The X-Files Revival Trailer: 20 Things You Need To See

10. Paging Dr. Scully

Roughly halfway through the trailer comes our very first glimpse of Dana Scully, which is a tad surprising, given that in the end, her character frequently outshone Mulder, and it was a duo, never one man's journey. That said, it's clearly setting up the rift between the two. In fact, the scene opens immediately after Mulder states that he "can't do it alone." Cue Scully - with somewhat different hair, though not too far from what she had in the most recent feature film. Gillian Anderson has already gone on record as saying the dye process has been extremely damaging, so the change in look is absolutely forgivable. More interesting is that this opening shot of Scully clearly places her in a medical setting. Looks like she has remained in the medical field (she was a practicing doctor in I Want To Believe). Paging doctor Scully!
