Gatwa ’s casting was first confirmed all the path back in May amidst endless rumors andspeculation , back when it initially seemed like he ’d be the Fourteenth Doctor before it was let on thatDavid Tennantwas progress to his return . Since then , details on Gatwa ’s incarnation have been incredibly scarce , with the only other big matter of Federal Reserve note is thatRussell T. Daviesis back in the showrunner seat after having regenerate the show back in 2005 .
Beyond that , the only other thing to note about Gatwa ’s physician is that quite frankly , he looks just as hell . Previous Doctors have each had their own stylish tone , and Fifteen ’s is one of the strong in recent history . It ’s just instantly iconic , and Gatwa hold that combo see adept . Clinching it all together are the gang as seen in a follow up video recording where Gatwa and Gibson throttle each other up , which also jubilantly confirms that the newfangled time of year of Doctor Who has begun filming .
