After all the teases, speculation and build up, The X-Files re-introduced Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully's (Gillian Anderson) son William in Wednesday's episode. When the agents investigate a case in which two teenage girls attacked each other thinking they had each been fighting a creature known as Ghouli, they quickly discover the case is far more complicated than they ever imagined when they learn both girls had been dating Jackson Van De Kamp — a high schooler who shares the same last name of the couple who adopted William all those years ago. Unfortunately, before th ... [Continua a leggere]

After nearly 16 years, Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Mulder (David Duchovny) finally reunited with William (Miles Robbins), who is now known as Jackson Van De Kamp... albeit with a very X-Files twist. The duo wound up back in their son's orbit thanks to an open X-file and Scully's mysterious vision, but things quickly turned tragic when it appeared he had died. However, it turned out that William's powers were greater than anyone anticipated: He was able to project images to other people to manipulate their perception of what was going on, thus tricking everyone into thinking he was ...

Fans of The X-Files know that the writing team of James Wong and Glen Morgan has produced some of the creepiest episodes of the series. "Squeeze," "Tooms," "Home" -- they all rank as series classics, which are still referenced with reverence today. The duo actually left to create their own series, Space: Above and Beyond (1996), but remained in the world of Chris Carter shows, writing episodes of The X-Files until 1997, and for the series, Millennium and The Lone Gunmen. Wong and Morgan also started the Final Destination franchise, co-writing the first and third films, with Wong directing the ... [Continua a leggere]

Mulder and Scully entered a dark apartment, their flashlights on. They were searching for, what else, the truth. Scully went off by herself. "Mulder!" she shouted from off camera. She found something. Mulder turned and walked toward her voice. End scene. I was there. And I was verklempt. Yes, I'm talking full on tears in my eyes, hand clutching my chest. I was on set of The X-Files; Mulder and Scully are back and I was there to witness a piece of TV history. When The X-Files premiered in 1993, I was six years old. I knew it existed because my dad was a loyal viewer. He was in front of the TV ... [Continua a leggere]

The set-up is classic “X-Files.” A top-secret location. The corpse of a victim snuffed out under mysterious circumstances. A shady official managing the situation. FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully trying to uncover the truth. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have played scenes like this over a hundred times before. It should be a cakewalk. But on this August afternoon on a Vancouver soundstage, nothing’s going right. The actors are tripping over their lines. They can’t hear writer-director James Wong’s cues through the walls of the set from his perch behi ... [Continua a leggere]

One of our favorite genre shows is FOX’s “The X-Files,” while one of our favorite horror movies is New Line Cinema’s 2000 Final Destination. What if the two were nearly one in the same? We got in touch with Final Destination creator Jeffrey Reddick (@jeffreyareddick) who had a shocking never-before-seen relic to share exclusively with Bloody Disgusting readers. Dated 1994, Reddick has made available (exclusive to Bloody Disgusting) the unused script for his “X-Files” pitch, ‘Flight 180.’ “I was really exciting to find it on old floppy d ...

Glen Morgan and James Wong are also set to direct one episode apiece, while Glen Morgan will also serve as an executive producer.

The truth is simple: Chris Carter loves Vancouver. The creator of hit sci-fi show The X-Files is coming back to the B.C. coast this week to be the guest speaker at a Vancouver International Film Festival Industry panel being held on National Canadian Film Day on April 29. Carter has been invited to discuss The X-Files’ deep connection to the TV and film industry in B.C. since its creation in 1993. Carter arguably opened the province’s doors to American television and film artists when he decided to shoot The X-Files in Vancouver and B.C. for its first five seasons, before taking ...

“THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE”. So promised The X-Files, the groundbreaking sci-fi saga that debuted 20 years ago this fall. But the maxim that appears in the show’s credits- the mantra of questing FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson)- was supposed to be something else. Creator Chris Carter forgets the original phrase, but he remembers that it wasn’t good. With time running out, and Carter hating the entire cretits sequence in general, the producer began brainstorming ideas for images (germinating seeds, a man’s morphing face) and wo ...

In occasione del Comic Con 2013 si è svolto un panel per festeggiare il 20° anniversario della serie cult X-Files. Presenti i due attori protagonisti, David Duchovny e Gillian Anderson, l’ideatore Chris Carter e i produttori esecutivi Vince Gilligan e Howard Gordon. Correva l’anno 1993 quando in TV esordiva un giovane agente dell’FBI, bistrattato da tutti i colleghi per il suo modo di approcciare i casi misteriosi e inspiegabili: Fox Mulder. Le sue indagini sulla sparizione della sorellina Samantha (avvenuta anni prima) ed il suo modo di pensare lo rendono un peri ... [Continua a leggere]

Last year Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan and his girlfriend Holly were talking with my TV Guide Magazine bosses, and the topic of The X-Files came up. Vince reminded them that The X-Files was about to hit its 20th anniversary, and Holly suggested a panel -- perhaps at Comic-Con. The truth is out there. And here's the backstory on how we wound up putting together what I believe, not so humbly, was one of the highlights of this year's Comic-Con. My editor Debra Birnbaum emailed me last fall: Did I think we could pull off a panel devoted to the all-star writers and producers of The X-Files? ... [Continua a leggere]

The truth is out there, but after 20 years, it's not always so easy to recall all the details. TV Guide Magazine West Coast bureau chief Michael Schneider sparked the memories of The X-Files stars David Duchovny (Fox Mulder) and Gillian Anderson (Dana Scully), along with show creator, Chris Carter, at the July 18 Comic-Con panel celebrating the 20th anniversary of Fox's landmark sci-fi mystery series.Duchovny and Anderson, who rarely appear at such fan events, kicked off the audience hysteria by entering the darkened stage brandishing their character's familiar flashlights. "Thank you all for ... [Continua a leggere]
