New ‘Doctor Who’ Poster, 50th Anniversary Lineup Announced!

Well Whovians, the time is upon you.

Well, okay maybe not yet. There’s still a bit of waiting to do before the new 50th anniversary special premieres. But who isn’t excited to see the return of David Tennant (along with Matt Smith) in The Day of the Doctor?

This is the first time the modern-era series will feature two different incarnations of The Doctor and fans are excited to say the least. Billie Piper also returns to the series as Rose Tyler, another fan favorite from the Doctor Who timeline.

And John Hurt (V for Vendetta, Hellboy) isn’t exactly small time either, is he?

The new 75 minute episode The Day of the Doctor will air November 23rd on BBC America and is written by Stephen Moffat.

In other Who news, writer Mark Gatiss (Doctor Who, Sherlock) wrote An Adventure in Space and Time, starring David Bradley (Harry Potter movies, Broadchurch), Brian Cox (Red, Bourne Supremacy), Jessica Raine (The Woman in Black, Call the Midwife) and Sacha Dhawan (After Earth). This one follows the making of Doctor Who starting with William Hartnell, the first Doctor. Also airing is a special documentary looking at the science behind the popular show and Me, You and Doctor Who, which covers the cultural significance of the long running television show.

Are you excited? Let us know how you will be celebrating the new season. Geronimo!
