Chris Carter stated that Coogler was creating a version of the sci-fi series with “a diverse cast.”

“The X-Files” original creator Chris Carter says Ryan Coogler is developing a reboot of the series.

Carter announced the news during an “On the Coast with Gloria Macarenko” appearance in recognition of “The X-Files'” 30th anniversary, according to Variety. “I just spoke to a young man, Ryan Coogler, who will remount ‘The X-Files’ with a diverse cast. So he’s got his work cut out because we covered so much territory.”

Neither Coogler nor 20th Television, the studio responsible for the original “X-Files,” have commented on Carter’s news.

It can never be as bad as the original series 11th season, right? RIGHT?!

It would be very hard to be as bad as that last season :) Disney is really pushing hard on these former 20th Century Fox IP..they already released Prey, they are working on a new Alien movie and TV series, a new Percy Jackson series, and a new Planet of the Apes movie and now The X-Files..hope they do Alien Nation and Die Hard next :)

They really need to stop reviving classic shows/films.  This guy having produced 'Space Jam: A New Legacy' is all we need to know that this show will be completely terrible.

I remember when I saw that episode years ago, the laugh attack I had when that happened! Good times!

As for the reboot, no thanks. It wouldn't even work in the world of today. The show went pretty deep on subjects like religion, belief, motherhood.

Also, good luck finding actors that can reach the levels of chemistry Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny had.

    • Sihoo Doro C300 Pro V2 Ergonomic Office Chair review: The Ikea of chairs

      By Steven P. · Posted

      Huh? I have an Aeron Remastered and the backrest cannot go up or down (only the lumbar is adjustable). Yes, the Doro C300 Pro V2's backrest can be locked, but the locking mechanism is so weak that when you recline and lean back the backrest moves with your body. I think the whole purpose of this chair is that all of the moving parts (except for the rocking, which can be locked in place) are supposed to move with your body, as you shift your weight, that's why I couldn't get used to it. Some people might like it though. Its redeeming factor is the price, I mean it costs like a quarter of what a new Herman MIller (Aeron) costs.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      I notice how you dodged the questions I had about the racism shown by ignorant, gullible, cowardly people when the Poles, like your partner, were the immigrants. Ahem. I wonder how you'd feel if native born Brits suddenly treated you as "dirty crooked immigrant" for being half Trump-American? If they ordered you to leave and "go back to your corrupt country" (on the other side of the Atlantic), would you go? The truth is based on facts as supported by evidence. As requested in your previous posts, I have used the facts in your own post to show everyone the truth.

      US citizens are paying to their government, who could use that to fund healthcare and tuition and relieve the costs of these for citizens instead of making tax breaks that overwhelmingly favor the rich. I'm not saying that tariffs are the correct solution, but what else would they be used for? What else could Trump have in mind for wanting them, if he hasn't figured out that labor costs are higher in the US?
