New ‘X-Files’ Photos Are Out There
By Russ Fischer/June 25, 2015 2:30 pm EST
EW has the new photos, and the lead duo appears on the cover of this week’s magazine.
Seen in the second and fourth photos, Annet Mahrendu (The Americans) plays Sveta, “who believes she is regularly abducted by aliens.” Joel McHale (Community), pictured in the third image, plays “a conservative talk show host who asks Mulder and Scully to do some paranormal investigating.”
You can see a few more photos via the EW link above; one shows the title page of the script for the first episode — that episode bears the title “My Struggle,” though who the “my” refers to is unknown at this point.
In addition to the new and returning cast seen above, Mitch Pileggi will be back to play Walter Skinner, and William B. Davis will return as the Cigarette-Smoking Man. There are rumors of appearances from Annabeth Gish and Robert Patrick, as well as talk of a visit by the The Lone Gunmen (Bruce Harwood, Tom Braidwood, and Dean Haglund).
