As we all know Doctor Who is one of those things that is quintessentially British, but say the USA did thing. Who could pull off the eccentric nature of The Doctor.
If we are talking classic Who I'd say Gene Wilder, present day someone like Donald Glover.
Also maybe the Tardis would be a little different  |

An american accent would pull us right out of the whoniverse. That said Nicolas Cage, Seth Green, Zach Braff, maybe Sean Hays. You would need to cherry pick some at particular ages though. The TARDIS chameleon circuit would sputter into a tricked out F250 with a sitcom house inside. |

"Think Fairuza Balk would be a good Master."
For Missy... Chloë Grace Moretz, Carrie Fisher  RIP, Laurie Metcalf
The Master... Dennis Haysbert, Leonardo DiCaprio, Fred Savage |

Anthony Hopkins could play either the Dr or the Master. As could Patrick Stewart.
The late Alan Rickman would have made a superb Master (and also Dr).
Blimey, I keep picking actors who were or are at the top of their game and RSC.
I think however, I'd have to go for Joaquin Phoenix. Serious, intense and could do the role justice, and treat it with the respect it deserves.
I've had enough of madcap zany Doctors. Time for some gravitas. |

Paul McGann is technically the "American" iteration of The Dr as that movie was the first colab between US and UK to get Dr Who rebooted but it didn't get enough views from the American side to continue funding and support. |
