Disney Ends Partnership with Doctor Who
Disney has terminated its partnership with Doctor Who, citing three key reasons: ratings, budget, and MAGA politics.
- Ratings: The two seasons of Doctor Who on Disney+ did not meet expected viewership numbers.
- Budget: The cost of producing the show was a factor in the decision.
- MAGA politics: The involvement of MAGA politics in the show's production also played a role.
A source close to the matter stated that Ncuti Gatwa, who played the Doctor, never "fully embraced" the role, saying
There is more to that role than performing.
The decision to end the partnership was made after the last season, which started in April 2025, failed to register on Nielsen and Luminate's streaming charts.
