“The X-Files” Close to a Return With Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny?!

Published

Way back in January Fox TV Group chairman Gary Newman confirmed that they’re working to resurrect “The X-Files” with both Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny returning as Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, respectively.

Now, a report on TVWise states that 20th Century Fox Television is close to giving an official green-light to a revival of their iconic science fiction series, which originally aired between 1993 and 2002.

They indicate that Fox is close to a deal (nothing signed yet), with plans for a “short-stack” order to accommodate for Anderson and Duchovny’s busy schedules.

While the exact size of the order is yet-to-be-determined, they’re told it will be less than ten episodes (the Daily Mail had a report that it will be six).

The revival is aimed to close out the lingering storylines left by the series proper.

Chris Carter is returning to the helm, will pen the scripts and will also serve as an executive producer on “The X-Files” revival.

Fox is aiming to make a “big announcement” just ahead of their upfront presentation in New York City this coming May, adds the site.

After the disastrous 2008 strike film The X Files: I Want to Believe, I want nothing more than to see Mulder and Scully return to wipe the bad taste out of my mouth and bring “The X-Files” to a new generation of those looking to the sky for answers.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
