First Footage of THE X-FILES Revival in 201 Day Marathon Promo
FOX has released a promo trailer that announces a 201-day marathon leading up to the premiere of The X-Files Season 10! The spot includes our first footage from the upcoming revival, and I'm incredibly thrilled! You have to understand I'm a huge fan of this franchise; I'm just as much a fan of this show as I am for stuff like Star Wars. It's so cool to see David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson back in action as FBI Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
The marathon will consist of showing one episode a day from seasons 1-9 in order. So if, for some reason you've never watched the show before, you have no excuses now! The six new episodes of The X-Files will premiere on January 24th, 2016. I really hope to see this series explode with success once again.
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.
