The X-Files reboot is slowly moving ahead with Sinners director Ryan Coogler the mastermind behind the new series. We also know that it will feature two new leads, played by Till's Danielle Deadwyler and The Odyssey's Himesh Patel.
However, there has been a question mark over just how connected it will be to the original series, which starred David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Now it seems like Chris Carter, who created the show, has let slip a key connection.
