The notion that these two paired together ss "government agents" defies the suspension of disbelief factor. Perhaps they'll change that aspect and just make them part of some "international organization."

Imagine being so excited about the prospects of a remake simply because of a Black race-switch in its leads.
History shows you how many times it's never worked out...by why care about that when it's easier to call anyone RACIST for being less than excited for another hackneyed retread.
I mean,I have to tell you -- I feel played out by THE X-FILES. I honestly don't care about this project at all. Black, white, let it go. And Ryan Cogler? I'm supposed to get excited by his hire? WHy? What FRESH stuff is he going to bring -- the SMOKING MAN being TRANS or something? lol

Somehow I'm hoping something happens to stop this. I have no interest whatsoever in this.

Chris Carter killed this franchise LONG before Coogler got his hands on it. The last season of the original run was TERRIBLE (and it had been coasting on prior glories for a few seasons before that), as was the second movie in 2008 and the pair of lousy "revival" seasons.AndyDursin wrote: Tue Feb 24, 2026 1:21 pm

They're already falling out of favor...look at how horrible the ratings for the latest Star Trek series is, even getting beat out by reruns of King Of Queens!
