The prolific and productive writing-producing team of Glen Morgan and James Wong played a major part in helping Fox-TV's "The X-Files" attain first cult status and eventual mass acceptance and acclaim. As staff writers and co-executive producers, they were responsible for crafting some of the series' most memorable stories and characters. Dour FBI man Assistant Director Skinner, creepy-crawly mutant Eugene Tooms and a delightfully paranoid trio of conspiracy theorists called The Lone Gunmen all sprung from their keyboard. Furthermore Morgan and Wong scripted a number of key episodes that provided crucial background and motivation for the show's two protagonists.

Friends since high school, the pair studied film together at Loyola Marymount University before landing jobs as production assistants for producer Sandy Howard. They began writing screenplays together and had one produced--"The Boys Next Door" (1985), a chilling account of suburban anomie turned deadly, starring Charlie Sheen and Maxwell Caulfield directed by Penelope Spheeris--before hitting a prolonged dry spell.

Morgan and Wong segued to TV and landed jobs as writers and story editors for "Knightwatch" (ABC, 1988), a short-lived crime drama. They honed their skills under the auspices of Stephen J. Cannell Productions working variously as writers, story editors and producers on "21 Jump Street", "Booker" (both Fox, 1989-90), "Wiseguy" (CBS, 1990-91) and "The Commish" (ABC, 1991-93). Morgan and Wong truly blossomed on "The X-Files" (Fox, 1993-95) where they enhanced their reputation for emphasizing character as their primary story-engine. In addition, they demonstrated their skill at delicately balance emotion and humor within their scenes.

Morgan and Wong followed up by venturing out on their own as the creators and executive producers of "Space: Above and Beyond" (Fox, 1995-96), a military sci-fi adventure series inspired by the sensibility of WWII movies. Of course, they also took on a considerable chunk of the writing chores. A few years later, Wong along with Morgan, served as a producer for the NBC series "The Others" (2000). The same year, Wong had his film directorial debut "Fianl Destination" in which he also scripted with Morgan (2000).

Filmography: DragonBall (2009), Final Destination, Final Destination 3, Independence Day, The One, Twin Dragons,
