David Tennant Opens up on Potential to Return as 14th Doctor in Doctor Who
David Tennant said the 14th Doctor could return, while the BBC has not confirmed a TV comeback for at least a year or two.
- David Tennant confirmed he is open to reprising his role as the 14th Doctor, having recently returned for three special episodes marking Doctor Who's 60th anniversary in 2023.
- Russell T Davies, who originally ran the show from 2005 to 2010, initiated the return, telling Tennant: "Okay, so I'm taking the reins of Doctor Who, and will you come back and be part of the ongoing story?"
- Tennant admitted he was unaware the 14th Doctor's adventures were restricted to television, stating: "It's interesting, I didn't know that there was a sort of embargo on any other worlds for that particular strain of the character."
- While he has not returned in audio form as the 14th Doctor, the actor has reprised his role as the Tenth Doctor for Big Finish audio adventures featuring Rani, played by Anjli Mohindra.
- The BBC show is currently 'out to tender,' meaning the network is opening daily production duties for competitive bidding; BBC Studios retains all intellectual property while the return date remains unconfirmed.
