The live-action “The X-Files” series may be no more but the beloved franchise is set to continue with animated series “The X-Files: Albuquerque,” TV Line is reporting today.
“The X-Files” creator Chris Carter is attached to executive produce the “animated comedy series” for Fox. The series will not revolve around Dana Scully and Fox Mulder.
TV Line explains. “Rather, the potential series will center an office full of misfit agents who investigate X-Files cases too wacky, ridiculous or downright dopey for Mulder and Scully to bother with. They’re essentially the X-Files’ B-team.”
The project has been given a script commitment, with Rocky Russo and Jeremy Sosenko (“Paradise PD”) attached to write the pilot episode and executive produce.
