Ibrahim POV! 🤳 Join Alexander Devrient for a day behind the scenes on the set of #TheWarBetween 🎬
Get even more behind the scenes when the Making Of documentary premieres Sunday Feb 15th on the #DoctorWho YouTube channel 👀
When I first stepped onto a Doctor Who set in July 2022, I had no idea how deeply this world would come to mean something to me — or how long I’d get to stay in it. What began as a job slowly turned into a journey, one that led to The War Between the Land and the Sea, which wrapped last night.
For now, that marks the end of Colonel Ibrahim’s time with UNIT. I’m incredibly grateful for the trust, the friendships, and the stories we got to tell together.
It’s been an honour 🫡
So many people made this journey possible, I’ll thank a few of them in the comments below… 🙏🏽
“Nothing can prepare you for the scale of sets on ‘Doctor Who’ or ‘The War Between.’ Especially after reading the scripts and trying to imagine it all in your head. It’s sci-fi in its most expansive form and allows for a level of immersion that is above and beyond anything I’d done before.”

Tonight my heart is broken - yet again - in a million pieces. 💔 🇱🇧
Is*ael carried out some of the deadliest air strikes our country has ever seen. All across Lebanon.
I feel helpless. Paralysed. My jaw is so clenched it hurts. My palms are sweaty. My heart is racing at a million miles per hour. I’ve texted everyone I know in Beirut and beyond. “Please, please give me a sign of life”. For every Lebanese out there, I see you, I feel you, I love you. Don’t give up 🖤
For @alexanderdevrient , identity has never been fixed. Shaped by cultures, languages and constant movement between worlds, his work exists in the space where complexity feels natural — where power, vulnerability and contradiction coexist.
Following the recent UK premiere of ‘The War Between the Land and the Sea’, a spin-off of ‘Doctor Who’, he takes on the role of Colonel Ibrahim, navigating a global crisis that challenges not only authority, but the human instinct to react before understanding. In our latest interview, the actor reflects on cultural identity, political storytelling and why the most compelling characters are those who live in moral grey areas.

Joining the fantastic cast of Sira for my first ever Spanish-language series 🇪🇸
An absolute joy — and a challenge — to be shooting in my fourth language.
Following the success of El Tiempo entre costuras, Sira follows protagonist Sira Quiroga (@adrianaugarte10 ) as she navigates a new chapter of her life in a post–World War II world, caught between espionage, reinvention and shifting political landscapes.
Based on the novels by @maria.duenas.oficial 😍

Muy feliz de unirme al fantástico reparto de Sira, mi primera serie íntegramente en español 🇪🇸
Un auténtico placer — y un reto — rodar en mi cuarto idioma.
Tras el éxito de El Tiempo entre costuras, Sira sigue a Sira Quiroga (@adrianaugarte10 ) en una nueva etapa de su vida, ambientada en el mundo de la posguerra, entre espionaje, reinvención y paisajes políticos en transformación.
Basada en las novelas de @maria.duenas.oficial 😍
EN 🇬🇧 Starting the year with an interview that’s very close to my heart.
@lorientlejour_olj is the newspaper my Lebanese grandfather read every single day — I’m sure he’s smiling somewhere up above ❤️🙏🏽
Speaking with @rayanne_tawil about heritage, identity, and my journey through Doctor Who and The War Between the Land and the Sea.
The full interview is in French and behind a paywall, but I’ll be sharing the link in my bio and a few highlights in my stories later.

FR 🇫🇷 Je commence l’année avec un entretien particulièrement cher à mon cœur.
@lorientlejour_olj est le journal que mon grand-père libanais lisait chaque jour — je suis sûr qu’il sourit quelque part là-haut ❤️🙏🏽
J’ai échangé avec @rayanne_tawil autour de l’héritage, de l’identité et de mon parcours à travers Doctor Who et The War Between the Land and the Sea.
L’entretien complet est en français et accessible via abonnement, mais je partagerai le lien dans ma bio ainsi que quelques extraits en stories un peu plus tard.
A lovely chat with @countryandtownhouse about stepping into The War Between the Land and the Sea, Colonel Ibrahim’s journey, and life on and off set.
With a bonus quick-fire round at the end 👌🏽
Full interview linked in my bio.
