There are so many reasons to be excited for Doctor Who‘s 60th anniversary celebrations next year. Not only is Ncuti Gatwa joining the Whoniverse as the latest incarnation of the Doctor, but David Tennant is returning to the series for its big birthday bash, alongside former companion Catherine Tate. We even know who’ll Tennant will be facing. How I Met Your Mother icon Neil Patrick Harris is set to play a powerful new foe for the Time Lord.
While appearing on The View recently, Harris spoke publicly for the first time about his mysterious Who character, who showrunner Russell T. Davies has labelled the “greatest enemy the Doctor has ever faced.” Harris kept his lips shut as much as possible but he did praise Davies, who he previously worked with on acclaimed miniseries It’s a Sin, as an “amazing guy” who’s “super lovely.”
