The latest set photos from the upcoming season 15 of Doctor Who have sparked speculation among fans about potential plot twists and character developments. The photos suggest that Jonah Hauer-King's character, rumored to be connected to Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday, may have a darker side.
Season 15, set to air in 2025, will see the return of Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson to the TARDIS, along with Varada Sethu joining as a new companion. While season 14 is ready to premiere in May, season 15 has resumed filming after a brief hiatus in April.
Recent set photos reveal propaganda posters featuring Hauer-King's character associated with an unknown organization, hinting at a potential twist in the season finale. The posters display a crown logo seen on police vehicles on set, promoting an event on May 24 and campaigning for a character named Conrad.
Within the Doctor Who universe, the concept of companions or their associates harboring hidden agendas is not uncommon. Characters like River Song and The Master have previously deceived the Doctor, adding layers of complexity to the narrative.
Speculation arises from scenes involving UNIT protestors accusing the organization of concealing alien incidents, suggesting a major Earth-bound storyline in season 15. The mysterious crown logo organization and its influence on Hauer-King's character may introduce unforeseen challenges for Ruby and the Doctor.
As the season progresses, emotional stakes are expected to rise, with Hauer-King's character playing a significant recurring role alongside Ruby. The actor's involvement, though prominent in production, remains unconfirmed, fueling curiosity about his character's true identity.
Doctor Who season 14 is set to premiere with a two-episode debut on May 11 for international audiences on Disney+ and on May 10 for UK viewers on BBC iPlayer, followed by a later broadcast on BBC One.
Originally launched in 1963, Doctor Who follows the adventures of the Doctor, a Time Lord who travels through time and space in the TARDIS with companions, solving problems and averting disasters. The Doctor's ability to regenerate allows for the character to be portrayed by different actors, each bringing a unique interpretation to the immortal being.
