Davies first helped revive the classic sci-fi series with a new 21st-century continuation in 2005, years after its 1989 cancellation brought the classic era to a close. Eccleston was cast as the Ninth Doctor following his work on Davies' previous series The Second Coming, playing a Doctor scarred by war whose sense of hope and adventure is revived through his new journeys.

Thrawn was first introduced in Timothy Zahn's 1991 novel Heir to the Empire. He returned to Star Wars canon in season 3 of the animated series Star Wars Rebels, which paved the way for his live-action debut in Ahsoka. He is the primary antagonist in Ahsoka and is also being set up as the main villain for all the live-action television series taking place during the early years of the New Republic.

Viewers have known since May 2022 that the upcoming season will center around Colin and Penelope's romance. However, before that, many assumed Benedict would be the main character. This is due to the order of the Bridgerton book series, as the third book focuses on Benedict, while the fourth tells Penelope and Colin's story. This marks the first time the show has deviated from the order of the books.
