'X-Files' fans will be happy to know that the limited series is currently in production in Vancouver with both stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson back in their respective roles as paranormal detectives.

In a recent interview with TV Line, Anderson speaks on what its like to be back on set and in her role:

"[It's] strange to be back here. This is a lot of flashbacks, a lot of deja vu, a lot of remembering dynamics - and it's... a thicker substance to wade through than I'd thought... It feels like it's been a long time since I've played her. I can't remember what year the movie was, but it felt like [Scully] was further away from me than I'd thought she would be. But I've also worked really hard at putting her entirely to sleep, so that was successful; she's just taken longer to wake up."

The actress goes on to admit that she's only read the scripts for the first two episodes as the third is still sitting in her inbox. She goes on to describe the season premiere of the limited series in a couple interesting words.

"'Slow.' 'Intense.' And it's setting groundwork, so it's got a particular role to play. It does exactly what it needs to do. What's a single word for fulfilling that requirement? 'Functional'? 'Appropriate'? 'Functional' works," she says. "Slow, intense and functional!"

Fans of the original series will recognize the show following the same pace and how it was crucial that it did so to build the appropriate suspense.

Anderson also offered some details on the changes to her character Scully if any.

"She's older! She aged!" since we last saw her. Beyond that, though, it's "tricky" to pinpoint how the iconic woman of science has evolved. "Anything I say is going to sound like something you're not going to want to watch. But that's not the case," the actress explains. "It's just... I don't even know. That's a hard one. I appreciate the question, but I can't answer it."

'The X-Files' returns to Fox on Sunday, January 24, 2016.
