‘X-Files’ Season 11 First Look Hints At What’s To Come

The other image shows an episode set in the past that reveals more of the backstory of the the villainous Cigarette Smoking Man (William B. Davis), a character who is apparently immortal as far as this show is concerned. In a smoky room, a young CSM stands with two other people looking on as a shadowy gray alien lingers in the background.

Carter also talks about more lighthearted episodes, the return of Annabeth Gish’s Agent Reyes and Mitch Pileggi’s Assistant Director Skinner, new characters, and much more. The upcoming season drew some much-deserved criticism when it was announced that it would feature an all-male writer’s room and only male directors. Carter thankfully rectified that by hiring more female writers and directors. Hopefully the new writers and directors will liven up the series and rectify the mistakes of season 10.

The X-Files season 11 will air sometime in early 2018.
