Carter Bets on Coogler’s X-Files Reboot, Passes the Torch
X-Files creator Chris Carter says he’s handing the series’ legacy to Ryan Coogler and will watch the reboot as a fan, not read the pilot, while remaining an executive producer who won’t interfere. He expects Mulder and Scully to appear, notes Danielle Deadwyler and Himesh Patel lead the new FBI duo, and says Duchovny and Anderson are likely to pop up. Carter also hints at future X-Files projects and discusses reworking his director’s cut of The X-Files: I Want to Believe as he waits to see Coogler’s take.
