There were dozens of rumors about the 14th doctor of Doctor Who, one of the most popular sci-fi series. While there was a lot of curiosity about who the new doctor and lead role of the series would be, it was announced a few months ago that the new doctor would be Ncuti Gatwa, who had a great rise in her career with Netflix’s popular series Sex Education.

There has been a development that will please the fans of Doctor Who, produced by the BBC. It has been stated that Disney Plus, the online content platform that started broadcasting in the past months and stands out with its quality content, wants to further strengthen its broadcasting service by adding a new Doctor Who series to its library.

Disney is trying to make a deal with the BBC

After Disney and BBC sources told Bloomberg, any agreement between Disney and the BBC to acquire the broadcast rights for a new Doctor Who series is said to be in the early stages. Therefore, there is no guarantee that any agreement will be reached. If an agreement can be reached between the two companies, the long-running sci-fi series will air its next season on Disney+ globally as well as on the BBC.

Neither the BBC nor Disney made any statements about this partnership agreement. Doctor Who, which started broadcasting in 2005, continues to be broadcast on HBO Max with its 13th season and under the name Doctor Who: Flux.
