INTERVIEW WITH CHRIS CARTER

How are you, Chris?

I’m very well thank you. I’m actually in Vancouver – sort of on a working holiday, but I’m not in production.

Oh sure, there’s an X-Files exhibit there right now, isn’t there? (It ran through June 30 at the Back Gallery Project, which is run by Carter’s friend Monica Reyes — and no, it’s no coincidence that she shares a name with the FBI agent. by Annabeth Gish!)

Yes, they have all of Mulder’s office there.

Wrong side of the ocean for us unfortunately! We’re in an interesting position right now with The X-Files, aren’t we? Where are things right now with a possible twelfth season?

That’s a very good question. Right now, of course, that’s in the air, in terms of Gillian’s (Anderson) interest in doing the show. I think she said she finished her run. It certainly changes things, and also selling Fox to Disney or Comcast – it sounds like Disney now – I think that’s going to change things, and they’ll definitely watch the show and wonder what its future would be. So right now we’re playing a wait-and-see with all these variables.

You’ve said in the past that there are still stories to be told in The X-Files, and you’ve written a third movie script…

You know, again, it’s about Gillian’s involvement. For me, The X-Files is Mulder and Scully, so even though we did the show without David (Duchovny), without Mulder, for a while I always felt like his science was central from the Serie. Ultimately, it’s a science show, and that makes it very important.

In my mind, this is what differentiates The X-Files from other similar series: instead of the lonely man-on-a-mission character, you also have this more skeptical voice.

We saw some really interesting developments in Mulder and Scully’s relationship in Season 11. Now that Scully is pregnant again, how do you see that relationship developing in a hypothetical future season/movie?

We still have the show in real time, so I imagine if we came back, there would be a passage of time, and Scully would have had this baby – or not. We might also discover unexpected things about this child, so there are a lot of unanswered questions and interesting things.

The X-Files have always focused on the perils of technology and the perils of modern society, but current concerns have mutated from those of the 90s and early 2000s. How have you reorganized the major themes of the show to adapt them to those of the times in which we live?

We have entered strange new ground in which the FBI is under attack. It is one of the enemies of the state, according to the commander-in-chief at the moment. It’s interesting – The X-Files, in its 25 years, has gone through four different administrations, and the fact that we would come to a point where conspiracies are the norm and the truth is assailed is a complete reversal of that. where we come from, so those were some interesting things to play with, and I think we played with them in season 11 and did a good job with that. I think we would continue to play with them in terms of social media, robotics, AI, all those things, as part of our storytelling success.

In December 2017, The New York Times published an article about a secret Pentagon program to investigate UFOs. You have said in the past that you suspected the existence of such a project. It must have been quite satisfying to be vindicated after all these years…

(laughs) It was! I mean, it was their own X-Files, they spent 20 million dollars investigating UFOs. I found that fascinating. One of the most fascinating parts is that it was done in secret. It certainly emphasizes what we’ve been saying all along, that the government has secret programs. We now have a new military wing called the Space Force, and last season we talked about secret space programs, which also makes us happy.

You’ve already mentioned that The X-Files eschews didactic, moralistic storytelling in favor of more subtle strategies, like the great mid-20th century shows like The Twilight Zone. Is this still your favorite approach?

I think yes. The show is very different from The Twilight Zone, although that was an inspiration to me. This is a more serialized and investigative show, whereas The Twilight Zone was allegorical, self-contained, illogical episodes. So I think if there are similarities – we’re dealing with the unknown – the differences are more pronounced than the similarities.

Dean Haglund (Langley) was pretty hard to track down, right?

Yeah, he moved to Australia. We were able to do his work remotely, so he didn’t have to be physically with us in Vancouver.

Well, technology has some advantages…

Yeah! (Laughs)

Do you have any favorite episodes from these last two short seasons?

I have to say there are four of them and they are all sort of equal. I loved the AI ​​episode this season which starts with Mulder and Scully in the sushi bar (Rm9sbG9eZX.Jz). I loved Darin Morgan’s episodes from last season and this season (Mulder And Scully Meet The Were-Monster and The Lost Art Of Forehead Sweat), and I really liked the season finale (My Struggle IV ) this season. It hit several chords perfectly.

It’s been 25 years since The X-Files began. How would you explain the show’s enduring cultural presence?

I’d like to think it’s the storytelling, I’d like to think it’s the production values, and I’d like to think it’s the real-time stories about real science, but I really think it all comes down to it ultimately to Mulder and Scully. These characters and their relationship are what people have identified with and keep coming back to.

New projects for you on the horizon?

No, nothing at the moment. I have my thinking cap, but no. Of course, being here in Vancouver, it always makes me think.
