Matt Smith, the actor best known for playing the eleventh incarnation of the Doctor on the wildly popular BBC series, Doctor Who, is ready to take on a bit more of a dark and disturbed character on the stage.

Smith is set to play Patrick Bateman in an upcoming musical adaptation of American Psycho coming to London’s West End. Christian Bale previously played Bateman in the 2000 cult classic movie directed by Mary Harron, which is adapted from the 1991 Bret Easton Ellis novel of the same name.
