After Physician Who season 15’s main cliffhanger ending, the showrunner has commented on the collection’ future and the unsolved mysteries. Earlier than Physician Who season 15 even ended, a rumor unfold about Ncuti Gatwa regenerating and Physician Who getting canceled. As a result of the primary half of that got here true, followers are nervously ready to search out out if the second half will occur too. Sadly, showrunner Russell T. Davies (RTD) and the remainder of the Physician Who staff are additionally caught with out solutions.
In an interview with Physician Who Journal (through RadioTimes), RTD balked on the thought of Physician Who ever ending, and he mentioned all of the mysteries that he hopes to discover sooner or later. Most notably, he needs to deal with the Physician taking up the face of Billie Piper. That being mentioned, he’s pausing on speculating concerning the future storylines. He mentioned this:
“No, not the top, don’t be mad. Physician Who won’t ever finish!
There are pathways resulting in potential futures – we’ve nonetheless received the thriller of that brilliant and blazing ending, ‘Oh, hi there,’ sure certainly, hi there Billie! And there’s Susan, in fact.
I’m wondering if we’ll ever discover out who the Boss is. Or who the Boss are. (I’m nonetheless questioning who Gus is, from Mummy on the Orient Specific. Possibly they’re the identical!)
However we don’t know what’s occurring but, and whereas everybody works that out, I’ll take a pause on this web page … Hopefully, we’ll have information quickly, and positively, The Battle Between the Land and the Sea is about to interrupt out, so there are nice issues forward. Till then.”
Though RTD and all of the Whovians should watch for information about Physician Who season 16, the showrunner is correct to deliver consideration to The Battle Between the Land and the Sea. A launch date hasn’t been introduced but, but it surely’s anticipated in 2025.

Many Physician Who books exist for many who get pleasure from studying. These mediums embody plenty of nice Physician Who tales which have by no means appeared onscreen.

The Fifteenth Physician’s period launched a two-year-long thriller that was by no means brazenly addressed, and now it might be too late to make things better.
On high of that, The Battle Between The Land and the Sea will come out this 12 months, and a brand new animated Physician Who present is in improvement on the BBC.

Our Take On Physician Who’s Future
Physician Who Season 16 Will Want A Good Clarification For The Billie Piper Regeneration
Though RTD would possibly need to take a break from exploring future storylines, there’s no probability followers will comply with swimsuit, particularly after the stunning regeneration on the finish of Physician Who season 15.

Ncuti Gatwa Launched A Darkish New Facet To Physician Who & I Hope The Subsequent Physician Would not Ignore It
Ncuti Gatwa’s Fifteenth Physician introduces a darkness beneath the “rehabilitated” character, and I am hopeful the Sixteenth Physician continues this.
Nevertheless, I’m additionally mildly skeptical concerning the path they’ll go together with the story. I absolutely consider that the Physician Who regeneration was a gimmick meant to attract in viewers. In spite of everything, Disney+ will virtually definitely determine whether or not to proceed its take care of Physician Who based mostly on numbers alone, slightly than contemplating the passionate fanbase. Hopefully, RTD has, not less than, thought far sufficient forward to have a strong clarification for the Physician taking up Billie Piper’s face.
