The latest installment of the legendary series stars Ncuti Gatwa as the 15th Doctor, with Mille Gibson as his companion, Ruby Sunday; the all-new season streams May 10 in the U.S. and worldwide.
The Doctor is in! Disney+ has shared a sneak peek of the newest installment of Doctor Who starring Ncuti Gatwa as the series’ 15th Doctor. In the trailer, The Doctor and Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) journey through time and space in the TARDIS - exploring the groovy ‘60s, the Regency era in England, and war-torn futures! Throughout their adventures in the TARDIS — a time-traveling ship shaped like a police box — they encounter incredible friends and dangerous foes, including a terrifying bogeyman and the Doctor’s most powerful enemy yet.
The trailer provides a first look at Indira Varma’s (Game of Thrones) character, the Duchess, and announces that Callie Cooke (Henpocalypse!) will appear in the upcoming season. Additional guest cast featured throughout the trailer includes Anita Dobson, Yasmin Finney, Michelle Greenidge, Bonnie Langford, Jinkx Monsoon, Jemma Redgrave, Lenny Rush, and Angela Wynter.
Tune in on Friday, May 10 at 7:00 p.m. EDT on Disney+ in the U.S. and around the world (excluding the U.K.) to stream “The Church on Ruby Road,” which premiered last December, as well as two all-new Doctor Who episodes. In the U.K., Doctor Who begins streaming May 11 at midnight on BBC iPlayer before airing on BBC One later that day, giving audiences a simultaneous global launch. New episodes drop Fridays on Disney+, where available, and on Saturdays on the BBC and BBC iPlayer in the UK.
