Fox has commissioned a second 10-episode series of The X-Files event series.
Actors David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reinhabited their roles as (veteran) FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully for a revival of the paranormal spine tingler in 2016, some 13 years after the pair's original 1993 outing. After the success of the revival, which drew an average audience of around 16 million viewers, the show is coming back for a second time, Entertainment Weeklyreports.
“Iconic characters, rich storytelling, bold creators — these are the hallmarks of great TV shows,” Fox president David Madden told EW. “And they are some of the reasons why The X-Files has had such a profound impact on millions of fans worldwide."
