Hot off The X-Files revival, Gillian Anderson has booked her TV follow-up role. The actress has booked a key role on Starz's upcoming Bryan Fuller/Neil Gaiman drama American Gods. Anderson will play Media, the mouthpiece for the New Gods, functioning as their public face and sales representative, by taking the form of various iconic celebrities. She lives off the attention and worship that people give to screens-to their laptops, their TVs, to their iPhones in their hands while they watch their TVs. Ever the perky spokesperson, and always in control, she spins stories in whatever direction best suits her.
