The Doctor may be the most recognizable and well-known Time Lord the galaxy has ever seen, but it would be foolhardy to count out the Master entirely! This nefarious villain has repeatedly clashed with Davros for the title of the Doctor’s arch-nemesis, and it’s easy to see why. Through the years, the Master has wreaked havoc across the galaxy in his quest for ultimate power, only to be foiled by the Doctor each and every time....

Doctor Who has just given viewers a fresh look at the Timeless Child - and dropped some major new clues as to her identity. The Timeless Child is the central mystery of Doctor Who season 12, a secret that led the Master to destroy his homeworld of Gallifrey. He set the Doctor on a path to discovering the truth behind an ancient falsehood, one that he believed redefined what it meant to be a Time Lord....

For fans of Doctor Who, the casting of Jodie Whittaker as the next Doctor ended months of speculation. Becoming the first female to ever take on the role of a Time Lord (or Time Lady, now), Whittaker has a a lot of expectations on her shoulders. Incoming showrunner, Chris Chibnall, who worked with Whittaker on Broadchurch, said he always knew he wanted a female Doctor, while Whittaker herself said she needed no convincing to audition when Chibnall asked her....

Tosin Cole, who plays Doctor Who companion Ryan Sinclair, lands a lead role in upcoming AMC series 61st Street, prompting fans to speculate about his future with the BBC show. Cole joined at the start of season 11, along with Jodie Whittaker as the 13th Doctor, and fellow companions played by Bradley Walsh and Mandip Gill. Season 11 took a major leap for the long-running series when they announced Whittaker as the first woman to take on the role of the doctor....

Doctor Who season 12 has found a balanced way to respond to fan criticism that other franchises have struggled to achieve. Currently barreling towards its midway point, Doctor Who season 12 is generally considered to be an improvement on Jodie Whittaker’s first season behind the TARDIS controls, although there have been a few wibbly-wobbly ups and downs along the way. The opening “Spyfall” two-parter was widely touted as the best Thirteenth Doctor adventure to date, but the following “Orphan 55” panned for being contrived and preachy....

While the X-Men film franchise certainly plays host to dozens of unforgettable characters, one man has always seemed to stand above them all on the popularity chart: Wolverine (Hugh Jackman). The exact reasons for this can - and have been - extensively debated, but it doesn’t change the fact that Wolverine is the pretty clear star of the X-Men movie universe. As evidence, he’s the only X-Men character besides Deadpool to get his own solo adventures on the big-screen, with James Mangold’s Logan next on the list....

Doctor Who’s introduction of Sacha Dhawan, an actor of Indian descent, as the Master could be a sign of the show testing the waters for how a non-white Doctor would be received. Doctor Who’s season 12 premiere, titled “Spyfall,” has kicked things off with a high-octane, James Bond-inspired bang with a jaw-dropping twist that few fans saw coming. At the end of the first half of the two-part premiere, Sacha Dhawan’s character is revealed to be a the return of The Master, an iconic Who villain thought to be dead....

Doctor Who will wrap up season 12 with a two-part episode, and showrunner Chris Chibnall says they’ll provide answers to the mysteries of the Lone Cyberman and the Timeless Child. Season 12 premiered earlier this year with Jodie Whittaker returning for her second season as the 13th incarnation of The Doctor. Whittaker was brought on at the start of season 11 (becoming the first woman to play The Doctor) after Peter Capaldi stepped away from the role....

Of all the rich television histories that are floating around out there, Doctor Who might have one of the richest. The series celebrated its 50th anniversary not too long ago, proving the staying power of the Doctor and his adventures through time and space. With a history that long and a fictional universe that’s just teeming with storytelling potential, it’s no wonder new shows keep spinning off from the one inhabited by the good Doctor....

