A couple of weeks ago, we brought you the rumor that Sophia Myles could be stepping on board the TARDIS as the new companion once Amy and Rory leave in series seven.
At the time Myles and series runner Steven Moffat were being coy about her possible companion status via Twitter. And now Bleeding Cool is making a case that Myles has been cast in the role based on Tweets and other Internet rumors.
Here is their breakdown:
Doctor Who is currently filming in spain. Sophia Myles was complaining on Twitterover the weekend about her luggage as she is also in Spain.
She was recently interviewed by Doctor Who Magazine star interviewer Benjamin Cook with no mention of when or in what context this interview will appear. The staff ofDoctor Who Magazine do appear to know who the next companion will be but are keeping shtum.
Steven Moffat has been tweeting quite a lot to Sophia recently and heavily recommending that his followers follow her as well. They’ve been seeming quite pally of late.
Myles is scheduled to appear at the Doctor Who convention later this month. This would be the perfect time to announce her return to the show.
I could live with her as the new companion. Loved her in Underworld & on Moonlight.
Better yet – I hope she’s the next doctor.
