10 Actors Who Appeared In Star Wars And Doctor Who

10. Felicity Jones

Oscar-nominee Felicity Jones tends to shy away from huge blockbuster flicks like Star Wars, largely opting for meatier dramatic roles in films like The Theory of Everything, A Monster Calls, and On the Basis of Sex.

However, in 2016, she dipped her toes in the genre pool in a major way, delivering a solid performance as the tough-as-nails Jyn Erso in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Considering that Jyn was obliterated by the Death Star at the end of that movie, Jones' first Star Wars feature was also probably her last - although considering that fellow deceased Rebel Cassian Andor is getting his own show later this year, perhaps we'll see Jones reprise her role in a similar Disney Plus prequel one day.

Her Whoniverse character fared much better, with Jones starring as cockney jewel thief Ada Mullins in the 2008 episode The Unicorn and the Wasp, opposite David Tennant's Tenth Doctor and Catherine Tate as his companion, Donna Noble.

Initially going by the name Robina Redmond in order to mask her real identity, Mullins was one of the suspects in the murder of Professor Peach, but was ultimately cleared when the true culprit was uncovered by the Doctor and Agatha Christie: a giant, alien wasp. Yeah. It's Doctor Who, just go with it.
