X-Files Boss Chris Carter Responds to Season 10 Criticism: 'We Had to Shake Some of the Stiffness Out'

A decidedly mixed reaction was out there when the first X-Files revival (aka Season 10) landed on Fox two years ago. But series creator Chris Carter firmly believes that all the creative kinks have been worked out ahead of the series’ 10-episode comeback in early 2018. Regarding the 2016 revival, Carter concedes that the franchise’s decade-plus sabbatical proved to be something of a liability. “We [relaunched] from a standing start after not having been on the air for 12 years — there was some reacquainting that had to be achieved,” he says. “It was ...

'X-Files' Creator Chris Carter to Be Honored at Vancouver Film Fest

He'll be feted with the industry builder award for his eco-friendly efforts during production of the revived Fox series.

20th Century Fox Television's efforts to go green last year to bring the Vancouver-shot The X-Files back to primetime has earned creator Chris Carter a tribute at the upcoming Vancouver Film Festival. Carter will receive an industry builder award for environmental sustainable steps taken with the revival series on set, such as efficient electricity and fuel use, recycling aluminum and steel used in set construction and avoiding CO2 emissions where possible.

THE X-FILES

One of the biggest shows in sci-fi history returned to small screens in early 2016, thrilling diehard Mulder & Scully fans the world over. Image Engine was brought on board to create the otherworldly entities encountered by the FBI’s most tenacious agents. The truth is…below this introduction.

Following a mammoth 14-year break, The X-Files finally returned to small screens across the globe in January 2016. While the homecoming of conspiracy theorists/FBI investigators Fox Mulder and Dana Scully was the cause of much rejoicing, their lengthy absence meant that the cult sci-fi show needed to come back with a bang. That meant feature-quality visuals delivered to a mini-series timeline. With experience on shows such as Game of Thrones under its belt, Image Engine was more than up to the task. Visual effects supervisor Mat Krentz, CG supervisor Edmond Engelbrecht, and visual effects as ... [Continua a leggere]

Chris Carter on That ‘X-Files’ Season 10 Cliffhanger, and What Comes Next

The creator speaks on the show that, after 25 years, is now basically "running through [his] veins."

Trying to extract any secrets out of the creator of “The X-Files” is a fool’s game. But at the same time, it’s always a pleasure to hear Chris Carter reflect on the show that changed the game for network television in the 1990s. Nominated for 21 Emmys over the course of its original run, the sci-fi drama made international stars out of Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny, and broke ground in how genre could mix comedy with drama over 22 episodes a season. And when the show returned to Fox this spring for a six-episode limited run, Carter took pride in the fact that &l ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny & Gillian Anderson On Reopening 'The X-Files' And The Possibility Of More

A full 23 years after making its debut, Chris Carter’s cultural phenomenon The X-Files returned to Fox this year with a limited six-episode series, reuniting David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson for the first time since 2008’s The X-Files: I Want To Believe feature film. In late May, with Anderson and Duchovny on opposite sides of the country—she off-Broadway in a revival of A Streetcar Named Desire, which wrapped earlier this month; he in Los Angeles having wrapped a second season of Aquarius—the two stars gathered once more by phone. In a wide-ranging d ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny on the Conclusion of Aquarius and When The X-Files Might Come Back

This is the dawning of a new age of Aquarius. As the cat-and-mouse chase between Los Angeles detective Sam Hodiak (David Duchovny) and eccentric commune leader Charles Manson (Gethin Anthony) draws to its intense conclusion, Hodiak finds himself thrown headfirst into the  volatile 1960s world of sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll. Duchovny previews the far-out action while also filling us in on the future of The X-Files and his plans for the summer. What is your process for getting into the groovy 1960s mind-set? The first season, I was watching movies like Point Blank. [Creato ... [Continua a leggere]

X-Files creator Chris Carter is "proud" of season 10: "We made good on the promise"

"We showed that The X-Files has a lot more life in it."

