The last episode of the X-Files 10th Season (the 6th episode of the revival) My Struggle II aired on February 22, 2016. Despite being billed as a 6 episode event, the mini season ended on a cliff hanger with Mulder (David Duchovny) being overcome by an alien virus, the alien invasion beginning, and agent Scully (Gillian Anderson) being abducted by the alien invaders. While My Struggle I (season opener) focused on Mulder, My Struggle II focused on Scully. The episode also marked Monica Reyes (Annabeth Gish) first appearance in the revived series. The episode also featured Walter Skinner (Mitch Peleggi), Tad O'Malley (Joel McHale), Agent Einstein (Lauren Ambrose), Agent Miller (Robbie Amell), and the Smoking Man (William B Davis). Fox ended up Green lighting another shortened season (this time 10 episodes) that aired in 2018, which retconned the events of this episode as a vision Scully had of what would happen if her and Mulder did not alter events.

The X-Files is bringing back Mulder and Scully 2.0 for Season 11.

TVLine has learned exclusively that Robbie Amell (The Flash) and Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under) have signed on to reprise their roles as Agents Miller and Einstein in the series’ latest revival (set to bow on Fox in early 2018). It remains unclear how many of Season 11’s 10 episodes they will appear in.

The pair made their X-Files debut in last year’s six-episode revival as FBI special agents who bore more than a passing resemblance to David Duchovny’s Mulder and Gillian Anderson’s Scully. (Amell’s Miller was open to nontraditional ideas and explanations, while Ambrose’s Agent Einstein — a redheaded doctor who chose to make her career in the Bureau — was far more interested in solving mysteries by using clear-cut, irrefutable science.)

There was buzz that Fox and series creator Chris Carter briefly toyed with (but ultimately jettisoned) the idea of launching an X-Files spinoff centered on Miller and Einstein, something Carter neither confirmed not denied. For her part, Ambrose sidestepped the spinoff chatter when we spoke to her last year. “All I know is it was a great place to work and I would love to do more,” she said at the time. “I love working with Chris and David and Gillian. They’re all amazing, talented people… and I would like nothing more than to do more.”
