X-Files Is Back at Hulu: Ryan Coogler, Danielle Deadwyler, and a Big Reboot Question
In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the new X-Files reboot update, including Hulu’s pilot order, Ryan Coogler writing and directing, and Danielle Deadwyler joining as one of the two leads. We also get into what the new setup means for the franchise, why this could work for both longtime fans and brand-new viewers, and whether bringing back legacy cast members would help or hurt a fresh start.
00:00 Hulu orders the X-Files pilot and Danielle Deadwyler joins as a lead
00:17 Ryan Coogler writing and directing, plus hopes for a strong reboot
00:29 Should the original cast return or should the show fully reset
00:42 Listener prompt and comment question for the audience
Hulu has officially ordered a pilot for the new X-Files series.
Ryan Coogler is attached to write and direct the pilot.
Danielle Deadwyler is one of the two main leads.
The reboot follows two FBI agents assigned to a long-shuttered division investigating unexplained phenomena.
The show is being framed as a way to bring back longtime fans while also welcoming new viewers.
A big fan debate is already here: bring back original cast members in small roles, or keep it a full reboot.
“Hulu just ordered the pilot for X-Files.”
“There should be something for everyone.”
“Should they bring back the old cast to go for a full reboot?”
