The people behind the casting of Fast Six need a raise. They went after Jason Statham and he said no. So they went and got Gina Carano, then they locked up Michelle Rodriguez and now they’re in talks with Doctor Who himself.

If you don’t know David Tennant, here’s a quick primer. He’s a pretty excellent character actor with some awesome screen presence. Oh, and he’s probably had the best run of any actor to fill the shoes of BBC’s long-running science fiction show Doctor Who.

You may have recognized him in smaller roles in films like Harry Potter and Fright Night. Check out a couple clips of him, in his element, below and wonder what purpose could he serve in Fast Six, which shoots in the United Kingdom. [Latino Review via Ain't It Cool]
