Ryan Coogler Is Rebooting The X-Files for His Mom
""Like my relationship with Rocky with my dad, The X-Files is one of those things with my mom," he said. "My mom means the world to me - she's actually here tonight - so this is a big one for me. I want to do right by her and the fans. My mom has read some of the stuff I wrote for it. She's fired up.""
"In April of this year, Coogler told Last Podcast on the Leftthat X-Files was "immediately next" on his slate. At Cinespia, Coogler could neither confirm nor deny Danielle Deadwyler as a potential lead for the new series or guest spots from spooky alums David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. The only thing confirmed, he said on Last Pod, is that the show will be "really fucking scary.""
Ryan Coogler took his mother to a Cinespia screening at Hollywood Forever Cemetery on October 17 and credited her with inspiring his new X-Files reboot. Ryan Coogler called The X-Files a mother-associated favorite; his mother has read his scripts and is enthusiastic. News of the reboot's development broke in 2023 and follows Coogler's recent projects. In April Coogler told Last Podcast on the Left that X-Files was "immediately next" on his slate, and at Cinespia Coogler could neither confirm nor deny Danielle Deadwyler as a lead or guest spots for David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. The only confirmed creative detail is that the show will be "really fucking scary."
