Now, it seems that something has changed in Atwell with regard to wanting to play Doctor Who.
British actor Hayley Atwell is stepping back from her previously professed eagerness to step into the shoes of Doctor Who.
BBC has thus far remained mum on the issue of who is going to be the next Doctor Who.
Even with Atwell no longer interesting in the job, there is a roster of other talented actors who could be the next Doctor Who, including the previously mentioned Waller-Bridge.
