DESCRIPTION:
(from Disney+'s press release, July 2024) Disney Branded Television and BBC jointly announced "The War Between The Land And The Sea," an all-new "Doctor Who" spinoff, today at San Diego Comic-Con. Leading the five-part series is Russell Tovey ("Feud," "American Horror Story: NYC") and Gugu Mbatha-Raw ("Surface," "Loki"), alongside returning "Doctor Who" cast members Jemma Redgrave (as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart) and Alexander Devrient (as Colonel Ibrahim). When a fearsome and ancient species emerges from the ocean, dramatically revealing themselves to humanity, an international crisis is triggered. With the entire population at risk, UNIT steps into action as the land and sea wage war. Created by "Doctor Who" showrunner and executive producer Russell T Davies, who wrote the spinoff with Pete McTighe ("A Discovery of Witches," "The Pact," "Doctor Who"), the series features the triumphant return of the Sea Devils, classic "Doctor Who" villains first seen in 1972.
