Doctor Who: Disney's D23 Offers Fashionable TARDIS Display (IMAGES)

Check out Disney's D23 display for Showrunner Russell T. Davies and Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) & Millie Gibson's (Ruby Sunday) Doctor Who.


Earlier today, we had a chance to hear from Bad Wolf co-founder Jane Tranter regarding her thoughts on how things are going with Showrunner Russell T. Davies and stars Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) and Millie Gibson's (Ruby Sunday) Doctor Who now that we've reached the end of the first season of the deal between the BBC and Disney (more on that in a minute). Now, we're getting a chance to show you how the show is being spotlighted during this weekend's big fan expo event from Disney – D23. We've got a look at Gatwa's and Gibson's outfits from early on, followed by the one thing that we would end up taking pictures with for half the day. Yup, the TARDIS – here's a look:

Doctor Who: Bad Wolf Co-Founder on BBC/Disney Deal; Season 2 Update

One topic that continues to be hotly debated on social media among Doctor Who fans has to do with the Disney part of the partnership – specifically, whether it was happy with how the first season worked for its streaming service. That was a question that Tranter addressed during an interview with Deadline Hollywood in support of the upcoming third season of HBO's Industry. Tranter shared her thoughts on how the first season was received by Disney+ and how things were looking for the show's future.

"We feel good about the first season. Just as 'Industry' was a really small experiment at the start, I think this new building of the franchise between the BBC and Disney+ – it's a whole new iteration, and us all coming back all these years later to do it. It was a whole new adventure. We're really pleased with the show that we've made and that there is a whole new audience being driven to the show who haven't watched 'Doctor Who' in the past, has been exactly what Russell [Davies] set out to do. So that's really good," Tranter shared.

From there, Tranter offered a rundown of what's in store for "The WHO-niverse" – including the spinoff mini-series that was announced during San Diego Comic-Con 2024 (SDCC 2024). "We announced last week that we're doing 'The War Between The Land And The Sea,' which is the first time there's a mini-series within the whole universe. So we're thrilled that the BBC and Disney+ have awarded us that to do," Tranter revealed. "We're still in the edit, very early days of the edit for Season 2, which obviously won't go out for another year or so. It's very exciting. We're right in the middle of the journey, and it's very exhilarating."
