Ncuti Gatwa is taking over as the Fifteenth Doctor in the next season of Doctor Who, and BBC has finally given us a taste of things to come. Following Gatwa’s big reveal in the latest Christmas episode, BBC dropped the trailer for his first full season as the Time Lord.
Gatwa recently made an appearance in the Christmas special “The Church on Ruby Road”, which aired on BBC this Christmas. Millie Gibson joined him as his new companion Ruby Sunday, and she’ll be back when Doctor Who returns for Season 14 in May 2024.
The Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday will board the TARDIS and embark on many epic adventures by each other’s side – and they’ll be in pretty good company. The new season will also star Yasmin Finney as Rose Noble, Bonnie Langford as Mel Bush, Indira Varma as the Duchess, Lenny Rush as Morris, Jinkx Monsoon as Doctor’s most powerful enemy yet, and Jonathan Groff in a mysterious key role.
Season 14 still doesn’t have an official release date, but it’s expected to premiere on BBC in May and feature eight episodes, with Russell T Davies coming on board as one of the writers. Gatwa is already attached to another 2024 Christmas special and an eight-episode 15th season.
