With news of “The X-Files” returning as a six-episode event series, it was only a matter of time until creator Chris Carter started filling in the blanks for excited fans. Recently fansite X-Files News caught up with Carter, who dropped the following on eager fans.
“I have ideas for everyone,” he explains at the mention of the possibility of having Mitch Pileggi, Annabeth Gish, and Robert Patrick reprise their iconic roles. “Their availability is subject to their regular paying jobs. Of course, I’d like to bring everyone possible back, but it’s who’s going to fit into the story and who’s available. I don’t want to reveal all my tricks, but I can tell you there will be some obvious choices, and there will be some surprises.
When queried about the writers and producers that could join his team, Carter confirms that Glen Morgan will be coming back in a producorial position. “We’ve lured Darin Morgan and Jim Wong; we’re very excited about that, and we’re working on the rest.”
