Before being cast in Doctor Who, Millie Gibson had already made a name for herself in the UK by starring in the long-running soap opera Coronation Street. The long-running sci-fi series was her real big break, though, especially as the BBC had partnered with Disney+.
That meant the show had a bigger budget and a global audience on streaming, turning Gibson into a worldwide star overnight.
The first season received mixed reviews and so-so ratings, and the news broke in June 2023 that Gibson had been labelled a “diva” after supposedly struggling with Doctor Who‘s intense shooting schedule. Then, in January 2024, it was said that she’d been “dropped” as companion Ruby Sunday.
