Fox to Bring Back X-FILES?

FOX announced some good news for Science fiction fans this weekend.

Newman also said he is "hopeful," about the prospect. Fellow FOX chairman Dana Walden also joined the conversation, saying that if it happens, this reboot will feature the original stars, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. As of yet, the network is working out logistics to get the stars on board.

The creative team has not met yet to further discuss specifics of the series. Creator Chris Carter also hinted at the series making a return summer 2015.

The X-Files is an American Science fiction horror drama television series created by Chris Carter. The program originally aired from September 10, 1993 to May 19, 2002 on Fox, spanning nine seasons and 202 episodes. The series revolves around FBI Special Agents FOX Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) investigating X-Files: marginalized, unsolved cases involving paranormal phenomena. Mulder believes in the existence of aliens and the paranormal while Scully, a skeptic, is assigned to make scientific analyses of Mulder's discoveries to debunk his work and thus return him to mainstream cases. Early in the series, both agents become pawns in a larger conflict and come to trust only each other. They develop a close relationship, which begins as a platonic friendship, but becomes a romance by series end. In addition to the series-spanning story arc, "Monster-of-the-Week" episodes form roughly two-thirds of the episodes. Such stand-alone episodes enrich the show's background while not affecting its ongoing mythology.
