Coogler’s X-Files Reboot Lands Hulu Pilot With Danielle Deadwyler
Ryan Coogler’s long-gestating X-Files reboot has been greenlit for a Hulu pilot, with Danielle Deadwyler co-starring and Jennifer Yale on board as showrunner. Coogler will write and direct the pilot, produced by Proximity Media with Onyx Collective and 20th Television. The project marks the end of a multi-year push under Coogler’s Disney deal, and centers on two FBI agents who team up to investigate unexplained phenomena in a revived X-Files framework.
