Finally…Real "X-Files" Spoilers From Chris Carter
For a while I was reeling over the gads of rumors about the still Un-named X Files 2 sequel. I’m happy to report that there is some real news about this FBI drama film. It comes courtesy of X-Files creator Chris Carter, and Frank Spotnitz as they and others recently met at the Paley Television Festival.
The film “takes place in the present”, and the “sprawling alien mythology” is not part of the plot, according to Carter. He also said that Fox has ideas on what the name of the film should be. Could this mean there’s disagreement in the air?
If you were wondering if Mulder and Scully are still FBI agents in the movie, take heart, as the film is “true to Mulder and Scully, who they are and where they would be this point in their lives” and all of the experiences they had. I’m not sure if this clears things up, but at least we know a bit more of the truth.
It was revealed that there is a “reference” to Scully’s son, William, who was later adopted in the TV series. I’m glad we don’t have to pretend that Scully never had a son, because that would be awkward for anyone, even with a film character.
It seems this is going to be a very different film. Yet it will still explore Mulder and Scully’s relationship, which I think is mainly what we all want….to see if our favorite FBI heroes ultimately are happy, and whether they get to walk off into the sunset together (after handling some new threat that befalls us all of course).

UPDATE: You can read the related interviews of Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz over at E!Online. The second teaser trailer was on YouTube, but then taken down per Fox.
