Rumors have been swirling at the possibility of a "Doctor Who" movie for a while now. But when no announcement was made at San Diego Comic-Con in August, many fans have accepted that the series may be limited to the small screen.

Well, Russell T. Davies, the man who has already stepped down as showrunner for the series, has revealed that he would love to take The Doctor to the big screen.

"I'd like to give it a whirl," he told the The Coventry Telegraph. "Television is always first and foremost in my mind because I genuinely love it. It's what I relax with. And not just relax with. I find it challenging. Fascinating."

Back in August, rumors were everywhere that a big announcement would be made at Comic-Con, leading to the idea that a big screen adventure was in the cards. And, with David Tennant poised to regenerate into Matt Smith, there was even speculation that any big screen adventures would involve Tennant as a form of "lost" adventure. Unfortunately, however, no such announcement was made and the bulk of the BBC panel was geared up to promoting the remaining specials.

Additionally, Davies also revealed that while his work on "Doctor Who" has been an overwhelming success, it has also ruined something for him – the ability to work on other family-based shows. Why? Nothing will ever compare to "Doctor Who."

"I think the only place to go is something more nine o'clock-ish, more adult, more intimate," he said. "I was offered the other day a 13-part, family-orientated, seven o'clock series - and I thought, I can't, because I've done the best one."

Of course, with a desire to do more post-watershed material and reports of the BBC's interest in continuing "Torchwood" for another season, Davies could find himself writing more adult material again whilst staying firmly rooted within the Whoniverse.

The final episodes produced under Davies will air over the festive period on both BBC One and BBC America before Season 5 commences under the watchful eyes of Steve Moffatt.
