Agent Jeffrey Spender later appears at Scully 's bedside , revealing that someone is looking for William . He first balks at telling her the location of her son , revealing only the name of the family that adopted him - Van De Kamp . Mulder tails a henchman who he believes will take him to The Smoking Man , but he arrives somewhere else with mysterious conspirators ; Mr. Y ( A.C. Peterson ) and Erika Price ( Barbara Hershey ) . They try to negotiate with Mulder into turning over his son but Mulder refuses . Walter Skinner ( Mitch Pileggi ) tries to meet with Scully , but ca n't find her .

An assassin sent by Mr. Y and Erika enters and tries to suffocate Scully , but Mulder steps in and saves her by slicing the assassin 's neck .

Both of them go on about the experience and their boyfriend , Jackson Van De Kamp . The agents arrive at the Van De Kamp household , the same house Scully saw in her dream . Two gunshots are heard with a third coming from upstairs . Scully goes up and finds the bleeding corpse of Jackson Van De Kamp . As they leave the room and the door clicks closed , the zipper opens slowly . Jackson sits up and escapes the room . Mulder meets with Skinner at the Chimera , telling him to drop the investigation . Mulder confirms that Jackson 's DNA matches Scully 's . At the hospital , Jackson explains to Brianna that he 's been hiding because there are people after him . He reveals that Ghouli does n't exist and it 's just something he `` made up '' . Jackson escapes the hospital after the death of the DOD members . The next day , Scully spots a rural gas station that has a windmill just outside . Scully meets with Peter Wong with Wong mentioning that he wishes he could know her better .

Production ( edit ) In May 2015 , in an interview with Entertainment Weekly , co-star David Duchovny stated that if the 2016 revival were successful , he would be interested in another renewal , stating , `` I would be open to doing another cycle . I do n't know that I could do a 20 - episode version of this show at this point in my life , and I do n't know that Gillian could . But I think everybody is open ended on what happens after this . Certainly , we did n't bring it back with the idea of ending it . '' At the 2016 Television Critics Association panel for the series , creator Chris Carter stated , `` If we do well in the ratings , I ca n't imagine we would n't be asked to do more . '' Fox Television Group chairman and CEO Gary Newman stated that he and fellow executive Dana Walden would be open to another renewal , stating , `` We would love to do this again , so we 'd be on board if schedules can be worked out . '' In an interview with Variety prior to the premiere , co-star Gillian Anderson , Duchovny , and Walden stated their willingness for another renewal . In an interview with TV Guide , Carter reaffirmed plans for more episodes , but stressed that everyone involved is waiting on the success of the season . In May 2016 , Walden confirmed that there had been conversations about an eleventh season possibly for the 2017 -- 18 television season . On April 20 , 2017 , Fox officially announced that The X-Files would be returning for an eleventh season of ten episodes , which would air in the 2017 -- 18 television season after filming in mid-2017 . Writing ( edit ) The writing staff for the eleventh season consists of Chris Carter , Glen Morgan , Darin Morgan , James Wong , and newcomers who were all previously part of The X-Files production staff , Gabe Rotter ( writers assistant ) , Benjamin Van Allen ( writers assistant ) and Brad Follmer ( Carter 's personal assistant ) . In August 2017 , it was announced that three female writers were added to the staff ; Karen Nielsen ( who worked as a script coordinator on season 10 ) wrote one episode , and Kristen Cloke and Shannon Hamblin wrote another episode based on a story by Glen Morgan . The season , consisting of 10 episodes , has two mythology episodes ( the premiere and finale ) and eight standalone episodes ; however , several critics have considered episode five , `` Ghouli '' , to also be a mythology episode . Casting ( edit ) In addition to Duchovny and Anderson , Mitch Pileggi was confirmed to reprise his role , as Walter Skinner . Also returning are William B. Davis as Cigarette Smoking Man and Annabeth Gish as Monica Reyes . In August 2017 , it was confirmed that Robbie Amell and Lauren Ambrose would reprise their roles Agents Miller and Einstein from season ten . In September 2017 , it was announced that Karin Konoval -- who played Mrs. Peacock in the fourth - season episode `` Home '' -- would play new characters in the eleventh season , in what Carter described as a `` tour - de-force performance '' . Anderson commented that this is her final season of The X-Files , saying , `` I 've said from the beginning this is it for me . '' However , Chris Carter affirmed he would not do The X-Files without her character , saying , `` For me , The X-Files is Mulder and Scully . I think if it were without Scully , I would n't do it . That 's not my X-Files . '' The writers intended to bring back Robert Patrick as his character John Doggett , but he was unavailable due to scheduling issues as he was filming for his TV series Scorpion . In February 2018 , Carter stated in an interview that he could see the show continuing without Anderson . Filming ( edit ) Filming began in August 2017 in Vancouver , British Columbia , where the previous season was filmed , along with the show 's original five seasons . After controversy sparked regarding the lack of female writers or directors on the series , it was announced in August 2017 that Carol Banker , a script supervisor on the original series who also directed an episode of The Lone Gunmen and Holly Dale were added as directors . Reception ( edit ) Critical reviews ( edit ) The eleventh season has received generally positive reviews from critics and currently has a Metacritic score of 67 out of 100 based on 18 reviews . On Rotten Tomatoes , the season has an approval rating of 83 % with an average rating of 6.99 out of 10 based on 30 reviews . The site 's consensus reads , `` Though it may not make many new believers , The X-Files return to business as usual is a refreshing upgrade from the show 's underwhelming previous outing . '' Based on the first five episodes available for review , Liz Shannon Miller of IndieWire gave the season a positive review with a `` B + '' grade . While Miller wrote that the season premiere `` is not good '' , she was much more positive of the following four standalone episodes , writing that `` there are some intriguing mysteries , some eerie moments , solid action '' and praised Darin Morgan 's comedy installment , calling it `` fantastic '' . Overall , she concluded , `` Season 11 so far is n't flawless , but it 's a lively , character - focused affair that feels far more unified than we 'd ever anticipated , a massive improvement over Season 10 that gives us genuine hope for the second half . For the first time in a while , we 're truly excited to see more . '' Matt Zoller Seitz of Vulture stated that compared to the previous season , `` This new batch of episodes is considerably stronger . Even the ones that do n't really do much but spin their wheels do so with feeling , and when the show is great -- as it is , yet again , in Darin Morgan 's episode -- it 's downright sublime .
