It’s the thing we’ve been dreading- the regeneration of the 13th Doctor, Jodie Whittaker. The first woman to carry the iconic BBC character’s mantle, Whittaker first joined “Doctor Who” in 2017. Her first appearance in the long-running series was the Christmas special, “Twice Upon a Time,” where 12th Doctor Peter Capaldi regenerated into Whittaker’s 13th.
We’ve known for sometime Whittaker would be leaving the series, and, who would be replacing her as the 14th Doctor. Ncuti Gatwa, breakout star of Netflix’s wonderful “Sex Education,” was officially confirmed as joining the series in May of 2022.
During a panel at New York Comic Con (NYCC), the BBC released a trailer and several images of the upcoming penultimate episode, “The Power of the Doctor.”
Whittaker’s final “Doctor Episode,” “The Power of the Doctor,” will air October 23rd, 2022. Check out the trailer now:
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief.
Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence.
Though she be but little, she is fierce.
