The news was revealed by Deadline, with the publication saying that the production company Line of Duty creator Mercurio runs with Jimmy Mulville has submitted a proposal with Mercurio attached as an executive producer.
This follows World Productions CEO Simon Heath telling Radio Times that "there's definitely people in my team who are really interested in it, but I imagine there'll be lots of companies interested."
He continued: "It's a show that has its challenges, so you have to think very carefully. I think you have to go into it knowing you've got a plan. I think I know what I would do with it, but whether that means anyone would listen, I don't know."
It is also expected that two different BBC Studios labels have tabled bids to make Doctor Who, while Deadline has said its list is not exhaustive, and other interested parties may emerge.
The report does, however, note a number of companies which are not bidding, including A24 UK, Playground, Mammoth Screen, New Pictures, Big Talk Studios, Expectation and Quay Street.
A decision will be made in spring 2027.
