Doctor Who: 5 Actresses Who Could Play The 12th Doctor

1. Emma Watson

emma.watson Watson is the youngest actress to make the list. In her relatively short time as an actress, Emma Watson has proven that she has some pretty amazing acting chops. She€™s young enough to enjoy a longer tenure as the Doctor, and her taking up the Doctor€™s mantle would draw plenty of Harry Potter fans into the fold. Watson as the Doctor could bring back some of the doe-eyed naivety of the Tenth and early eleventh regenerations, and she could definitely make for a more lighthearted tone for the series. At the same time, whether on film or in real life, Watson comes across as mature beyond her years, a quality the Doctor definitely exudes. At this point in time, we€™ve yet to see the Doctor portrayed as a woman. But whether or not that will change remains to be seen. We know of at least one Time Lord, the Corsair, who did switch genders between regenerations, so it could very well be a possibility for the Doctor. And as Russell T Davies has said, €œthe more it€™s talked about, the more likely it is to happen.€ What€™s your take? Any other actresses you€™d like to see as the next Doctor? Let us know in the comments section below.
