as the legendary Enterprise helmsman Hikaru Sulu, as well Takei’s experience growing up in a Japanese internment camp. Tennant praised their conversation during his AMA, but it was also exciting to see him yearning to be part of the Star Trek family. Because that sounds... perfect.
