Ncuti Gatwa ‘to wear wellies in his Doctor Who debut’

OHMYGOSSIP — Ncuti Gatwa is set to wear a pair of wellington boots in his ‘Doctor Who’ debut.
The 29-year-old actor was announced as the latest incarnation of the Doctor earlier this year, and the star is poised to bring a unique sense of style to the iconic role.
An insider told The Sun newspaper’s TV Biz column: “Every Doctor gets their own look every time they regenerate, and they always seem to have a very British edge thanks to the choices.
“Ncuti, who’s partial to an eccentric outfit himself, has recently said he’s having input into the Doctor’s clothes, so it’s not a surprise something as unconventional as wellies are in the mix.”
The ‘Sex Education’ actor will debut the eye-catching footwear in his first scenes on the sci-fi show, and they’re expected to become a permanent fixture during his time as the Doctor.
Ncuti was announced as the new star of ‘Doctor Who’ in May.
The actor – who is best-known for starring in the Netflix series – is replacing Jodie Whittaker in the role, and he previously admitted to being “deeply honoured” to have been handed the opportunity.
Ncuti – who will become the first black actor to play the role full-time – said: “There aren’t quite the words to describe how I’m feeling. A mix of deeply honoured, beyond excited and of course a little bit scared.
“This role and show means so much to so many around the world, including myself, and each one of my incredibly talented predecessors has handled that unique responsibility and privilege with the utmost care. I will endeavour my utmost to do the same.”
Ncuti is particularly looking forward to working with Russell T Davies, who is returning as the showrunner of ‘Doctor Who’ in 2023.
He explained: “Russell T Davies is almost as iconic as the Doctor himself and being able to work with him is a dream come true. His writing is dynamic, exciting, incredibly intelligent and fizzing with danger. An actor’s metaphorical playground.”
