Some more beans have been spilled about Lucy Lawless' new character on "The X-Files," which is expected to premiere Nov. 4 if there are no baseball playoffs that evening.

"My character, Shannon McMahon, re-eneters [Agent John] Doggett's life," Lawless recently told Ian Spelling of Robert Patrick's character. "They used to be in the military together -- in my backstory, they fought in Beirut -- and now she's causing a great deal of trouble. You don't know if she's good, and you don't know if she's bad. She seems to be both things at once."

Lawless also revealed that there will be a scene where she will be missing some clothes.

"I spent half my time naked," she said. "Why not, if it looks good oscreen? Of course, you don't see anything, except my well-endowed body double. Let's just say the character's a bit of a water baby, a water babe. She's a nymph."
