Attention! The following contains spoilers for the Doctor who special “The power of the doctor”. Read at your own risk!
Doctor who said goodbye to Jodie Whittaker’s Time Lord in “The Power of the Doctor” and immediately won fans over when former star David Tennant introduced himself as his successor (at least for fans who didn’t). read the theories online ). After that shocking moment, the BBC threw another curveball revealing a trailer of what would happen to the beloved series in 2023. The trailer, while short, may have offered answers to some big questions fans were asking about. 60th anniversary specials, since as well as the official debut of Ncuti Gatwa.
The trailer it is really short, perhaps criminally understandable, but there are still key elements to extract from it. Before we dive into all of this, take a look below for our first exciting look Doctor whoSpecial offers for the 60th anniversary from:
To an inexperienced eye, it might seem like there isn’t much to be gained from this, but there are actually two key points that could answer some big questions we’ve had regarding the eventual debut. by Ncuti Gatwa in Doctor who.
Apparently Ncuti Gatwa will arrive during the 60th anniversary specials
The trailer showed David Tennant’s Doctor running, a short flash of Neil Patrick Harris’ Mysterious Villain and a discontented Ncuti Gatwa. What’s your name “Doctor who Back in 2023… ”, it was already logical that the images would be seen in the next three phases. This notion was apparently confirmed by Rachel Talalay, who directed one of the specials while explained to a fan on Twitter that the clip contains footage of all three specials, not just the episode he directed.
To be honest, some Doctor who Fans probably already thought Ncuti Gatwa would be involved in the 60th birthday celebrations, but they hadn’t seen him during the public filming of the specials and it wasn’t reported. Also, a few months ago a credible report emerged suggesting your doctor wouldn’t debut until season 14 it started. This trailer basically confirms that it will have at least one presence in the off-season specials, although I’m not sure it will be a lasting appearance, given our second point.
The clothes indicate that David Tennant’s doctor will regenerate into the incarnation of Ncuti Gatwa
When Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor regenerated into David Tennant’s, fans noticed that her clothes changed in the process, switching to a white buttoned shirt and gray tie, which appears to be exactly what the Doctor of. Ncuti Gatwa for his short clip on the Doctor who trailer. This would suggest that Tennant will eventually regenerate into the Doctor of Gatwa, which could mean a couple of things, or leave those clothes hidden for the next Doctor to find, which seems a little ridiculous, so let’s go with the other idea.
The first thing this could mean is a possible debunking of theories that suggest there are multiple doctors on the show. across a multiverse , or that Tennant’s Doctor will remain permanently in the franchise after that point. David Tennant makes a big comeback for his old friend and former showrunner Russell T. Davies’ 60th birthday, but it looks like he’ll eventually be leaving to give Ncuti Gatwa’s doctor time to shine.
Another question that Tennant’s transfer to Gatwa seems to answer, assuming David Tennant’s Doctor is present for most of the three-episode specials, is that Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor may not appear until the end of the episodes. The introduction of new doctors in the latest installment of the previous star’s career isn’t uncommon, but it’s not guaranteed either. Not all regenerations are the same , as anyone familiar with the series can confirm. We hope to see the Gatwa Doctor appear there for the first time in 2023, as he is becoming increasingly difficult to wait and see what he brings to the table.
Doctor who is on a short hiatus after Jodie Whittaker’s final episode, but will return to the BBC and BBC American in 2023 to celebrate her 60th anniversary. There’s a fantastic cast confirmed to appear, so get ready to enjoy the series with an HBO Max membership.
