A Doctor makes his way to ‘Star Wars’

Santiago Felipe/Getty ImagesAnd by Doctor, we mean a former Time Lord from Doctor Who. Rumour has it (or at least several outlets have confirmed) that Matt Smith will be joining the cast of Star Wars: Episode IX. At the moment, we don’t know what role he’ll be playing but as Wired points out, he seems fit to be a First Order officer. And we can’t say we disagree. Smith will be joining other franchise newcomers like Dominic Monaghan, Keri Russell, and Richard E. Grant. And of course, we’ll get to see him with returning stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, and Oscar Isaac. Episode IX is currently in production and will be coming out in December 2019.
