‘X-Files: Cold Cases’ Audiobook Release Date, Preorder: Mulder & Scully Reunite To Fight Crime

Audible is releasing "The X-Files: Cold Cases" audiobook, which reunites all the main cast of the popular crime-thriller. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprise their roles as everyone's favorite crime-fighting duo, Mulder, and Scully respectively, as they attempt to solve the cold cases, as the title suggests.

Although not much is known about the kind of cases "The X-Files: Cold Cases" will feature, fans of the cult classic can explain some of the old, familiar faces (or rather voices) to return via the audiobook. Apart from the protagonists, the cast members who will be returning for the latest revival are William B. Davis, Mitch Pileggi, Tom Braidwood, Bruce Hardwood, and Dean Haglund, The Wrap reported.

The "The X-Files: Cold Cases" audiobook will follow a timeline that falls somewhere between the "The X-Files: I Want to Believe" in 2006 and the show's revival last year. It kicks off with a mysterious group of hackers taking possession of the X-files from the FBI headquarters. Mulder and Scully are beckoned out of retirement and needed to dive straight back into hunting down the people responsible for the data breach.

The cult classic briefly made a comeback on TV last year, after it was revived for a Season 10, which consisted of six episodes and ended on a cliffhanger, The Nerdist reported. As fans await the release of the rest of the episodes, revealing the culmination of the show, "The X-Files: Cold Cases" audiobook is something from the franchise to look forward to for the fans of the crime-thriller.  

For fans who are apprehensive whether "The X-Files: Cold Cases" audiobook will have the same thrill as the TV series, the cast has pitched their views on the latest medium of revival in a promotional video. "For the hardcore fans it'll be the exact same thing," said Hardwood, who plays lone gunman John Fitzgerald Byers.

"The X-Files: Cold Cases" audiobook will be released on July 18. However, interested members of Audible can preorder the same today for free. Non-members will be charged $24.95 for pre-orders.
