X-Files fans rejoice! It looks like the much rumored X-Files sequel is quickly becoming a reality. Movieweb got the first exclusive of the news when they had interviewed David Duchovny for the DVD release of the television series.
When asked about the X-Files 2 movie, this is what David told MovieWeb:
It’s at… the script is written and as far as I know we’re all trying to shoot in December at some point. We would all love it if we could keep it a secret and just give everybody a fresh experience of not knowing what the movie’s about. I know if I was a fan of the show I would kind of be excited to be surprised.
This is awesome news! Especially if the film does start production in December, because then it would beat the upcoming strike in June 2008. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are terrific actors who have both continued to show off their acting skills in very different films and television shows, (*Check Gillian Anderson in the new revenge flick “Closure” on DVD…AWESOME!) but we all know when we seem them onscreen, we only see Mulder and Scully.
Although, I do agree with Mr. Duchovny when he says the plot should be secret. Take for example the upcoming Sex and The City movie. I probably know all the important plot points by now, and have probably ruined any sort of surprise factor I would have had if I didn’t read so much in entertainment news.
Hopefully you guys feel the same way? So what are your thoughts? Are you ready to see Mulder and Scully hit the big screen again?
