Peter Jackson just dropped a video “announcement” on his Facebook page to confirm something we first heard rumblings about three years ago: The director of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies will be bringing his skills to an upcoming episode of Doctor Who.

In all honesty, this should be great match of director to subject. And, if nothing else, the video itself a fun Doctor Who bit:

A little self-deprecation goes a long way. Also, full points to Jackson for saying that he’d do it in six months in New Zealand rather than 12 days in Cardiff.

H/t Robert A. Petersen!
