Along with the never-before-seen prequel is a special interview of stars Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman by actor Whil Wheaton, star of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and a recurring guest star in "The Big Bang Theory" where he plays a parody of himself.

Fans may also opt to sign up on the website so they can be notified when tickets become available online. According to the BBC America announcement, over 700 theaters will celebrate the event. 

The season 8 finale, "Doctor Who: Dark Water/ Death in Heaven," focuses on the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) as he faces the mysterious Missy (Michelle Gomez) while Cybermen invade the streets of London. 

"We love bringing 'Doctor Who' events to theaters and seeing the fans come out in full force," states Fathom Events Vice Presdient of Programming Kymberli Frueh in a press release reported by ComicBook.com. "This time fans get the added excitement of seeing all the action in 3D with exclusive bonus content not available anywhere else."
