Sinners and Black Panther director Ryan Coogler is still plugging away at his mystery X-Files project, but now we have the very first response from someone who has read the scripts – his own mother.
As revealed by Variety during a Sinners screening at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, Coogler signed on to the X-Files reboot because his mother was a mega-fan of the original series, which ran from 1993-2002 and then returned for a sequel series from 2016-2018.
