Hollywood Reporter asked McHale about his upcoming role opposite David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson on the The X-Files redo.
You’re on the X-Files reboot. What can you say about the new series?
I’m an alien and I kill both Mulder and Scully and it’s over. It
happens in the first episode and the next five looks back on what
happened. No, you can imagine how much I can say. I’m playing a
conservative talk show host and it’s the time of my life. I loved that
show growing up. Duchovny and Anderson have a chemistry that comes along
once in a century. And it’s one of the best-written shows to ever
exist.
