Ever since word broke earlier this year that The X-Files will be reopened for a limited run next year, you’ve been wondering how Mulder and Scully will look in the new six-episode series. Well, given that we know what David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson look like, it’s not hard to guess, but here comes photographic evidence courtesy of the series’ official Twitter account.

EXCLUSIVE: Your first look at Mulder and Scully! [#TheXFiles](https://twitter.com/hashtag/TheXFiles?src=hash) [pic.twitter.com/UexSfktTbA](http://t.co/UexSfktTbA) > > — The X-Files (@thexfilesfox) [June 10, 2015](https://twitter.com/thexfilesfox/status/608660418949578754)

Yes, it’s not the typically glamorous studio shot or posed set photo we’re used to – this is taken from a monitor on the production. But it’s enough to see that Mulder appears to have let himself go in the years since the second film, while Scully still dresses like she belongs in the FBI.

Quite where we’ll find them and what they’ll be up to is another matter, but we do know that Mitch Pileggi is also back and that Joel McHale (who has been posting less-than spoiler-filled tweets of his own from the shoot) will be aboard, playing the anchor of an internet news service who becomes an unlikely ally for Mulder. The cameras are cranking now with the show set to debut in the States on January 14. The truth is very much still out there...
