X-Files Casting News

This, I'm excited about. Any information regarding Lawless' new character is being kept hush-hush, per usual, but since she's appearing in the first two episodes of the season, I'm going to assume that she has something to do with Mulder's departure. Or at the very least has knowledge of why he leaves. I wonder if she's going to be a new bad guy. There would be a weird sort of symmetry to that - Lucy Lawless attended the acting school run by William B. Davis, who of course played the Cigarette Smoking Man until his untimely (and unaccepted by this viewer) death at the end of the seventh season.
