Do you want to believe? The preview for season 11 packs in all the goodies, including at least one character fans thought was dead.
If the new » X-Files » trailer doesn’t give you chills, check your X-Phile membership card, and maybe your pulse.
There’s the Cigarette Smoking Man, a Lone Gunman sighting (dead is never dead in this universe), a troubled Skinner, what appears to be an operation on an alive-and-awake alien, a glimpse at Barbara Hershey’s character Erika Price, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) running through a graveyard, Mulder referring to William as « my son, » a Mulder-Skinner fight and a mix of human as well as alien monsters.
« The truth still lies in the X Files, Mulder, » Scully says, apparently from a hospital bed.
In a Q&A held at New York Comic-Con, series creator Chris Carter said the next season will include « eight standalone episodes, and two mythology episodes, » TV Line reports. Carter also said that Mulder and Scully’s mysterious son William will be a major part of the new episodes, and called his storyline « brilliant. »
Carter wouldn’t confirm if the Lone Gunman seen, Langley, is dead or alive, but he’s definitely in the trailer. Wouldn’t be « X-Files » without an unsolved mystery.
The truth may be out there, but the premiere date isn’t. All we know is that season 11 will air sometime in 2018.
