Matt Smith Doctor Who Exit On The Cards?

Matt Smith has said that he is eager to establish himself in Hollywood, throwing his future in Doctor Who in doubt.

The actor has suggested that he may try out for acting roles in Los Angeles once filming on the next series of the long-running BBC show is complete.

He told VH1: "I've got another year of Doctor Who, but then I'm certainly going to come and give it a shot. [I'd like to] come and hang out in LA."

Smith had told the Radio Times in August that he was unsure when he would quit the sci-fi series, saying at the time: "There's no break from [the show]. It's a conveyor belt of things to do but it does get lighter. That said, I'm being creative and challenged and, you gotta pay the bills."

Doctor Who returns to BBC One in December for a festive special.
