Chris Carter interview: The X-Files

In the run-up to The X-Files season 11's DVD and Blu-ray release on Monday the 23rd of July, we chatted to co-creator Chris Carter.

Ahead of The X-Files season 11’s DVD release on July 23rd, we spoke to the show’s creator, Chris Carter, about sci-fi influences, real-life UFOs, and the real reason the cult classic still draws us in after 25 years… How are you doing, Chris? I’m doing great, thanks. I’m actually in Vancouver – kind of on a working vacation, but I’m not in production. Oh, of course – there’s an X-Files exhibition on there right now, isn’t there? (It ran until June 30th at Back Gallery Project, which is run by Carter’s fri ... [Continua a leggere]

The X-Files Season 11 Ending Explained

Series creator Chris Carter helps us answer some of the lingering questions from The X-Files season 11 finale.

The world is safe from an alien pathogen… for now. The four-part “My Struggle” saga has come to a shocking conclusion that has huge implications for The X-Files if the series is to continue beyond season 11. There’s no guarantee Fox renews the series, though series creator Chris Carter told us he’s optimistic there will be more X-Files stories to tell, even if Gillian Anderson is true to her word and has indeed made her last appearance as Dana Scully. Before we even begin to consider what the series would be like without Scully (and ... [Continua a leggere]

The X-Files Season 11 Interview: Chris Carter on Cliffhangers, Episode Details

We chat with Chris Carter about The X-Files season 11.

Phoning in from The X-Files set in Vancouver, series creator Chris Carter says he hopes to capitalize on what worked well in the six-episode revival. Naturally, it was the same morning they began production on a “dark comedy” episode written by fan-favorite writer Darin Morgan. Though tight-lipped about the actual plot of the episode, the often cryptic showrunner had more to divulge on the season 10 cliffhanger ending that sent the passionate X-Files fan base into a frenzy. Carter had a plan all along, even if there was no guarantee of life for The X-Files beyond the sea ... [Continua a leggere]

The X-Files Season 11: Duchovny, Anderson, and Carter Weigh In On The Show's Legacy

The seminal sci-fi series lives on to tell new stories while embracing the fandom who changed how we watch television.

Nobody blinks when there’s a monster lurking around the set of The X-Files. Nine seasons, two feature films, and a six-episode revival would condition any actor or crew member to treat the paranormal as just another day at the office. But what happens when a superfan invades the production?   In season 10, writer and director Darin Morgan cast lifelong X-Files fan Kumail Nanjiani (Silicon Valley, The Big Sick) to play a guest role as the titular creature in “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster.” His first night on-set, Nanjiani recalls walking t ...

X-Files Exclusive: James Wong Confirmed To Write, Details On Season 11 Plot

We've confirmed that James Wong will return to write for the X-Files season 11.

When The X-Files season 11 was announced, there was mix of excitement and some trepidation with fans about whom might be involved with the season.  We’ve already confirmed Glen and Darin Morgan will be back to write for for The X-Files season 11. Now another key piece to the X-Files creative staff spoke with Den of Geek on his involvement in the new season.  James Wong, best known for his work on the early seasons of the X-Files, confirmed he will write and direct two of the upcoming 10 episodes of The X-Files. Wong' ... [Continua a leggere]

X-Files Season 11: Glen and Darin Morgan To Pen New Episodes

The X-Files season 11 is slated for 2018 and will bring back some familiar faces on the creative staff.

The X-Files season 11 will pick up after a cliffhanger, that much is certain. Fox's 10-episode order still leaves a number of unanswered questions, including how many monster-of-the-week episodes we’ll get, who will be writing scripts, and if we’ll get the return of Mulder and Scully Jr. One answer we did get was from writer and producer Glen Morgan. We sat down with Morgan on the set of his new series, an adaptation of the popular genre podcast Lore for Amazon (the details of which we’re not yet at liberty to discuss), and he confided that ...

