Actors that have been in both Star Wars and Doctor Who

13) Simon Pegg

Simon Pegg’s resume is a collection of geek titles. He made his name in comedy and satire with films like Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz. He also has roles in Mission Impossible, Ready Player One, and The Dark Crystal prequel to his credit. Pegg joined the cast of JJ Abrams 2009 Star Trek reboot as Montgomery Scott.

Pegg played an antagonist called The Editor in the Christopher Eccleston story The Long Game. He also was in the Paul McGann story Invaders From Mars for Big Finish audio adventures.

Pegg provided the voice of Dengar in The Clone Wars, which also puts him on the list of actors in both Star Wars and Star Trek. But that’s a list for another day…

While his face was hidden, Pegg did portray and do the voice of Unkar Plutt in The Force Awakens. This puts him on yet another list of actors with multiple Star Wars roles.
