With nearly three long months remaining before The X-Files debuts, Fox continues to tease out information about its upcoming continuation of popular show.

The series features Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) together again on the small screen for the first time since the conclusion of the original series 13 years ago, though the two teamed up for the second X-Files film, The X-Files: I Want to Believe in 2008.

The original series premiered in September 1993 and ran for nine seasons and more than 200 episodes. In it, Mulder and Scully investigated unsolved FBI cases that featured unexplained phenomena, with Scully acting as the sceptic to Mulder’s true believer.

To stoke the flames of fan anticipation, Fox has released a new promo video for the series, as well as new key art, featuring what appears to be an alien X-ray from Roswell, New Mexico, along with the tagline “I still want to believe,” a modification of the series’ original catchphrase.

The first of six new episodes of The X-Files is scheduled to air in the US on January 24, after the conclusion of the NFC Championship game. After its special Sunday premiere, the show will settle in its regular timeslot of 8pm on Monday nights on Fox.