The return of The X-Files for its tenth season last year came 14 years after the show originally wrapped, and eight since we last saw Mulder and Scully in The X-Files: I Want to Believe movie. So understandably all eyes were turned to the six new episodes and Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny's return to their iconic roles. Speaking to Digital Spy ahead of the series' release on DVD and Blu-ray, creator Chris Carter has said that he was very happy with how things turned out. "I think we made good on the promise of the opportunity to come back, and I feel proud of the work," he said. "We ... [Continua a leggere]

Chris Carter on X-Files Season 11: “I have a plan”

Chris Carter on X-Files Season 10, William and the brilliance of Mitch Pileggi

It’s fair to say that The X-Files revival ended on a little bit of a cliffhanger. The imminent end of the world, to be exact, courtesy of an alien virus, and it left us anxious to see more from Mulder and Scully. Which is not to say that the six episode miniseries didn’t get a lot done. There was plenty of arc mythology, William was not only addressed but loomed over each and every episode, and we even got an all-time great comedy episode from Darin Morgan: ‘Mulder And Scully Meet The Were-Monster.’ We got the chance to talk to creator Chris Carter about his expe ...

‘The X-Files’ Star Gillian Anderson on Why Hair Matters More than You Think

Every actor has their ways of getting into character, including the Emmy-winning television icon.

On the other end of the phone, near the end of our conversation, Gillian Anderson laughed. “Did you think that your entire interview was going to have to do with hair?” The answer was no, that had not been the plan. But the topic proved to be surprisingly insightful. Anderson has been called the Queen of TV upon multiple occasions — such as when, in 2014, she starred on three different series (“Crisis,” “The Fall” and “Hannibal”) while also turning in acclaimed work on the stage as the doomed Blanche of “A Streetcar Named Desire.&rd ...

The X-Files Lexicon's exclusive interview with Darin Morgan on 'Mulder and Scully Meet The Were Monster'

Conducted by Matt Allair in 06/09/2016 Page Editor: Liz Tray Along with James Wong and Glen Morgan, one of the other surprises when the new episodes were announced in March 2015, and the writing team revealed, was the addition of Darin Morgan to the new season. It was wonderful news, as Darin remains one of the most beloved figures of the original writers that laid the foundation for The X-Files, and many writers, especially Vince Gilligan, would emulate Darin’s unique and humorous approach to storytelling. While humor is a key to Darin’s writing, it isn’t cut and dried to ... [Continua a leggere]

The X-Files event series interview: creator Chris Carter

The X-Files creator Chris Carter chats to us about making more new episodes, Mulder and Scully's fan-appeal, and his favourite episode...

As The X-Files event series comes out on DVD and Blu-Ray in the UK, we chatted to creator Chris Carter about the response to the revived series, doing more episodes and looking back on his lengthy time on the show... Were you pleased with the way the revival series turned out? Yes, I’m very happy with the work, I’m proud of the work, and with the response to it, we had terrific ratings here in the US. It’s a big risk to come back to the show after 23 years, and do it with actors and directors and writers who are 23 years older, and hopefully the audience is still there. We ...

Chris Carter on Future X-Files: "I Can't Imagine There Wouldn't Be More"

Although last season ended big cliffhanger, X-Files fans are currently in the dark regarding the roll-out of future episodes. What's going to happen to Mulder and Scully? Is humanity doomed? Are there probes on that UFO?  IGN recently had the opportunity to chat Carter about the tonal evolution of his classic show, its legacy, and of course, his plans moving forward. IGN: I'll start with the most obvious question first. Are there going to be more episodes? Fox wants to do more. The ratings were good so there’s an appetite for more, I’m very pleased with the work that we did ... [Continua a leggere]

How technology changed ‘The X-Files,’ on-screen and off, according to its creator

Earlier this year, "The X-Files" got its chance at a reboot, with six new episodes filmed after fans campaigned to bring the show back. The new episodes were set 14 years after the series ended — mirroring the real world since the Fox series went off the air in 2002. But a lot has changed since then. How should Agents Mulder and Scully adjust to a brave new world of smartphones, streaming video and social media? Series creator Chris Carter, who was in Washington last month as part of the Smithsonian's "The Future is Here" festival, took some time to chat ab ... [Continua a leggere]

For Chris Carter, the Truth is Still Out There

The X-Files creator wants to believe.

Chris Carter is the creator of “The X-Files,” a fictional TV show that follows FBI special agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully as they investigate the paranormal. Debuting in 1993, the series ran nine seasons, and critics and fans praised the show’s cinematic quality, the result of substantive scripts, thoughtful acting, advanced special effects, and multiple camera viewpoints. Indeed, the best episodes felt more like films than TV shows. On January 24, FOX began airing six new episodes, which ran through February 22. The closing scene of the final episode (Scully standing on ... [Continua a leggere]
