She stated that she knew a lot more about acting now than she did back then when she was a wee child.
Karen Gillan also speculated about a Doctor Who film but stated that it was unlikely to ever happen. The actor predicted that the movie would never get past TV executives. Karen even recalled the time when popular actor Jonny Depp was supposed to play the iconic Time Lord.
She stated that there is always talk about a Doctor Who film. Karan Gillan added that Jonny Depp was going to play the role of The Doctor, but the movie never reached the production phase and was something that was conceived as an idea a long time ago. The actor then said that the reason the movie would never come to fruition was due BBC, who would never let such a movie be made as they considered the Doctor Who IP to be the flagship show.
