Doctor Who will soon return with Ncuti Gatwa stepping into the role of The Doctor in season 1. Before that has even hit our screens, the star has already teased more seasons down the line.
In an interview withVariety, the Sex Education star gave a promising update on the future of The Fifteenth Doctor, saying he’s “not going anywhere soon,” leading us to believe that there will be a third season. Gatwa has filmed a first season and is currently filming season 2.
But before we even think about season 3, next up on our radar isDoctor Who season 1where we will see Gatwa, joined by his companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) whom we met during last year’sChristmas Special, to embark on more adventures through space and time. Although the season does not yet have an official synopsis, in thefirst full trailerwe got a glimpse at what Gatwa will be getting up to including a trip to the ’60s, a regency ball, and a walk down London’s Abbey Road.
In an interview withSFX, Davies teased the upcoming series having a “running theme and running story that’s going to build and build and build to ‘The Most Devastating Finale’.” Alongside Gatwa and Gibson, the cast also includes Jinkx Monsoon in a mysterious villain role, Mindhunter’s Jonathan Groff, and more.
As for season 2, we recently got ourfirst lookat Gatwa in the second season alongside his two companions, Ruby Sunday and a newcomer played by Varada Sethu. Despiteprevious reports of her exit from the series, the BBC confirmed in a statement that the star will be present for the whole of season 2. An official plotline, cast list, or exact release date is yet to be announced.
