Doctor Who producers are reportedly trying to convince Chris Evans to make a guest appearance in the next series of the hit BBC One sci-fi show.
The radio DJ would star as the Devil in an episode called The Satan Pit, when the show returns for a second series next year, the Daily Star claims.
Evans’ estranged wife Billie Piper already stars as Doctor Who’s sidekick Rose Tyler in the series but, as they remain on good terms, the paper claims that his appearance as the Devil wouldn’t be a hellish experience for the pair.
An unnamed source told the Daily Star: “We’ve already got some great celebrities lined up for the next series, but having Chris Evans would be the icing on the cake.”
“Having him as Satan would be a hoot and we’re sure he’d relish the role. And we know Billie would find it a giggle.”
The Daily Star has previously claimed that Buffy the Vampire star Anthony Head is set to appear in the next series of Doctor Who.
Chris Evans is Satan. No, that’s too easy. 🙂 Can Evans act? I’ve only ever seen or heard him as a presenter.
Exactly! Maybe Billie gave him some acting tips when they were married.
