'Camping' star David Tennant joins Emily Watson in psychological thriller 'Quicksand'

After playing a moderately normal character in 'Camping', Tennant is heading back to playing his off-track, quirky characters.

David Tennant has yet another project lined up for him in 2019. Following his breakout from "the type" with creators Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner's HBO show, 'Camping', Tennant has been taking up roles that are pretty much, unlike the characters that he has been playing for so long such as the Time Lord in 'Doctor Who', Barty Crouch Jr. in 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', and his upcoming role in 'Good Omens' as Crowley. 

Now, the 'Broadchurch' actor will be starring alongside Emily Watson in the psychological thriller, 'Quicksand', coming from the 'Humans and Troy: Fall of a City' director Mark Brozel. Marking Brozel's feature directorial debut, this revenge story is set to center around the British couple, Dan (played by Tennant) and Sarah (played by Watson) who dwell in their own paradise in the Mediterranean. However, their utopic world comes crashing down when their son is murdered by a local youth. In the string of unfortunate events that follow, a grief-stricken Dan is given the chance to avenge his son's death when a stranger asks for a price of his revenge...one more murder.
