John Barrowman will stay on Torchwood for seven years!

December 24th, 2010 by Lisa McGarry. No comments

John Barrowman has promised he will film ‘Torchwood’ for at least seven more years.

The Scottish actor has revealed the extra-terrestrial investigation sci-fi series has been picked up by the Starz network in the US and will now be a joint production between the American broadcaster and the BBC.

He said: “I have turned down a load of other shows to make Torchwood. We’ll be filming it in Los Angeles as it’s now a collaboration between the BBC and the Starz Network in America.

“They’re planning to make it for the next seven years. So I’ll be spending six months a year in Hollywood and six back in the UK.”

John – who has previously appeared in ‘Desperate Housewives’ – says he is delighted he can continue to play Captain Jack in the spin-off of British show ‘Dr Who’ and isn’t worried about ageing on screen.

He explained to The Scottish Sun newspaper: “Captain Jack turns into the hideous creature The Face Of Boe in the fullness of time so he won’t always be good- looking anyway.

“But I’ll keep playing Jack as long as I can. One thing you’ll never find me doing is going for plastic surgery.”
