‘The X-Files’ Writer Frank Spotnitz Returns to Sci-Fi With Newen Connect’s ‘We Come in Peace’: ‘It’s Compelling, Thought-Provoking and Deeply Human’ (EXCLUSIVE)


The series produced by Piodor Gustafsson for TV4 Sweden and ZDF will be pitched at London TV Screenings

“ The X-Files ” executive producer and writer Frank Spotnitz and his London-based Big Light Productions have boarded event Swedish sci-fi “We Come in Peace” as a co-producer, Variety has learned in exclusivity on the eve of London TV Screenings. “We humans don’t really know about outer space and perhaps in 200 years, we will look back at our time, and feel we were quite ignorant,” says Lundström who first played with the idea for the show after reading the short story “Queer Nouveau 2.0” by Anders Fager a decade ago. To contain the costs, the production relied as much as possible on SFX rather than VFX, under the supervision of Tom Olsson, CEO of Infinite Entertainment (a former subsidiary of visual effects outlet Goodbye Kansas) who worked closely with a large team across three European territories to find solutions.
