HBO’s Casey Bloys Denies Talks for Doctor Who Streaming Deal

by

So, I’ve been following this for a while, and HBO’s Casey Bloys finally talked about the buzz around a potential deal with the BBC. Basically, they are talking, but honestly? It’s probably not the news Doctor Who fans were hoping for. I was really crossing my fingers for a full-on co-production or something, but it sounds like it’s more of a general discussion right now.

In an interview with Radio Times, Bloys confirmed that no one has approached HBO about a potential revival. He stated, “It hasn’t been pitched to us.” While he didn’t completely rule it out, saying “you never know,” he emphasized that he currently has no knowledge of any discussions about bringing it back.

How the Doctor Who on HBO Max Rumors Began

The future of where to watch Doctor Who has been uncertain since the BBC’s deal with Disney ended. This partnership had made Ncuti Gatwa’s seasons available on Disney+ internationally. With fans waiting for a Christmas special and rumors of cancellation, questions remain about where the show will stream, especially after the surprising cliffhanger in the latest episode where Gatwa’s character transformed into Billie Piper.

Recently, BBC drama director Lindsay Salt was questioned about the possibility of a new collaboration between Doctor Who and HBO, similar to their previous agreement with Disney. This partnership could bring new Doctor Who episodes to HBO Max internationally, as the BBC already works with HBO on other shows. HBO Max previously streamed all Doctor Who episodes from the 2005 revival onward, including the latest seasons, and this sparked speculation about a renewed deal.
