On a panel at L.A. Comic Con 2025 on 27 September 2025 hosted by Tiffany Babb for Studio Chat, David Tennant and Billie Piper discussed some of their favourite Doctor Who memories and answered fan questions.

Tiffany Babb repeated to both actors a very interesting question from the audience regarding the possibility of a Doctor Who movie.

Tiffany Babb: Did do we foresee a movie coming out? And would you play the characters and return to to film a movie?

Billie Piper: Yes.

David Tennant: Sure.

BP: I always was pitching for that. Where’s the film?

DT: Where’s the movie?

BP: And we’re the ones. (They both laugh)

BP: I loved it that people went to see the last Doctor Who episode in the cinema.

DT: Yeah, yeah.

BP: I just love that. I would love the Doctor Who experience on the big screen. Um, and it would be. I mean they’re sort of like films anyway. Um, but yeah, I’d do that, wouldn’t you?

DT: Oh, for sure. Yeah. We’re available.

Both Tennant and Piper starred together as the Tenth Doctor and his companion Rose Tyler in Doctor Who Series 2. Billie Piper later returned to the programme both as Rose at the end of Series 4 and as the sentient interface of a weapon called The Moment in the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special The Day of the Doctor.

David Tennant more recently played the Fourteenth Doctor in the three Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials in 2023 and Billie Piper made a surprise appearance in the 2025 Doctor Who episode The Reality War as a seeming incarnation of the Doctor after Ncuti Gatwa.

With the future of the Doctor Who television programme currently in limbo awaiting a decision from Disney, a Doctor Who film sounds very appealing.
