When the X-Files Premiered on TV in 1993, the purpose of Gillian Anderson's role as FBI scientist Dana Scully was to provide a rational counterpoint to partner Fox Mulder's (David Duchovny) obsession with assorted creepy-crawlies. As the series became a huge hit, Anderson became a bona fide sex symbol. Lucky for us, she has five movies in the pipeline, including July's super-mysterious sequel to the first X-Files movie. Despite our prodding, she has sworn not to divulge any of the film's secrets. Fortunately, that doesn't mean she can't be revealing in other ways.----------------------------WH ...

The writer from EW wants to believe that he can get X-Files creator Chris Carter to spill the beans about The X-Files: I Want To Believe, which arrives in theatres on July 25. But Carter proves to be just as tight-lipped on plot details now as he will be a couple of hours later when he is grilled by fans at New York Comic Con. Carter — who directed the X-Files movie sequel — is, however, happy to chat about everything else X-Files-related, from the possibility of a third big-screen Mulder and Scully adventure to how leaking spoilers could have the real FBI knocking on your door.ENT ...

IT'S one of the most eagerly anticipated movies of the year ...but The X-Files co-stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson didn't seem that keen to get back together on screen. David admits they had hardly seen each other since the TV show ended six years ago and that he was "queasy" at the thought of returning to his most famous role. But once the 46-year-old was reunited with Gillian on the set of the new film, The X-Files: I Want To Believe, it was all sweetness and light. "It's almost like going back to a relationship you thought was over, so it's a little queasy at first," said Dav ... [Continua a leggere]

Chris Carter spent the '80s working as a writer and editor for Surfing magazine and developing TV shows for Disney before creating the TV series that made his name. Debuting in the fall of 1993 on Fox, The X-Files became one of the defining television series of the '90s. Starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, two FBI agents charged with investigating strange cases, The X-Files mixed hard science and fringe beliefs into stories that were alternately comedic, terrifying, and philosophical. Playing Scully's skepticism against Mulder's credulity, it used pre-mi ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny is not an easy interview. That's not to say he's a difficult or quiet actor in a Tommy Lee Jones kind of way. But he is one of the smartest people I've ever interviewed. Never flaunting his intelligence, you could just tell listening to his responses. And as a journalist, that keeps you on your toes. I expected him to be more uncomfortable talking about his return to THE X-FILES after all these years but he was very zen about his return and the difficulties he had during the last years of the series. As far as secrets? Well you'll have to read on... Does it feel like old ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny is sitting on the porch of a farmhouse about an hour north of Vancouver, squinting into the wintry afternoon sun. It's late in the process of shooting The X-Files: I Want to Believe, and he's pondering the choice Agent Mulder had to make in the series finale: perfect happiness or the truth? ''I don't think of Mulder as a happy guy,'' Duchovny says. ''He's like a quest hero. That's why I like him so much. He just doesn't give up.'' Costar Gillian Anderson passes by on her way to the set. ''It's all lies!'' she yells out with a grin.Hey, it might be — after all, ''deceive, i ... [Continua a leggere]

I'd just spent a few hours listening Gillian Anderson film a scene on THE X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE. Sadly all I could hear were loud footsteps and a slammed door (which Anderson would later say was just an accident). I thought for sure I could get her to spill the beans. While slightly more forthcoming than her counterparts, Anderson stopped short of telling me exactly what she was doing back there. (Lucky for you, I later was able to sneak a peek at that very scene - more on that to come at a later day...) Anderson looked as beautiful as ever, years after she was one of the most a ...

So what if it's been a decade since "The X-Files: Fight the Future" graced the silver screen and six years since the hit paranormal investigation series went off the air? All that time, X-Philes have been fidgeting with excitement over the day when they'd finally see iconic FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) back in action. Now, the truth is out there. The wait is almost over. "The X-Files: I Want to Believe" is scheduled to land on July 25, and it's destined to make a believer out of you. Fresh off the movie's four-month shoot in and around Vancouver, Du ... [Continua a leggere]

X-Files creator Chris Carter's pretty tight-lipped when it comes to revealing details about the upcoming second feature film based on his late beloved series, even refusing to comment much on the details we recently reported on. But Carter and the film's co-writer (and regular series scripter) Frank Spotnitz did hint at the tone and themes that their highly anticipated X-Files: I Want to Believe, due out in July, would contain--when they sat down to chat with us on Friday, Day 1 of the 2008 New York Comic Con... When you look at everything that's going on at this convention--sci-fi, fantasy, h ... [Continua a leggere]

During Friday night's The-X Files: I Want to Believe panel at NYC Comic Con with the film's executive producer and co-writer Frank Spotnitz and director-executive producer Chris Carter, Spotnitz let a big cat out of the bag. He said that DC and Wildstorm Comics would be announcing a brand new X Files comic book series tomorrow during one of the many panels. The moderator said jokingly, "I think you just announced it," to which Carter added, "Don't tell anyone." Cut to — a million X-Files fans texting and emailing the scoop simultaneously. The X-Filesmania that was so rampant in the '90s ... [Continua a leggere]

It just kind of slipped out. While series creator Chris Carter was answering a question last night about other incarnations the franchise might take, he "spoiled" an official announcement (supposedly due today) that DC/Wildstorm is launching a new title in conjunction with the release of I Want to Believe. What else did Carter and collaborator Frank Spotnitz say about the new film and the future of The X-Files in general? Well, keep reading for some of the best nuggets and one-liners the duo delivered to their chomping-at-the-bit fans.By the way, that last part is no exaggeration. The way that ...

Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz participated in an audience Q&A session for X-Files: I Want To Believe at the New York Comic Con on Friday night. As has been the case throughout the promotion for the upcoming X-Files film sequel, which sees the return of as FBI Agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), major plot details were kept under wraps. Also, no new footage was shown (only the previously released theatrical trailer). But Carter (producer, director, co-writer, and series creator) and Spotnitz (co-writer, producer) did offer up a few tidbits. Here are som ... [Continua a leggere]

It was called "The Untitled X-Files Sequel." Then it was simply "The X-Files 2." And finally just a few days ago, the heavily-anticipated return of one of sci-fi's biggest franchises received its final title..."The X-Files: I Want To Believe," taken from the now-famous motto emblazoned across the famous poster in Agent Fox Mulder's office. But anyone thinking the name doesn't have a deeper meaning is as misguided as the Cigarette Smoking Man. "The title makes sense because [the poster] was really emblematic of Mulder's faith, and the struggle for his faith," stated series creato ... [Continua a leggere]

On April 17, 2008, writer-director Chris Carter and producer Frank Spotnitz appeared at the New York Comic Con to divulge a few details about the upcoming sequel X-Files: I Want to Believe. "It takes place in the present day so it's six years after the series ended," Spotnitz said in front of a packed crowd at Comic Con's IGN Theatre. "It's not an alien mythology story. It's a standalone, scary story focusing very much on Mulder and Scully – on who they are, where they are in their lives, and I'd say it's personal in a way that the series rarely could be because we were doing episodes of ...
