joined to talk about movies, with the first Jumanji reboot/sequel photo up for discussion. Starring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan, it got us thinking about the latter's stint on Doctor Who and what other ex-companions have been getting up to since leaving the good Doctor's side...

Karen Gillan AKA Amy Pond

Since appearing alongside the Doctor, Karen has made a name for herself in Hollywood with roles in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy (and its upcoming sequel), as well as Jumanji AND 2018's Avengers: Infinity War. Impressive!

Noel Clarke AKA Mickey Smith

British actor Noel has directed and written a handful of movies (including the recent Brotherhood). He's also appeared in Star Trek Into Darkness, which is arguably his most high profile role to date.

Jenna Coleman AKA Clara Oswald

Even though Jenna waved buh-bye to the good doctor, her career has continued to thrive. Since then she's only gone and landed a part of the actual Queen for ITV's drama Victoria. It's pretty popular, FYI.

Are you stubborn? Do you eat with you mouthful? You are so Queen Victoria hun!

James Corden AKA Craig Owens

The star may have only had a few appearances, but he's since gone on to crack America, which is mad. Not only has he been in a bunch of movies like Begin Again and Into the Woods, he's done Broadway and is now the host of The Late Late Show with James Corden Stateside.
