FOX Confirms X-Files Mini Series Return!!!

After a 13 year hiatus everyone’s favorite extraterrestrial investigators Mulder and Scully are back since FOX Confirms X-Files Mini Series Return.

There have been rumors and stories about an X-Files remake for years and now they’re paying off since Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny will reprise their roles as Mulder and Scully for a 6-episode X-Files Mini Series.

CelebNMusic247.com has this report:

Regardless of some bumps in the road, the show remains one of the most beloved cult shows ever. Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny will reprise their roles and X-Files creator Chris Carter will be the showrunner. It’s unknown when the reboot will air, but production is set to begin this summer. Here’s more, thanks to Variety:

“I think of it as a 13-year commercial break,” Carter said. “The good news is the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories.”

The “X-Files” revival follows last spring’s return of “24” as a 13-episode limited series. NBC has joined the mania for resurrecting series with built-in audience awareness with its plans for the “Heroes Reborn” miniseries next season.

“X-Files” is a natural, as the show about FBI sleuths investigating instances of paranormal activity is tailor-made for social-media obsession — even if it hails from an earlier TV era. “X-Files” had a nine-season run on Fox from 1993-2002. It spawned two feature films, 1998’s “The X-Files: Fight the Future” and 2008’s “The X-Files: I Want to Believe.”

Fox Television Group chairs Gary Newman and Dana Walden shepherded the show on the studio side during its network run. The pair have made no secret of their interest in bringing it back. The new episodes may well spark renewed interest in the show from SVOD platforms, just as the “24: Live Another Day” episodes spurred Fox to cut a rich pact for the entire series library with Amazon Prime, according to Variety.
