Matt Smith, The 11th Doctor Who
Matt Smith has been tapped to replace David Tennant in 2010 as Doctor Who.
Lead writer and Executive Producer Steven Moffat said "The Doctor is a very special part, and it takes a very special actor to play him. You need to be old and young at the same time, a boffin and an action hero, a cheeky schoolboy and the wise old man of the universe. As soon as Matt walked through the door and blew us away with a bold and brand new take on the Time Lord, we knew we had our man. 2010 is a long time away but rest assured the Eleventh Doctor is coming - and the universe has never been so safe."
The BBC posted an interview with Matt.
I am not sure how I feel about his casting. He will be the youngest Doctor, replacing Peter Davison who is one of my favorite Doctors. I trust Steven Moffat. He has made a lot of great decisions about the series, and I trust that he will do what is best for the series.
