The cult-favorite characters are back to take on the supernatural in a six-episode reboot of The X-Files set to premiere in 2016 on Fox.

Fans have long awaited the return of the Emmy Award-winning drama. The original show created by Chris Carter, premiered in September 1993 and ran for nine seasons, and there were two X-Files movies – one in 1998 and another in 2008.

The first glimpse of what we’ll see next year doesn’t disappoint, complete with strange tools, dead bodies and, of course, the show’s classic eerie theme song.

David Duchovny, and costar Gillian Anderson, starred as investigators Mulder and Scully, who solved cases involving paranormal phenomena.

The new series of The X-Files is expected to be a mixture of “monsters and mythology”, according to David Duchovny and will explore standalone cases as well as addressing the overarching alien conspiracy.

David also recently admitted that the new series will find his character in a “dark, dark place”, which has been hinted by his unkempt look in the first official picture released by the program makers and showed Mulder dressed down with a substantial layer of stubble.

While Gillian, hinted in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly that things had changed between them and ominously said: “I like where we find Mulder and Scully in their relationship.”

You can expect to see some old faces (including Mitch Pileggi as FBI boss Skinner and William B. Davis as the nefarious Cigarette Smoking Man), but don’t expect to see the same old monsters. “We’re not going to reboot any of the old favorites, although it was something we all thought about,” says Carter. “These are all brand new stories. We hope to scare you in brand new ways.

Everrett Shea books Arrow, Season 4!!

Arrow is an American television series developed by writer/producers Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, and Andrew Kreisberg. It is based on the DC Comics character Green Arrow, a costumed crime-fighter created by Mort Weisinger and George Papp.

When presumed-dead billionaire playboy Oliver Queen returns home to Starling City after five years stranded on a remote island in the Pacific, he hides the ways the experience has changed him. As he reconnects with those closest to him, including his sister, Thea, Oliver appears to be the same wealthy, carefree bachelor they’ve always known. At night, flanked by his devoted friend, Diggle, Oliver uses his secret persona — that of a vigilante — to right societal wrongs and transform the city to its former glory.

Big changes are coming for Arrow Season 4, especially for main protagonist Oliver Queen. When he’s fighting new bad guys and delving into strange phenomena later this year, he won’t be doing it as The Hood/Arrow. After three seasons, he is finally embracing his comic book roots and becoming Green Arrow.

Dora Bempong & Mehdi Darvish just finished shooting roles in the movie “Encounter” (fka “Finding Mr. Right 2 – The Love Letters“)

Producer: Shan Tam, Mathew Tang
Director: Xiaolu Xue

This film is a follow-up/sequel to ”Finding Mr. Right”, one of the top grossing romantic comedies of Chinese box office history.

Finding Mr. Right, a 2013 romantic comedy film, was written and directed by Xue Xiaolu. The film was a box-office hit, grossing nearly $85 million in China. The title translates literally to “Beijing Meets Seattle“.

City girl Jiajia is traveling to Seattle to give birth to the son who’s going to help her win over her rich married boyfriend. Armed with his unlimited credit card and the singular goal of bringing a little U.S. citizen back to Beijing, Jiajia knows how to play this game of modern love. But when Jiajia arrives in Seattle, the city which inspired her favorite movie Sleepless in Seattle, nothing goes right: she’s stuck sharing a small house with two other pregnant ladies, she has trouble reaching her boyfriend on the phone, and eventually, even the credit card stops working. To top that off, the only person willing to spend time with her is her driver Frank. Frank is the opposite of everything she ever wanted in a man… or could he be exactly the kind of guy she really needs?

Starring actress Tang Wei and actor Wu Xiubo,

Bernadeta Wrobel plays a Russian immigrant woman, opposite Dolph Ziggler and Kane in WWE movie, “6:42”.

These two WWE stars are teaming up for another action thriller from WWE Studios, presented by Lionsgate Films. It’s the motion picture debut of Ziggler, who recently signed a new contract with WWE, while Kane has filmed two See No Evil movies previously. The film also stars Katharine Isabelle, who was in See No Evil 2.

Ziggler plays Ray Fitzpatrick, who is a narcotics cop in Los Angeles that shoots his own partner, which leads to him getting suspended from the police force. The action picks up from there after a kidnapper threatens to set off a time bomb strapped to a child’s chest unless the cops can come up with $2 million.

Kane plays Lt. Cronin and assigns Fitzpatrick to be the bagman while making sure he kills the kidnapper without killing the boy. The reason why the movie is called “6:42” is because there’s 6 minutes and 42 seconds to save the child before it’s too late.
