From IMDB

: The X-Files creator Chris Carter has signed with CAA. Carter had been a longtime client of Bob Broder, first at Bwcs and most recently at ICM following the agencies’ 2006 merger. After a decade away from TV, Carter last fall teamed with Mrc to shop female-driven mystery thriller spec Unique, which ultimately didn’t sell. He is attached as an executive producer to another spec, written by feature scribe Jon Bokenkamp, which is being shopped to cable networks by Sony TV. In addition to The X-Files, which ran on Fox for 9 seasons, Carter created Harsh Realm and Millennium and co-created the X-Files spinoff The Lone Gunmen. Since The X-Files ended its run in 2002, Carter has stayed largely out of the spotlight, only resurfacing to do the 2008 X-Files movie sequel and the upcoming thriller Fencewalker. There has been talk recently about a potential third X-Files movie. »

A lot of people had negative comments about the second X-Files movie. If they were to make a third one, it had better be good. What amazes me is out of all that Chris has produced, MLM comes in second, and he never made a movie. 3 seasons is still doing good, especially considering Harsh Realm and The Lone Gunmen didn't make it past the first. Has Chris ever given a statement as to why he never made a MLM movie?

I think he would do it if he had the chance. The question should be asked to FOX.

Hi Laurent, nice to see you again.

Would FOX have a say-so with a movie for the theaters?

Hi Laurent, nice to see you again.

they sure could. It happened to Stargate SG-1; they were given permission to do tv but when they wanted to do movies they were stopped from releasing them to theaters and had to settle for made for tv movies. its all in the fine print !
