After chatting with Jimmy Kimmel on JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE about the show and the state of the world, Kimmel, a long-time X-FILES fan, asked Anderson to play a game with him: Identify whether plotlines happened on the Fox series or were made up.

Gillian Anderson and Tom Hanks stopped by THE LATE LATE SHOW while it was in London, and host James Corden helped the duo realize they had similar fears: performing music. (Anderson sang during a recent theater run; Hanks previously played guitar while his wife, Rita Wilson, sang.)

Naturally, that meant the duo needed to actually do a little song together. Hanks pulled out a guitar and played The Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” while Corden convinced Anderson to sing a little bit… Read more

It’s difficult to single out a definitive episode of THE X-FILES, a show that never wanted to be easily defined. But if you had to try, you could do a lot worse than “How the Ghosts Stole Christmas,” a holiday treat that comes almost dangerously close to embodying everything that makes Fox Mulder and Dana Scully work.

In Wednesday’s episode of THE X-FILES “Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) find themselves targets in a deadly game of cat and mouse.” And while the duo has found themselves in tough spots before, the hour, “Rm9sbG93ZXJz”—written by Shannon Hamblin & Kristen Cloke, and directed by Glen Morgan—is told with only a handful of lines of dialogue.

Check out some photos from the ambitious installment:

Fox Boss Gary Newman on a Potential X-FILES Revival

January 17, 2015 by  
Filed under The X-Files

The X-Files Added to Paley LineupFox Television Group Chairman and CEO, Gary Newman, told reporters at the end of the Fox TCA exec session that there were early talks about potentially bringing X-FILES back for an event series.

After the panel, when Newman spoke with reporters, I asked him what the progress was of a potential series, and who would actually be attached.

“What I can say is that if this happens, it’ll be with David [Duchovny (Mulder)] and Gillian [Anderson (Scully)] reprising their roles,” Newman said. “[X-FILES creator] Chris [Carter] is interested, both David and Gillian are interested. Scheduling is very difficult. David has his show, Gillian is doing something in the UK. I really don’t know how fast it can happen, but there are ongoing conversation happening.”

So, um…anyone else excited?!
