Back by popular demand, Fox gave audiences the premiere of first episode of the iconic sci-fi/horror series at the 2015 New York Comic Con. In the revival of The X-Files, audiences felt right back with paranormal investigators (David Duchovny) and Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi).
As we previously mentioned,13 years have passed since FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully were on the TV screen solving weird and supernatural cases. The reboot of Fox's popular sci-fi series continues with an all-new 6 episode arc. Not only are the leads back to reprise their iconic roles, creator Chris Carter will takeover as showrunner for the franchise that launched his and many other careers.
As we mentioned before, Fox will screen the premiere premiere episode, entitled My Struggle. After the advanced screening, New York Comic Con will host a Q&A session with David Duchovny and Chris Carter. The panel will be moderated by Silicon Valley star Kumail Nanjiani. The exclusive screening and panel was held at the East Coast Convention.
As transcribed by The Wall Street Journal, Duchovny jokingly stated, "I felt like the pencils got the biggest cheer of the night." and then went on to say he was "grateful to all you guys and to [series creator Chris Carter] for making it possible to come back and play this character again." He said it "just feels right" to be bringing the show back now.
Carter adds, "It's a perfect time to be telling X-Files stories. It gives us a lot of stuff to write about."
