PARTING SHOT
FOR NEARLY FIVE YEARS, DAVID TENNANT WAS THE CHARMING LEADING man (or, rather, the charming leading alien) in the popular British scifiseries Doctor Who. Being typecast as the fun-loving doctor can be hard to avoid, and Tennant remained in the role longer than most. But now, more than eight years after leaving the show, he’s been adding more diabolical characters to his résumé: First, the mind-controlling rapist Kilgrave in Netflix’s Jessica Jones, and now a cold-blooded murderer in Bad Samaritan, a horror-thriller that hits theaters May 4.
The latter stars Robert Sheehan (Misfits) as a restaurant valet who robs rich people who entrust him with their cars. This seems genius at first—until Sheehan discovers a kidnapped woman tied up in the home of Tennant’s character, Cale Ehrendreich.