Vince Gilligan Says X-Files Season 11 Reunion Doubtful

If his busy schedule allows, Vince Gilligan wouldn't rule out an X-Files reunion, but don't hold your breath.

In an exclusive interview with Den of Geek on his current series, Better Call Saul, the timing just so happened to work out that we were the first people to ring up Vince Gilligan after The X-Files season 11 was announced. Gilligan holds a deep admiration for the series that kicked off his career, but as one of the busiest creators in Hollywood, he doesn’t want to get fans' hopes up for a potential reunion. “You know, it's heartbreaking to say, but it's a bit of a moot point since I'm just too busy over here,” Gilligan told Den of Geek. &ld ...

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 ...

The X-Files Loves Kim Manners (And So Do We)

This week's episode of The X-Files paid tribute to the man who made the franchise what it is today. Did you catch it?

That graveyard scene near the end of “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster” has become one of the most classic moments in X-Files history overnight - literally. Not only was it a heartwarmingly thought-provoking deconstruction of the bizarre purposelessness of human life in the digital age, but it was also freakin’ hilarious to boot. Cheeky social commentary aside, it’s also a moving tribute to the man who put the The X-Files on the map: legendary TV director Kim Manners, whose name appears in bold on the headstone Mulder stands (and drinks) in front of. Manners dir ... [Continua a leggere]

The X-Files: Glen and Darin Morgan Come Home

During the X-Files writers panel at EW Fest, Glen and Darin Morgan discussed their re-opening of The X-Files.

Chris Carter wanted to come back to The X-Files only if there was an original idea that could “update” the series -- rather than reboot or revive as we’ve labeled it for months. Yet in telling new X-Files stories, Carter found comfort in old friends, who found beats in old conspiracies that still resonate today. During the “The Inside The X-Files Writers’ Room” Panel at EW Fest, Carter sat down with X-Files writers Glen and Darin Morgan, who penned many of the series’ iconic episodes, to talk about the writing process for the 6-episode miniseries. &l ...

The X-Files: Joe Harris talks X-Files Season 10 and the Revival

We spoke with the writer of The X-Files Season 10 comic book series about the future of The X-Files.

This is probably one of the most exciting recent times for fans of The X-Files, aside from the release of the two features, Fight The Future in 1998 and I Want To Believe in 2008. Up until last year, there had been little talk of a revival, but the The X-Files comic book series from IDW Publishing, which was promoted as Season 10, and executively produced by Chris Carter and written by Joe Harris, had generated a lot of attention from passionate fans. Harris, a native New Yorker, is known for his graphic novel for Image comic Great Pacific, as well as co-writing and conceiving the film D ...

Bryan Fuller interview: Hannibal, elegant horror, Gillian Anderson, & more…

We chat to Bryan Fuller about Hannibal, emulsifying human eyeballs, Lucifer, and elegant vs. exploitation horror…

I have a confession to make. Not one that reflects well on me, but one that bears airing as proof that Hannibal’s Bryan Fuller is a gentleman, a scholar, and - why not - an acrobat. In the window of Covent Garden’s The Hospital Club, the chic venue for our chat with Star Trek: Voyager, Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, and Pushing Daisies writer Bryan Fuller, is a sculpture called Gold Digga. A pair of gilded deer antlers atop a glittery Mondrian painting, it’s a piece about the commodification of art, but to someone – me – fresh from watching episode one of Hannibal, i ...

Exclusive: Frank Spotnitz on The X-Files' potential return to TV

Former executive producer of The X-Files "wouldn't be surprised at all" if the show returned to the small screen...

With the BBC broadcast of Hunted finishing this Thursday, we chatted to series creator Frank Spotnitz about the BBC's decision not to renew the spy drama, the show's public reception, and his plans for the forthcoming HBO/Cinemax Hunted spin-off. That interview will be available to read in full tomorrow, but in the meantime, we thought you might be interested in this little snippet of The X-Files-related chat. As a former executive producer of The X-Files, we first asked Spotnitz what the status was on the franchise's planned third and final film (Spotn ... [Continua a leggere]
