The 'esprit de corps' has persuaded him to return to the much-loved series
It’s a broiling hot July morning in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, and Chris Carter, creator of The X-Files, is patiently giving me an interview in the basement cafe at the Théâtre du Passage, the home of the Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival. By rights, he shouldn’t be here at all. The Californian is midway through shooting a new six-part season of the show that originally ran from 1993 to 2002. He has left Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) back in Vancouver, where the team has recently finished the second episode, to come to Swi ... [Continua a leggere]
Chris Carter breaks down some of the items that can be seen on the set of Mulder’s home in The X-Files 2.0. 1. Vacuum Cleaner “The idea here is that Mulder has kind of moved into his living room. It should suggest something else about Mulder that I won’t spoil, but Mulder has moved into the central room of his house, and everything that might come into play in such a messy house is in that room.” 2. Newspaper Clippings and Graphs on the Wall “There’s a theme here on this wall, a UFO/extraterrestrial theme. This is the accumulation of a man’s obse ... [Continua a leggere]
They’re heeere. It’s been 13 years since we last saw Mulder and Scully investigating little green men and tangling with Cigarette Smoking Man on TV. EW made first contact with the revival as the cameras rolled, and we’ve got the intel and photos to prove it.
THEY ARRIVE BY limo, traveling a bumpy road winding through wild territory. They exit the car looking unmistakably themselves, and not. He’s missing his suit. She’s missing some red in her hair. They are older, of course, but time has only distinguished them, not diminished them. They’ve arrived at the home of a woman living on the fringes of society to investigate exactly the type of mystery that made them icons of an earlier era. More than a decade after The X-Files ended, Fox Mulder and Dana Scully are about to be reintroduced to the world all over again… …W ... [Continua a leggere]
They’re heeeere! David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have reuinted as Mulder and Scully for the X-Files revival series, and EW was first on the scene, getting the scoop as cameras rolled during the very first week of production. On an abandoned farm on the outskirts of Vancouver B.C., we found paranormal detectives Fox Mulder (Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Anderson) investigating the curious case of a possible alien abductee (played by Annet Mahendru of The Americans) at the behest of a most curious ally, the host of a conservative talk show (Community’s Joel McHale). Of course, ... [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 ...

The brains behind Lost, Sex and the City, The X-Files, Empire, Pushing Daisies, and dozens of other beloved shows singled out the line, scene, twist, or episode that’s closest to their heart.
[...] 7. Chris Carter, The X-Files The fourth season of The X-Files was maybe the most intense and difficult season of the show. There was a feature film in the works, a second TV show (Millennium), and right about Christmastime the usual desperation to go somewhere to relax. Typically that meant writing without the phones ringing, and this holiday was no different. My wife and I had gone to Hawaii, where the goal was wake early to rewrite Episode 14, plot the movie with Frank Spotnitz in the afternoon and try to enjoy ourselves otherwise. The best laid plans. My wife got sick, the w ... [Continua a leggere]
Local actors made their marks in five B.C.-filmed seasons
A steady throng of Vancouver actors turned up as guest stars during five B.C.-filmed seasons of The X-Files. The more memorable among them were brought back as recurring characters. Not even onscreen deaths will keep some of those recurring characters from showing up again in the upcoming six-episode X-Files reboot. “As we say on The X-Files, even when you’re dead you’re not dead,” Carter said. “I can tell you that there’s a distinct possibility that you will be seeing many of the regulars that you came to know, whom we cast in Vancouver.” Carter li ...

Chris Carter and Co. will start shooting in Vancouver this month, with an eye on extending the show’s run
The X-Files is coming back to Vancouver to film a six-episode miniseries, and series creator Chris Carter said he and stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are game to stick around for more if the first six go well. “I certainly will leave the door open,” Carter said over the phone from his home up the coast from Los Angeles, where he was at his laptop banging out the script for the first episode. “It’s a huge amount of pressure. I love writing the characters. I love writing the show. I haven’t written the TV show in 13 years ... so I hope it’s going O ... [Continua a leggere]
TORONTO - "The X-Files" creator Chris Carter returns to Vancouver this summer to shoot a new batch of his sci-fi tales, which pick up eight years after we last saw paranormal experts Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. In addition to returning stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, Carter says fans can expect Mitch Pileggi to return as Walter Skinner and William B. Davis as "The Smoking Man," even though that character had been killed off. "As we say in 'The X-Files,' even though you're dead you're never really dead," says Carter, adding there's "a big chance" the Lone Gunmen will also return. ... [Continua a leggere]
Shooting for the new X-Files, starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, begins in B.C. this June
Chris Carter, creator of the X-Files, can't wait to start shooting the series reboot in Vancouver this summer. The paranormal sci-fi series, which always insisted that "the truth is out there," will get a six-episode run on TV next year, Fox announced last month. Stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, who played FBI agents Mulder and Scully, will reprise their roles. Carter will be in Vancouver on Wednesday as the special guest for an industry celebration of National Canadian Film Day, organized by the Vancouver International Film Festival. He spoke to The Early Edition's Ric ... [Continua a leggere]
Series creator talks about Vancouver and B.C.’s role in making the show a hit
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 ...

Part of the truth is out there: We know The X-Files is returning to Fox for a limited, six-episode run. We know it’s being shot in Vancouver, where the first five seasons of the series were shot. And we know David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson will reprise their roles of Mulder and Scully. To find out more, The Globe contacted X-Files creator Chris Carter, who is “basically shackled to his computer,” he said, working on the project. It will shoot through the summer and likely air in early 2016, he says. In addition to being a huge television phenomenon with a fiercely devo ... [Continua a leggere]
After 17 years, the showrunner brings The X-Files home to Vancouver
Chris Carter doesn’t indulge in social media, but he still managed to spawn a trending topic when it was announced that the iconic series he created – The X-Files, about those equally iconic UFO-chasing FBI agents, Mulder and Scully – would be returning to Fox for a six-part event series. Between 1993 and 2002, The X-Files was a veritable cultural phenomenon. The paranormal drama logged 202 episodes over its nine seasons, five seasons of which were shot right here in the 604 before production moved down to Los Angeles. But the event series means more than just a return to a ... [Continua a leggere]
There's just so many people that you'd want to talk to at this moment in X-Files history; the first of which is the show's creator, Mr. Chris Carter. This conversation takes place on March 25th, 2015 as he drives down the California coast and as I sit 3,938 miles away, by my desk with a weak cup of coffee. After the deserved congratulations are exchanged, I tell him that we need to know just how excited he is to come back to The X-Files. "I'm very excited." Carter starts. "I've known about (the greenlight) for quite a long time, the negotiations took so many months, I can't believe it! They w ... [Continua a leggere]
