10 Times Doctor Who Appeared In Movies

9. Looney Tunes: Back In Action

Right before Russell T Davies and Robert Shearman brilliantly reintroduced the Daleks in the 2005 revival, they appeared on the Hollywood stage in the 2003 live-action/animation hybrid Looney Tunes: Back In Action.

Appearing during a scene where Marvin the Martian unleashes a group of "illegal aliens" that are being held in Area 52, the Daleks scream their signature catchphrase while attempting to obliterate Bugs and the gang.

These Dalek props are actually the same ones used in the 1960s Peter Cushing Dr. Who movies, which is why they look authentic, but also oddly outdated compared to their surroundings.

According to an online rumour, it was actor Steve Martin (who plays the movie's villain) who insisted that the Daleks appear in this scene, due to being a massive Whovian. Definitely take that with a pinch of salt though.
