After over two decades, Robert Patrick discusses the possibility of reprising his role as Agent John Doggett in Ryan Coogler’s upcoming X-Files reboot, which has been in development since early 2025. Both David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have expressed interest in returning as Mulder and Scully, while Patrick shares his affection for Doggett and his desire to explore the character’s evolution.
