David Tennant's Current Projects

Broadchurch
David Tennant completed filming the second series of Broadchurch in October. It follows the great success and BAFTA wins of the first series which was broadcast in the UK in March and April 2013. It has also subsequently been shown in countries all over the world.
The read-through for the first episodes of Series Two was on Thursday 22nd May 2014 and joining David and Olivia Colman were Arthur Darvill, Andrew Buchan and Jodie Whittaker from the first series, plus new cast members Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Charlotte Rampling, James D’Arcy and Eve Myles.
Chris Chibnall has again written the series and it started being broadcast on Monday 5th January 2015 on ITV. It was also broadcast each week in Ireland, Norway, New Zealand and Canada. It is currently being broadcast BBC America in the US, as well as in Australia, South Africa and Belgium. ITV have confirmed that David and Olivia will return for a third series.

A.K.A. Jessica Jones
David Tennant will play the main villain in Marvel's upcoming Netflix series A.K.A. Jessica Jones. David will play Zebediah Killgrave (who is also known as The Purple Man).
In the Marvel comics, Kilgrave can produce pheromones which give him the power to control people’s minds as long as he’s physically nearby. He also can recover from severe injuries very quickly and is, quite literally, purple. However it has not been announced yet how closely Marvel’s series will stick to the comic version of the character.
A.K.A. Jessica Jones is scheduled for a 13 episode series and will premiere on Netflix sometime later in 2015.
Jessica Jones will be played by Krysten Ritter and Mike Coulter will play the character Luke Cage. The series will be filmed in New York and all the episodes will be released together.
Filming started in New York City during the week commencing Monday 2nd February.

I Feel Fine
David Tennant will appear in the Glasgow-set thriller I Feel Fine which is aiming to shoot in October 2015.
Dominic West and Stacy Martin will also appear it and Billy Boyd, Carice Van Houten, Sharleen Spiteri and Gary Lewis are also attached to the project.
The synopsis for I Feel Fine is:
'Set in the unforgiving streets of 1980s Glasgow the film will chart the story of teenager Jonny White who becomes embroiled in crime and drug addiction.
When a bounty is placed on his head for a crime he didn’t commit, White must get to the safe haven of rehab in order to stay alive.'
David will not play the lead role so it is not clear how large his role will be in the project.
