Doctor Who Showrunner Hopeful For Season 3 Renewal

Doctor Who Showrunner Hopeful For Season 3 Renewal

As a seasoned gamer of time and space, I must say that the latest developments in the world of Doctor Who have sent me spinning through more dimensions than a Dalek-chased TARDIS! With Russell T. Davies back at the helm and Ncuti Gatwa stepping into the iconic role of the Doctor, it’s an exciting time to be a Whovian.


The iconic series, Doctor Who, leaped into a fresh chapter this year, moving to Disney+ as its new streaming platform, introducing Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor, and welcoming back Russell T. Davies as showrunner. The upcoming season of Doctor Who (labeled as Season 2 in the Disney+ era) is already under production, but it seems there’s more to anticipate. As per reports from SFX Magazine via GamesRadar, Davies has already started plotting storylines for the following season of Doctor Who. However, a renewal from Disney+ and the BBC likely won’t be announced until we approach the airing date of Season 2.

Davies clarified that the decision about the future of our industry is similar to any other business, it requires time. We anticipate that a decision will be made following the broadcast of Season 2, which has always been our trajectory.

When Will Doctor Who Return With New Episodes?

The beloved series “Doctor Who” is coming back for a Christmas special in 2024, penned by the show’s previous head writer, Steven Moffat. Production for Season 2, now under the Disney+ banner, has been completed, but an official release date remains undetermined. We can expect to see both Mandip Gill and John Bishop reprising their roles in Season 2, along with Varada Sethu joining them as a new enigmatic companion.

Previously, Gatwa expressed that he finds the role incredibly enjoyable now. He has grown more comfortable and it seems like the Doctor has settled a bit more, shifting from his chest to his gut.

Is Doctor Who Getting a New Spinoff?

This year at the San Diego Comic-Con, it was revealed that the popular series “Doctor Who” will be debuting a new miniseries titled “The Conflict Between Land and Sea.” In “The Conflict Between Land and Sea,” a terrifying and ancient race rises from the ocean, causing a global crisis when they reveal themselves to humanity. As the entire population is at stake, UNIT takes action as the land and sea engage in warfare. The miniseries “The Conflict Between Land and Sea” is produced by Bad Wolf, in collaboration with BBC Studios for Disney Branded Television and the BBC. Russell Tovey (“Feud,” “American Horror Story: NYC”) and Gugu Mbatha-Raw (“Surface,” “Loki”) will star in this production, alongside “Doctor Who” veterans Jemma Redgrave as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart and Alexander Devrient as Colonel Ibrahim.

In a press statement, Davies expressed his good fortune for working with such an outstanding cast. He also highlighted that the series is a powerful, muscular, and exhilarating drama that will cause quite the earthquake within the world of Doctor Who. When the Doctor is absent, humanity finds itself in deep trouble.
