At just 19 years old, Millie Gibson is already making waves in the acting world. She's just landed her next big role, even before her first full series on Doctor Who has aired. Talk about impressive!
Aside from her role on the BBC sci-fi show, Millie will also be starring in The Forsyte Saga, a six-part series based on the novels by John Galsworthy. Set in the early 1900s, the show follows a wealthy English family and their struggles with their newfound wealth and societal expectations. This will be the third TV adaptation of the beloved novels, with previous versions being a huge success.
The news of Millie's role was released by Deadline, who also confirmed that Poldark writer Debbie Horsfield will be writing the adaptation. The series is set to become a returning show, produced by PBS Masterpiece and ITV Studios' Mammoth Screen.
Joining Millie in the impressive cast is Eleanor Tomlinson, best known for her role in Poldark. She shared her excitement for the project on Instagram, posting a selfie with the novel and writing, "Let's go!" Other notable actors in the cast include Francesca Annis, Stephen Moyer, and Jack Devenport.
In The Forsyte Saga, Millie will be playing the love interest of Joshua Orpin's character Soames, who is the grandchild of the family's matriarch Ann. The series will serve as a prequel to the events of the first book, and is yet to have a broadcaster attached.
Many fans are already familiar with Millie's work, as she previously played Kelly Neelan on Coronation Street. But her latest role as Ruby Sunday on Doctor Who has really put her in the spotlight. The actress made a brief appearance in the Christmas special and her first full series is set to air later this month.
There were rumors that Millie had been dropped from her role on Doctor Who, but these were quickly shut down with the announcement of her return for the 15th season. She will be joined by Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu, who will play the new companions to the Time Lord.
Responding to the speculation, producer Russell T Davies commented, "It's tricky because you can't answer online rumors. Sometimes they're lies, sometimes they're true. Sometimes they're false, sometimes they're just exaggerations." But fans can now rest assured that Millie will be back on the show.
