Someone may need to get Scully and Mulder on the horn.

Russell Crowe has linked to a YouTube video on Twitter of what he claims to be an unidentified flying object outside his office in Sydney.

"UFO? Time Lapse Photos Outside RC's Woolloomooloo Office (THESE ARE REAL!)," he tweeted.

In the clip, a rectangular object engulfed in red light is seen making its way across the sky.

Calling it a "big surprise," Crowe explained that he and a friend had set up a camera "to capture fruit bats from Botanic Gardens."

The Oscar winner also noted, "Canon 5, No Flash, can't be a lens flare because it moves, camera is fixed."

Cue the creepy sci-fi music!
