The famous Fox Mulder and Dana Scully duo turn the X-files upside down once again. They are back on the big screen starting July 25, some six years after the ending of the TV series.

“The X-Files: I Want To Believe” is set in a very odd location: the Museum of Jurassic Technology, an obscure edifice, where the abnormal, implausible and devious are portrayed with genuineness and worship.

Among the paranormal events which are already traditional for the X-files, the movie reveals the strong connection between FBI special agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), which is taken by director Chris Carter in unforeseen directions. The two partners seem to enjoy not only mystical happenings in what concerns their professional lives, but also a magical bond that lightens up their personal relationship.

However, Gillian Anderson was quite shocked at first and did not feel as comfortable as she used to with impersonating the character that has made her famous. According to the New York Daily News, the 39-year-old actress confessed that she initially found it rather thorny to play Agent Scully, since it was “unexpected and a bit freakish.” Nonetheless, it was playing a scene opposite Duchovny’s Mulder which rescued her from the awkwardness and re-established the natural union between both the characters and actors. “It was definitely the moment that [we] got into the same room together that it felt familiar again,” Gillian Anderson said.

On the other hand, David Duchovny felt relaxed and untroubled returning to his old persona. “I missed the heroic quality of [Mulder] – he’s got a hell of a lot of integrity and he’s a dreamer," Duchovny confessed, as quoted by the Daily News.

“The X-Files” hit the screens in 1993 and rapidly gained an out-of-the-ordinary-devoted audience. More and more fans were attracted to the creepy series portraying constant happenings related to alien visits on Earth and witty detached stories that dealt either with exterminating bugs or grotesque humans who appeared as a result of several generations of inbreeding.
