Doctor Who enthusiasts assemble! In a wonderful round of news this morning, it’s been announced that the upcoming season of the beloved classic is headed to Disney+ in late 2023. 

While all past seasons of Doctor Who are currently available to stream on HBO Max, the newest seasons – starring the surprise Fourteenth Doctor David Tenant and Sex Education’s Ncuti Gatwa as the upcoming Fifteenth Doctor – will exclusively be available to stream on Disney+ for all viewers outside of the UK and Ireland. For viewers within the UK and Ireland, the BBC remains home for all Doctor Who delicacies.

Little is known about the upcoming season, but what we do know is that it’s slated for a late 2023 release, with Tennant returning for three special episodes before passing down the torch, and the Tardis, to Gatwa.

We still have a long way ahead, but in the meantime you can subscribe to Disney+ for all Tardis-related preparations.
