Anderson Ready To Say Bye
PLUS: Name of 'The X-Files' series finale
It's been nine years, and it's finally time to say good-bye to "The X-Files."
Gillian Anderson, who has played Special Agent Dana Scully from the beginning, said she's ready to say good-bye to her last decade of work.
"I think it's good for everybody, and I think that everybody has put in such a huge effort over the years in really trying to keep the quality of the show up and continue with its integrity as much as it can," Anderson recently told Sci-Fi Wire. "There's a time for everything to end, and I think this is the right time. I think everbody is excited about moving on to other things, but both things can co-exist. Once can be sad and in the process of mourning and at the same time be excited and hopeful for future and change."
Of course, that doesn't change her overall feelings about leaving the show as the end draws near.
"This is so surreal," she said. "I swear to God, it's only started to hit me over the past couple of days. And it feels like the nine years was so short, you know what I mean? While we were in the middle of it, I never thought it would ned, and now all of a sudden, it feels unfathomable. And that's all I have to say."
Dark Horizons reported that the series finale, which is scheduled to air as a two-hour finale May 19, has been named "The Truth."
