Catherine Zeta-Jones has been tipped to star in a movie version of cult sci-fi series Doctor Who – by the man credited with reviving the show.
Writer Russell T. Davies brought the British show back to TV screens in 2005 after a nine-year absence.
BBC bosses were recently rumored to be planning a big screen version of the hit show. And Davies insists that Zeta-Jones would be perfect for the role as the Timelord’s assistant.
He says, “Being from Wales myself, I’d love to have Catherine Zeta-Jones as a companion for the Doctor.”
The writer also insists that the series’ current lead actor David Tennant would be the first choice for a Doctor Who movie.
He adds, “To have anyone else would be inconceivable.”
Davies is due to end his tenure on the show in 2009.

Catherine Zeta-Jones’ beloved grandmother has died. She was 91.
Zeta Jones, who the actress was named after, passed away at her daughter Valerie’s home in the family’s native Swansea, Wales earlier this week. She is the mother of Zeta-Jones’ businessman father Dai and is believed to have suffered from ill health in her final days.
The Hollywood star is expected to fly back from Bermuda, where she now lives with husband Michael Douglas and their two children, to attend Jones’ funeral.
And her death has left her close-knit family devastated.
A family friend says, “Zeta had been unwell for a short while and unfortunately had to miss a family birthday party recently. The family have been hit very hard by it because she was so loved by them all.”

Catherine Zeta Jones snubs romantic breaks with her actor husband Michael Douglas in favor of a relaxed game of golf.
The Chicago actress is a huge fan of the laid-back sport, and credits it with keeping her relationship with Douglas in check – as they have time to catch up properly on the green.
But the star insists she can annoy her superstar partner, as she is too eager to pass on her golfing tips.
She says, “He listens to me when I give him tips – but if he’s having a bad day he pretty much tells me to shut up. But I use the time to catch up properly with him – golf is great way to spend time together and we have a good chat.”
And the star can’t imagine life without her hobby – insisting it makes her think straight.
She explains, “It clears my mind and I’m not thinking about anything except that little white ball. I also go to the driving range and hit balls like they were going out of fashion.”
