King of Pop Michael Jackson was reportedly attached to Paramount Pictures’ project Doctor Who in the 1980s, according to a new book.
In Charles Norton’s new book entitled Now On The Big Screen: Unofficial and Unauthorised Guide to Doctor Who at the Cinema, the author claims that Jackson was the studio’s top choice to headline a never-made feature version of BBC’s fan-favourite series Doctor Who.
The book has additionally alleged that Paramount had already prepared another name in mind if the Man in the Mirror hitmaker decided to pass on the offer.
Comedy actor Bill Cosby, who at that time was at the height of his fame for The Cosby Show, was reportedly the studio’s second choice for the lead role.
