Another Season of “The X-Files” is in the Works
During a recent conference call with reporters, Fox TV Group chairmans Dana Walden and Gary Newman both made it clear that there is strong interest in seeing “The X-Files” return for another season, especially after the success of the recent 10th season.
Walden proclaimed, “We have had conversations with Chris Carter and David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. I believe everyone is on board to do another installment of the show,” according to Deadline. However, don’t get your hopes up that we’ll be getting a new season next year as Walden also stated, “…hopefully this season we will be able to get it done and that the same time next year (May), we will have something to announce.” As a result, we’re understanding that new episodes would be part of the 2017-18 season.
Newman added, “Conversations are ongoing. I can tell you that all of them would like to do more of these, and certainly the network and studio want to do more.”
Earlier this year, Fox premiered a 6-episode 10th season of the iconic sci-fi/thriller show, which originally premiered in 1993 and produced two feature-length films. The latest season brought back such stars as Mitch Pileggi and William B. Davis as well as writers James Wong and Darin Morgan. It was one of Fox’s strongest performing programs during its season.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
