Washington [US], December 26: Following the conclusion of the festive special Joy to the World, fans of Doctor Who are already buzzing with excitement over the release of a brand new teaser for the upcoming season.
The teaser, shared on Disney’s official social media platforms, offers a tantalizing preview of what’s to come in season 2, now led by showrunner Russell T Davies and co-produced by Disney. Ncuti Gatwa makes his highly anticipated return as the Doctor, embarking on an adventurous mission to protect Belinda Chandra, played by Andor star Varada Sethu.
The Doctor and Chandra’s quest to return her to Earth is complicated by a mysterious force, introducing new threats and enemies far greater than anything the TARDIS crew has encountered before. Alongside Gatwa, fans will also see Ruby Sunday, portrayed by Millie Gibson, continuing her role as the Doctor’s companion.
The teaser promises action-packed time travel, high-stakes drama, and formidable new foes, setting the stage for an exhilarating season. It also introduces new faces to the Doctor Who universe, including Strictly Come Dancing winner Rose Ayling-Ellis, with her character yet to be revealed.
The teaser follows the events of Joy to the World, the holiday special featuring Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan, which captivated audiences with its festive tone and a gripping mystery involving a hidden “Time Hotel” and a plot threatening Earth. The exciting new preview signals an action-packed season ahead, filled with twists and danger, as the Doctor and his team face their most formidable challenges yet.
