Jodie Whittaker It opens why he trusts his role as a doctor in his beloved British series Doctor who failed.
“It was noisy little (people). The anger is always really loud – the compliments are much more calm,” Whittaker said about the fans’ reaction to her actors in an interview published on Sunday, February 2 Sunday Times.
“But also, that show does not have a comparison. It’s part of all our vocabulary – Tardis, Daleks, exterminated! And all the doctor until then was white,” she added. “They are very different actors, but everyone corresponds to a certain mold – and I’m not.”
Whittaker also worried that a negative response to her performance as a character, who played several actors from the debut of the show in 1963, would adversely affect other performers who could be actors in the future.
“If Peter (Capaldi) was not as good as a doctor, it would just reflect on him. While I felt that if I wasn’t very good at it, I’m F -Ked for other actors,” she explained. “I think it’s completely unacceptable if this was the case, but that’s how I felt.”
Whittaker also dealt with the idea that her casting means that the character is no longer a role model for boys. “It was never called into question that I had to look at men,” she said. “So it was fascinating that for some (women) we couldn’t be a role model. The doctor is still a doctor. But also, I played an alien! My gender was not a problem.”
She continued to add that she believed that her genus even helped her to be a more authentic character. “In the last scene, during an episode of Regene, I was pregnant. So, I was the first doctor to be a method and had two hearts,” she said.
And Whittaker and Showrunner Chris Chibnull announced their departures From the 2021 show. “In 2017, I opened my famous gift box of shoes in size 13. I couldn’t assume great adventures, worlds and miracles I needed to see in them,” Whittaker told the BBC at the time. “I’ll wear a doctor and lessons I’ve learned forever.”
Whittaker was the first woman to play a role when She was acting In 2017. “I’m excited to start this epic trip, with (new Showrunner Chris Chubnull) and with every whovan on this planet,” she said at the time. “It’s more of an honor to play a doctor. It means remembering everyone I used to be, as I step forward to accept everything a doctor advocates: hope. I can’t wait.”
