Afgelopen nacht is in Amerika het elfde seizoen van The X-Files begonnen en is vanaf vanavond te zien in Nederland op FOXnl. Ter promotie van het nieuwe seizoen had de website Collider een interview met Chris Carter de bedenker van de franchise en daar van kan je hier onder alvast een spoiler vrij stukje lezen, in het interview worden ook dingen van de eerste aflevering besproken dus als je deze nog niet gezien hebt is het verstandig dit interview even op pauze te zetten.

Collider: When you did the last season and left some big questions unanswered with an open-ended finale, did you ever worry about not getting to provide those answers, or were you pretty sure that you'd get to at least do one more season?

CHRIS CARTER: I did not know. That had not been negotiated and we didn't know what the ratings would be. As has always been the case with the series, I played it as if that could possibly be the end. In fact, when the main titles came on and we got to that last card, instead of "The Truth is Out There," it said, "This is the End," because my feeling was that it very well could have been.

If you were to make more of The X-Files, would you personally want to do another season or a third movie? And do you think there could ever still be another X-Files movie?

CARTER: It's a good question. I certainly think there could be more X-Files, and I certainly think there could be another X-Files movie. Right now, 20th Century Fox has just been sold to Disney, so I think there are way too many question marks and no answers being provided to me about the future of the show.
