This last weekend news broke that FOX is in discussions to bring back Chris Carter's The X-Files as a limited series. There was no word on whether David Duchovny or Gillian Anderson would reprise their roles at the time of the initial report, but the network wants them to come back.
It looks like if this all goes through though, Duchovny is ready to return as Fox Mulder! The actor recently talked to USA Today and said that he’s “more than happy and excited to bring it back and do it again with [co-star] Gillian [Anderson] and [series creator] Chris [Carter].” He added:
“I’m assuming that it will happen sooner rather than later now. We’ll see what form, how many [episodes]. Certainly I can’t nor would I be interested in doing a full season. It will be in some kind of limited form. We’re all old, we don’t have the energy for a full season.”
As a long time fan of The X-Files, I'll take whatever I can get! This is really exciting for me and a lot of other fans out there. It looks like the stars are aligning for this limited series, and it could actually happen! If it does, I can't wait to see what story they will tell. I'll keep you updated on any new developments.
What would you like to see in the series return?
