The casting of Gatwa was confirmed all the way back in May when it seemed like he would be the Fourteenth Doctor. Russell T. Davies is back in the seat after having rejuvenated the show back in 2005.
The only other thing to note about Gatwa's Doctor is that he looks great. One of the strongest Doctors in recent history has had their own style. Gatwa makes that combo look great. The newest season of Doctor Who has begun filming and is confirmed in a follow up video where Gatwa and Gibson gas each other up.
It will be a long time before we see him and Gibson together. The 60th anniversary of the franchise will be celebrated with a trio of specials featuring David and Catherine. The 15th Doctor will headline the show for a few years after the specials are dropped. It will bring with it Disney+, where the show will only be aired outside of the UK and may mean a boost to the show's budget.
