The X-Files Season 11 Spoilers: Will David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson's Mulder/Scully Return?

By popular demand from fans and critics, Fox is just days away from bringing back their iconic sci-fi/horror series. After the upcoming revival of The X-Files, will agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) returns for more cases in Season 11?

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 two leads back to reprise their iconic roles, creator Chris Carter will takeover as showrunner once again for the franchise that launched his and many other careers.

In an interview with SFX magazine, both leads discuss if there is a possibility of the two reuniting again for another season's worth of episodes.

Transcribed from print by Dread Central, Duchovny reveals, "We have a show that can be comedy, drama, science fiction, mystery, thriller, horror and not feel like it's a different show. Doing six is maybe not enough to show that flexibility, so maybe we have more to do. I don't know, we'll see. Having gone through it again, I think we're all okay with moving forward with more. I don't want to speak for everyone, but I would."

Anderson adds, "It will be an ongoing conversation. We have to see how it does and if people are enthusiastic about it and have the same interest. I think it's all dependent on that."
