Am I the only one who thinks he looks like...


Jim Carrey? In my opinion they look pretty similar and his incarnation of the Doctor had some of Jim's mannerisms

You're not the only one, I've noticed a resemblance, too. And they were already compared here: http://cheezburger.com/4574725632

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

David Tennant doesn't look anything like Jim Carrey plus when it comes to acting chops, Jim Carrey has nothing on David. When David did his Doctor's wackiness, he was very good at it. When Jim Carrey does his wackiness in his movies, he was overacting imo.

David Tennant is a very good actor and great thespian.
Jim Carrey is only a hack.

I'm talking about physical appearance

Sorry, I'm really sorry... They both don't look anything alike at all.

I think David Tennant looks a lot like young Anthony Perkins.
Cou nls see him doing a Hitchcock-type film.

reply

You're right.

I haven't thought of that, but you really hit on the bullseye.

As far as David doing a Hitchcock-type suspense film, he'd be excellent in it.

Great idea!

And, IMHO, a far better one to anticipate than having the uber talented DT tied up in some generic action hero comic book role.

Don't be daft! At night, from behind and about 100 yards away, they are bloody near identical.

But seriously, Tennant (as he looked in Broadchurch) and baseball star Matt Carpenter could be brothers, or at least close cousins.
