To prepare for the January premiere of The X-Files event series, Fox has announced a 201-day X-Files marathon in a new promo video that features the first footage of Mulder and Scully's highly anticipated return.
From Fox: "We're counting down to the next chapter of The X-Files! Join us as we watch 1 episode a day starting with the pilot on 7.7.15, all the way to the Series Finale on 1.23.16."
Executive produced, written, and directed by series creator Carter, The X-Files six-episode event series will premiere on Sunday, January 24th, between 10:00pm - 11:00pm EST after the NFC Championship game on Fox. The second half of the two-part premiere will air at 8:00pm EST the following night on Monday, January 25th, with subsequent episodes also airing on Monday nights. Filming on the event series is now underway.
"The next mind-bending chapter of THE X-FILES debuts with a special two-night event beginning Sunday, Jan. 24 (10:00-11:00 PM ET/7:00-8:00 PM PT), following the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, and continuing with its time period premiere on Monday, Jan. 25 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). The thrilling, six-episode event series, helmed by creator/executive producer Chris Carter and starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI Agents FOX MULDER and DANA SCULLY, marks the momentous return of the Emmy Award- and Golden Globe-winning pop culture phenomenon, which remains one of the longest-running sci-fi series in network television history."
