The biggest question within the famous sci-fi series, Doctor Who is about to be revealed with regarding the true identity about who’ll become the 16th Doctor. According to Screenrant, the finale in the previous season saw that Ncuti Gatwa (Sex Education, Barbie) regenerated and transformed into a familiar face which was Billie Piper (Wednesday, Kaos) . The series showrunner, Russel T Davies (The Giggle, The Star Beast) have commented on the dedication the team is putting in series production,”57 people have to sign off on every single word and yet I can hear the gears slowing down even as I say that. You know this place.”
Speaking with Screenrant’s Joe Deckelmeier, Piper explained that her appearance was a last-minute decision and went on to share more details,” I got the call last minute, it was to shoot in a hidden location, and there were only a few people who knew about it. And I wasn’t able to say anything to anyone, including the people I loved the most in my life. And I actually really like having a secret… I’m so available to my family all the time. I actually like having something for myself. So I really relished that secret.”
Reported by Screenrant, with little information to go on and the identity of the future Time Lord still under lock and key, just the exciting announcement by Billie and Russell has Whovians on the edge of their seats over who the lucky actor or actress will be to take up the mantle. If one thing is guaranteed, it’s that the approaching adventures will feature the signature blend of campy wackiness and high-stakes action that has made Doctor Who a global phenomenon.
All previous seasons of Doctor Who, can be streamed across various platforms which include Disney+ for the newer seasons.
