Hulu has released an R-rated director's cut of the 2008 X-Files film directed by Chris Carter, with the revised title "The X-Files: I Want to Believe–Vrach Frankenshteyn," which restores Carter's original horror vision for the project [1]. The theatrical version earned $68 million at the box office against a production budget of $30 million [1]. The film's release subsequently led to a television revival of the franchise [1].
The original film sparked renewed interest in the X-Files universe, leading to the premiere of Season 10 in 2016 with six episodes reuniting Mulder and Scully after a 14-year separation [1]. This was followed by Season 11 in 2018, which comprised 10 episodes and focused on the agents' search for their missing son, William [1]. A Hulu reboot series helmed by filmmaker Ryan Coogler is currently in development [1].
