A-lister says he’s a massive fan of the BBC One sci-fi show – but what role could he play?
Hollywood star Ryan Gosling’s rumoured appearance in the new Doctor Who series has whipped fans into a frenzy.
And speculation is rife as to which character the A-lister will play in the show, which sees Sex Education star Ncuti Gatwa step into the Time Lord role from David Tennant after Jodie Whittaker’s regeneration.
Ryan Gosling’s possible addition has been branded as a ‘huge coup’ for the show. “It would be a real honour for Ryan who is something of a Whovian,” a source told the Sun. “It’s not clear yet what role he’d have, but the writers would tailor a character for him to play, if he could find the time in his packed schedule.”
Ncuti auditioned to play Doctor Who in February last year, under the impression he had zero chance of landing the gig. “I was just like, ‘There’s no way I’ll get this,'” he admitted. “‘It’s a British institution and there’s no way they’ll cast a Black man.'”
