A new Doctor Who spinoff series is coming to Disney Plus


The Sea Devils are making their way back to Doctor Who.

During the Doctor Who panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Disney and the BBC announced that The War Between The Land And The Sea — a new series written by Russell T. Davies and Pete McTighe — is on the way. Jemma Redgrave and Alexander Devrient are set to reprise their roles as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart and Colonel Ibrahim, respectively, but they will also be joined by Russell Tovey and Gugu Mbatha-Raw as characters not yet revealed. In a press release about the new show, Davies called it “a huge, muscular, thrilling drama which will shake The Whoniverse to its foundations,” and while we don’t know when to expect its debut, it’s scheduled to begin shooting in August.
