Mulder and Scully reopened X-Files, the truth is still out here!

Production will begin in next few months in summer 2015.

Hope the new series will set around December 2012 at the time of alien colonization, I would be surprised and disappointed if it not then guess we will wait a long time for X-Files 3 movie.

I think you've posted the wrong link http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-r...les-return-tv-david-duchovny-gillian-anderson

Surprised they managed to get both Duchovny and Anderson for it.

It's only a 6 episode special event.

Hope it's closer to the early ones than later.

Fantastic news. X files took up a good chunk of my life

Gillian Anderson? Naked? ... Count me in !

As has been said earlier in the thread, let's hope it channels the spirit of the early episodes. There was a time, towards the end of the first season that the X-Files became borderline 'event telly'. Sadly, it didn't last.

I stuck with it to the end, but it became hard work.

As for Gillian... she was serious business in the mid to late 90's.

Great news, will be six episodes of heaven.

Castiel · 25 Mar 2015 at 09:56

I'm so goddamned excited I nearly peed my pants.

No1newts · 25 Mar 2015 at 10:00

Nice!

boxman2000 · 25 Mar 2015 at 10:04

Brilliant stuff. Only thing I'm not sure about is the whole 6 episode thing as certainly the first 1/2 dozen seasons were mainly filler episodes (not necessarily in a bad way) with the main story arch making up about 20% of the remaining episodes.

I don't think many TV shows did the feature length episodes quite as well as X-Files (apart from perhaps TnG).

Wonder if Mark Snow will reprise his composer role (done a great job on Blue Bloods).

And as for Gillian... wow, made being an 80's child a glorious thing

I can't imagine that it will be anywhere near as good but exciting news!

Grandmaster Fap! · 25 Mar 2015 at 11:36

Amazing! Shirley they would have to go back to the alien invasion arc?

ZXSpectrum · 25 Mar 2015 at 13:46

They should let Duchovny play Mulder as Hank Moody. Smoking weed, snorting coke and banging anything that moved human or otherwise.
