  • At a Los Angeles Comic Con panel, the duo said they would welcome a big‑screen outing and noted they are available.
  • The remarks constitute an on‑stage pitch rather than a confirmed project or green‑light.
  • The BBC has reiterated that Doctor Who will continue on its platforms regardless of Disney's involvement.
  • Disney+'s decision on ordering further seasons remains pending, leaving the live‑action show's timeline unresolved.
  • A five‑episode spin‑off, The War Between the Land and the Sea, is expected next year on the BBC and Disney+, following recent UK and Ireland cinema screenings of the season finale.
