John Barrowman

The World Doesn't End Because the Doctor Dances

John Barrowman Sounds Incredibly Sad About Not Being Asked To Join Doctor Who’s 50th (So Are We)

We already pretty much knew John Barrowman was not going to reprise his role of Captain Jack Harkness for Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary but we have to admit, we were still holding out hope. And we aren’t the only ones.

John Barrowman Reveals He’s Finally Been Asked To Participate In The Doctor Who Anniversary, Then Gets Yelled At For It

The last we heard from Torchwood star John Barrowman, he said he was “leaving room” in his schedule for Doctor Who 50th anniversary celebrations but that no one had reached out to him yet. Thankfully, we can report that’s changed. However! The folks who asked him may not be too happy he spilled the beans.

Hello Sweetie

Captain Jack and River Song, Together at Last

If there’s one thing that’s certain about an episode of Doctor Who with both Captain Jack and River Song in it, it’s that it would be 90% made up of absolutely shameless flirting, and 10% made of the Doctor being exasperated. But don’t get crazy yet, Whovians, John Barrowman and Alex Kingston aren’t working together for the first time on Who. They’ll both be appearing on Arrow later this season, Barrowman in his recurring role, and Kingston as (probably) the original Black Canary. Barrowman himself tweeted this picture this weekend.

Hello Sweetie

John Barrowman Is Leaving Room In His Schedule for Doctor Who‘s 50th Anniversary. Your Move, Moffat.

John Barrowman has made no secret of the fact that he’d reprise his Doctor Who role of Captain Jack Harkness “at the drop of a hat.” With the show’s 50th anniversary coming up next year, it looks like the perfect opportunity for the immortal and, er, amorous Captain Jack to make a triumphant return.

But what about Arrow? you might say. John Barrowman’s doing another show now—if there’s a scheduling conflict, surely the show on which he’s a current character comes first!

Not so fast!

The World May Never Know

In Arrow, Barrowman Might be Villian or Savior, Original Character or Not, But He’ll Definitely Be Well Dressed

This picture of John Barrowman smiling at a scorpion brought to you by my love of odd celebrity pictures.

We’ve found out that the CW’s heretofore unimpressive Green Arrow-based series Arrow will also be featuring DC superheroine the Huntress in some first season episodes, and we’ve found out that the show’s creators have plans (however tentative) to include a female version of Speedy, Green Arrow’s sidekick. But it was the announcement of John Barrowman joining the cast of the show that first renewed our interest in the adaptation. Unlike Jessica De Gouw and Huntress, however, we still have no idea who Barrowman is going to be, and he’s not helping.
