Having made his TV debut nearly forty years ago in the 1977 Doctor Who TV serial “The Invisible Enemy” K9 went on to become one of the most iconic characters from the BBC series. A new look high tech K9 for today’s cinema is being prepared for film stardom. The film “K9-TIMEQUAKE” has been written by one of K9’s original creators; Bob Baker, a renowned writer of classic Doctor Who serials. Bob went on to co-write with Nick Park the Oscar and Bafta winning Wallace & Gromit series of film shorts as well as the feature film The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. The new K9 will be appearing in a multi-million dollar movie which promises to be a great action adventure set in deep space. The film will be full of dashing heroes and heroines, androids, monstrous aliens and an ultimate foe who will also be familiar to Doctor Who fans everywhere; the megalomaniac OMEGA. The film is to be a UK co-production with exteriors filmed overseas and studio work planned for the UK. K9 is the perfect character to star in a movie with a whole new bunch of action heroes making this a home grown Star Wars come Guardians of the Galaxy style cinema must see film. The film is currently slated for release in 2017 which will be K9’s fortieth birthday! It may be an odd idea but let's not forget that Guardians of the Galaxy wasn't exactly a normal premise for a film and look how that turned out. With the right script and director, this film could turn out to be something special. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGODalekbuster523 Posted October 24, 2015 Interesting. Looking forward to hear more about it. This could definately work. I think it all hinges on whether it's a direct continuation of the TV series. I can't see many going to see it if it is due to the show's bad reputation. Otherwise, I'll be shocked if it doesn't do well enough to warrant a sequel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGODalekbuster523 Posted November 3, 2015 Huh. K9 Movie before Theatrical DW movie. Certainly an interesting move... I suspect this film would never see the light of day if the BBC owned K9 and not Bob Baker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
