He's been a hero in the likes of Doctor Who and Broadchurch and a villain in Jessica Jones, but we don't yet know which direction Dean Devlin's new film, Bad Samaritan will send David Tennant in.

The movie, which Apt Pupil's Brandon Boyce has written, follows two young valets who use their business parking cars for wealthy clients as a cover so they can drive off and rob their houses while they're otherwise occupied. Life is good for the two thieves until – dramatic musical sting – they target the wrong house, a decision that changes their lives forever. Deadline's report doesn't specify what Tennant will play in the film, though we suspect he'll be the wrong party and not one of the two valets...

Devlin is looking to kick off shooting later this year and is finishing off action thriller Geostorm, which should be out next year. Tennant has based-on-truth psychology drama Mad To Be Normal headed our way at some unknown point and has also added his voice to animated movie Chew.
