Seven New “X-Files: I Want to Believe” Movie Stills
We now have seven new shots from the upcoming “X-Files: I Want to Believe,” which feature a look at David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Amanda Peet, Xzibit and Billy Connolly.
When a group of women are abducted in the wintry hills of rural Virginia, the only clues to their disappearance are the grotesque human remains that begin to turn up in snow banks along the highway. With officials desperate for any lead, a disgraced priest’s questionable “visions” send local police on a wild goose chase and straight to a bizarre secret medical experiment that may or may not be connected to the women’s disappearance. It’s a case right out of The X-Files. But the FBI closed down its investigations into the paranormal years ago. And the best team for the job is ex-agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dr. Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), who have no desire to revisit their dark past. Still, the truth of these horrific crimes is out there somewhere… and it will take Mulder and Scully to find it!
The Chris Carter-directed film is scheduled to hit theaters on July 25th.
