Jodie Whittaker is sticking around for at least one more season of Doctor Who.

The Hollywood Reporter confirms that the first female Time Lord will be returning for the upcoming 12th season. Whittaker told the outlet exclusively, “I really can’t wait to step back in and get to work again. It’s such an incredible role. It’s been an extraordinary journey so far and I’m not quite ready to hand it over yet.”

While the BBC hasn’t officially confirmed who is playing the Doctor in the upcoming season, it was largely presumed that the 26-year-old isn’t going anywhere.

Whittaker earned widespread praise for her work on Doctor Who, especially her portrayal of the first female Doctor in the show’s 55-year history. According to the outlet, the season 11 premiere garnered ratings of 10.9 million in the UK, making it the biggest season launch for the show.

Season 12 is expected to start shooting in early 2019.

Jodie Whittaker decided to reveal her reaction after finding out that she will be the first female lead in the cult British sci-fi series Doctor Who and the show’s Thirteenth Doctor. During her recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Whittaker admitted that she was overwhelmed with emotions after finding out the news and even started crying.

“I went to what I thought was just a final audition and a chat with all the grownups,” – the 36-year-old actress said. I was being all steely and when they told me the part was mine, I just started crying. They started telling me lots of important things about the role and all I could think was, ‘I really want to WhatsApp someone'”

Whittaker also added that she felt “joy, fear, and responsibility” to the fans.

Since its premiere in 1963, Doctor Who always had a male lead, with 12 actors playing the role of The Doctor. After Peter Capaldi, who played the Twelfth Doctor, decided to leave the show in 2017, BBC decided to take a different approach and choose a female lead with Jodie Whittaker eventually getting the part. This decision caused some controversy, but most of the fans ended up being pleased with the decision after Whittaker made her debut in Doctor Who’s 2017 Christmas special, “Twice Upon a Time.” Season 11 of the show is set to premiere on October 4th.

Before becoming the Thirteenth Doctor, Jodie Whittaker gained recognition for her work in television series Black Mirror, Broadchurch and The Smoke. She also portrayed roles in movies like Get Santa, Black Sea and Adult Life Skills.

People around the globe watched the World Cup final in hopes they’ll see an epic football match they’ll never forget. Same can’t be said about the fans of Doctor Who. They simply tuned in to see an amazing new promo for the upcoming season of their favorite TV show.

The main reason why there was so much buzz surrounding this teaser was the debut of the 13th Doctor. Jodie Whittaker was cast in the role about a year ago, and some backlash followed. Small, but vocal group expressed their disdain after Broadchurch star became the first woman to ever play the titular role. The actress encouraged them to keep an open mind and not be scared of her gender.

“This is a really exciting time, and Doctor Who represents everything that’s exciting about change. The fans have lived through so many changes, and this is only a new, different one, not a fearful one,” said Whittaker.

New teaser didn’t reveal much, but it gave fans what they needed – a first glimpse at what’s yet to come. The three new companions can be seen going about their everyday lives before the new Doctor enchants them with her time-twisting magic. They will be played by Tosin Cole, Mandip Gill and Bradley Walsh, when the new season of Doctor Who premiers this fall.

The BBC America police drama show’s creator and writer Chris Chibnall said that it is probably the end of the show, so season 3 finale that aired on Wednesday might have been the last fans got to see their loved and sometimes hated characters.

Chibnall told EW: “[t]here were these three stories. I wouldn’t want to do repeated versions of these crimes. I don’t think that would ring true to me. So, at the moment, I don’t think I have another story for this world and I’m not sure that will change, really. So, I think it’s probably goodbye for good.”

While it looks like the end for Broadchurch, Chibnall will be keeping busy as he is replacing Steve Moffat on Doctor Who as showrunner. Broadchurch star Jodie Whittaker will be joining him as a new character on Doctor Who. 

When asked why he won’t take Broadchurch abroad, he said that many have suggested that in the past. “I think wherever David Tennant and Olivia Colman might wish to spend a few months of their year… Yeah, Hawaii could be good. France. New Zealand. I’m sure you’d have eager ears from some of the cast!”
