The BBC has asked Ncuti Gatwa to make the world a little more sonic with them, tapping Gatwa to be the first Black lead in the “Doctor Who” franchise.
Gatwa, 29, will take over the role from Jodie Whitaker to become the 14th Doctor, the BBC announced Sunday. In a statement published on the show’s website, Gatwa said he was “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,” he said.
