The X-Files’ cast just got larger with the addition of rapper Xzibit, Amanda Peet and Billy Connolly. Due to the secrecy of the project, Fox has not made a formal announcement about the casting. Xzibit and Peet are rumored to be taking on roles of FBI agents working with David Duchovny's Mulder and Gillian Anderson's Scully. The upcoming Chris Carter movie is said to be a supernatural thriller that is not a sequel or continuation of the 1998 big screen film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
