They Live was an amazing production. I had the blu ray release, it was awesome. I got it on Vudu now.

The fallen watchers (wingless immortals) are seen in fictional films as elves and Sci-Fi programs as Spock in Star Trek.

The director/producer of this movie was killed before the release. IMO murder, the said he killed his family then himself.

How was They Live about the Illuminati and not aliens?
What about the two Dan Brown films, the protagonist in neither film was a lone wolf.
Finally you mention that they brought the X-Files back but where is it now..what does that even mean ?
Imagine all the atmosphere of a DaVinci Code-type mystery, cloaked in the arcane, dangerous milieu of ceremonial magic, and you have Magic in the City, my latest novel of 117,407 words. Magic in the City, is the steamy tale of a modern-day New York-based private detective team wrapped up in a mysterious adventure to stop a powerful elitist London-based think-tank, and magical order, the Illuminas Group. This group is determined to wreck havoc in the world using black magic, murder, and domination to wrest control of the world’s hidden elite hierarchy

Also I will add the Vaxxine documentary that came out. I know it is'nt a hollywood movie but Robert d'Niro was involved and he is high profile hollywood.

He is talking about how Hollywood subtly exposes us to the existence of these types of beings in our real world by showing them as virtuous noble beings in the cinema, such as Vulcans and elves.
I assume he is making a connection that the Nephelim are the fallen wingless watchers that are portrayed in film as elves and Vulcans. Romulans arent very nice though.

It is too close to the real world names and institutions. IF you literally changed either the time period (future or past) or even the planet, but kept everything exactly the same save for a few names, they will pick it up. Think about how movies like 300 and Lord of the Rings are actually exposing an underlying and inevitabe conflict between eastern and western powers, which has come to a boiling point this year with both China and Russia inside Syria today with the USA and European partners. Eentually something is going to happen to jump start a grater conflict.
But they shield it by masking it as a historical context, or base it in a fictional time and place of fantasy. However, the underlying theme still resonates, an inevitable battle between Eastern and Western powers.
this is likely what you will have to do in order have the novel picked up by a major publisher.
