'X-Files' 2016: Will The Series Really Go 'Home Again'? Author Talks Ominously Titled Episode
Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) will jump back into action this January, and TV Line reports that the series revival may spawn the next generation of paranormal Feds. Rumors are starting to fly regarding the future of The Flash's Robbie Amell and Dig's Lauren Ambrose.
The pair will portray Agent Miller and Agent Einstein, respectively, and are set to pair up in at least one of the six revival episodes. While this may seem like a perfect set up for a backdoor pilot, X-Files creator Chris Carter has yet to confirm any potential plans for a new Fox series.
"People can speculate, but [Amell and Amborse's contracts] weren't negotiated that way," Carter told TV Line at New York Comic Con. Diplomatically adding that right now he is "focused on doing the show with David and Gillian."
