Fox has released the first piece of footage from their
highly anticipated 6-episode revival of the X-Files, which will see the return
of David Duchovny as Fox Mulder, Gillian Anderson as Dana Scully, Mitch Pileggi
as Skinner, and William B. Davis as the Cigarette Smoking Man.
New to the franchise are Joel McHale as Ted O'Malley, a
conservative news anchor that asks Mulder for help, and Annet Mahendru as Svet,
a woman claiming that aliens abduct her regularly.
The X-Files premieres on January 24, 2016.
Thirteen years after
the original series run, the next mind-bending chapter of THE X-FILES will be a
thrilling, six-episode event series helmed by creator/executive producer Chris
Carter, with stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson re-inhabiting their
roles as iconic FBI Agents FOX MULDER and DANA SCULLY. This marks the momentous
return of the Emmy- and Golden Globe Award-winning pop culture phenomenon,
which remains one of the longest-running sci-fi series in network television
history. Production on THE X-FILES event series is set to begin in summer 2015.
THE X-FILES originally premiered in September
1993. Over the course of its nine-season run, the influential series went from
breakout sci-fi favorite to massive global hit, and became one of the most
successful television dramas of all time. The show, which earned 16 Emmy
Awards, five Golden Globes and a Peabody Award, follows FBI special agents
Scully (Anderson) and Mulder (Duchovny), as they investigate unexplained cases
– “X-Files” – for which the only answers involve paranormal phenomena.