Like any book adaption, Doctor Sleep has to make sacrifices when incorporating elements from the original novel. Somethings have to be removed, allowing for tighter pacing and tension for the film medium. Because of this, certain narrative points lose weight and meaning that otherwise make far more sense in its written form. Whether it is expanded backstory, motivation, or what have you, there are a good deal of book references and plot points that only make sense if you read the original Stephen King novel....

Doctor Who’s Ruth twist was a groundbreaking swerve for the iconic science fiction series, but the episode left a trail of breadcrumbs to tip viewers off to the shocking reveal. In season 12’s “Fugitive of the Judoon,” the titular rhino-shaped space thugs descend upon Earth under contract to find a specific runaway. The Thirteenth Doctor eventually identifies their target as Ruth, a harmless British tour guide with no idea why the Judoon are chasing her....

Fans of the long-running science fiction TV Show Doctor Who know that the titular Doctor is a man (and now woman, too) of many faces. Many actors have portrayed this character, who changes form once every few seasons. From William Hartnell to Tom Baker to David Tennant to Jodie Whittaker, many of Britain’s favorite stars have brought this character to life. But the change is more than skin-deep. Each Doctor has a different outfit, different TARDIS, different companions, and a different outlook on the universe and their own selves....

It was a crisp Autumn evening in 2014 when fans across the globe tuned to their televisions to watch the Doctor Who episode “Dark Water.” Previews hinted at the identity of the enigmatic Missy (Michelle Gomez) who sporadically appeared over the course of season 8, and it was Peter Capaldi’s first season finale, so the hype was real. It was in the closing moments of the episode that we were given the render-you-speechless revelation of Missy’s identity: she was the Master....

Jodie Whittaker recently confirmed that she would be staying on as the Doctor in the next season of Doctor Who. Whittaker is currently playing the thirteenth iteration of a time-travelling, reincarnating alien in the BBC’s sci-fi series which originally ran from 1963 to 1989 with eight total Doctors and then received a reboot in 2005 and has run since then. Fifteen years is already a long runtime on television, but Doctor Who is one of the oldest and longest shows on TV, especially for fiction....

Mission: Impossible typically goes against the grain of modern, CGI-led blockbuster filmmaking - but does Mission: Impossible - Fallout bow down to modern trends and have an end-credits scene? Mission: Impossible - Fallout is unique in the franchise for being its first direct sequel. Previous movies retained some secondary characters but were mostly standalone adventures. This time, Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt (joined by Simon Pegg’s Benji, Ving Rhames’ Luthor and Rebecca Ferguson’s Ilsa) have a returning villain (Sean Harris’ Solomon Lane) continuing his personally-motivated plot for world domination....

The Sonic the Hedgehog video game adaptation is hitting theaters, but does the Sonic movie have a post-credits scene - and, if so, how many? A live-action take on Sega’s classic Sonic the Hedgehog video game franchise has long been in the works, but it only really started moving forward in the last few years. Originally slated for a Fall 2019 release, Sonic the Hedgehog was delayed three months so the titular blue hedgehog could be redesigned after a huge backlash to the first trailer....

There is no series on television like Doctor Who. Few shows have run as long as it, and few have had such a wide cast of characters. Through the highs and lows of Doctor Who’s history, the show has told a humongous volume of stories. A lot can happen over the entire span of space and time. With such a long history, there were bound to be aspects of Doctor Who that some fans missed....

A behind the scenes photo from the set of Doctor Who seems to show that the robot dog K-9 will be putting in an appearance in season 11. This is something of a shock, given that the upcoming eleventh season since the series revival in 2005 seemed to be emphasizing a new era for the classic science-fiction series, featuring a new showrunner, three new companions and a brand new Doctor in the form of actor Jodie Whittaker....

Since the Doctor continually regenerates, fans of Doctor Who have gotten to see numerous different actors bring their favourite alien to life. Whether you prefer a darker version of the Doctor or something a bit more campy, there is a season for you somewhere along the line. Though not all of those portrayals were created, nor received, equally. Some versions of the Doctor were truly praised by fans and critics alike while others fell a bit flat....
