A resurfaced clip of Gillian Anderson and her X-Files costar David Duchovny on Jimmy Kimmel Live in 2016 has been taking the internet by storm as viewers rediscover the undeniable chemistry between Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.

People on social media lost their minds over the fact that Anderson is a Chicago-born American.
We do, however, see where some of the confusion lies.
