Looking at at your work on The X-Files, it ran for a very long time, are there still things that you would like to see Mulder do? Is that maybe why you're interested in doing another X-Files movie?
David Duchovny: Well, I had always kind of wanted to segue the television show into a movie franchise. I never really wanted the show to die or to quit it. I got tired of the grind of making a network television show but I never tired of the character or the possibilities of the show. I would love it if we were able to expand it into a movie franchise because I love playing the character and I love the show.
Can you talk at all about The X-Files 2? Maybe where that's at or what people might expect from that?
David Duchovny: 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.
The X-Files: I Want to Believe was released July 25th, 2008 and stars David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Amanda Peet, Billy Connolly, Xzibit, Mitch Pileggi, Callum Keith Rennie, Adam Godley. The film is directed by Chris Carter.

brovi says: 'X-FILES' DAVID DUCHVONY AND THE NAZI BOYS
The 'X-Files' Group [Carter, Spotnitz and Duchvony] Why is it that whenever these duds open their mouths they reek of misinformation and deception much like a used-car-salesman? Within seconds you know they're full of corroded horse crap. (http://www.cbc.ca/mrl3/8752/bc/ondemand/video/bc-080312-xfiles-CLIP.wmv}
Moreover, they're like a really bad infommercial: always selling old Nazi Hollywood (especially X-Files) with such recycling self-glorifications. Not only that but they, without fail, always come across like a bunch of nerdy white collar perverts. Society has never -ever- heard anybody talk as much and say so little as these.
David Duchvony, Carter what's-his-name and the other what's-his-name Spotnitz are known for being a total 'Nazi Landing.' That's not all they're known for. This talentless group of hangers-on made millions off the skirt-tails of Gillian Anderson for a near decade.
Without Gillian Anderson these guys have been sucking the big one, ever since she cut herself loose in 2002. They've been stalking her ever since. This brotherhood abused her way before then however.
If you've ever been a female in the military, you can imagine the kind of harassment and hell she had to put up with (throughout her TV X-Files years) from this jealous bunch of 'Nazi sexist momma's boys.'
David Duchvony's massive ego was tormented when his popularity dropped like 'Californication' ratings (compared to Gillian Anderson's) once Gillian came to the TV series X-Files. With old Hollywood and their Fox studio's unabated blessing, Duchvony and the boys began setting up camp to control, dominate and undermine Gillian Anderson. However, she adamantly refused to cooperate like a good little girl. Go figure!
David Duchvony - Does Nothing
Gillian Anderson was forced to work 16 to 17 hour days scrapping around on the floor fighting with pretend alien dummies into her ninth month of pregnancy. The abuse didn't stop there. Moreover, do you think that David Duchvony and the Nazi boys spoke out concerning this atrocity against motherhood? Yea right.
Gillian Anderson was forced to continue these slave hours after her first newborn arrived. For a near decade she had to work these hours combined with five and a half workweeks for nine months straight out of the year. During the day the only time that Gillian Anderson even got to see her first child was for about 20 minutes between the Nazi boys changing the lighting on the set.
When Gillian tried to stop the abuse they held her to their mafia-like contract. When she fulfilled particulars of the contract that allowed her to option out of that Nazi deed she put in her resignation immediately. During her years struggling to be a working mother and fighting the contractual abuse, David Duchvony and the Nazi boys merely ran the sidelines.
David Duchvony's only public outcry during that time was not against the abuse of motherhood and women's rights on the set by his Nazi boys -and in old Hollywood. No. His only published complaint was, of course, for himself. Duchvony felt it was unfair that he had to do most of the physical and dirty work scenes. And, he wanted more pay. Where have all the good men gone?
Now David Duchvony and the Nazi boys were in dire straights. They pushed their evil Nazi ways too far. Their only source of income was about to walk out the door. But, that wasn't far enough away from these cows for Gillian Anderson. She left the country.
Not once has David Duchvony, nor the Nazi boys, spoke out or even mentioned Gillian Anderson's decade abuse or the abuse which followed Gillian's resignation. Why would they? They were/are the large part of it. Old Hollywood has attempted to make it impossible for Gillian Anderson to work in the industry. It reeks in Hollywood of 'either X-Files or nothing' for Gillian Anderson.
Was it Gillian Anderson's fault that David Duchvony and the Nazi boys, old Hollywood and their Fox studios lost millions upon millions in potential future project revenues when Gillian resigned at hugely high TV ratings? Why should Duchvony and the boys profit from Anderson after what they did and what they continue to do? Does Gillian Anderson owe them anything under the circ*mstances? Since when is Nazi abuse rewarded?
David Duchvony Wanted X-Files Forever
David Duchvony and The Nazi Boys never wanted the X-Files to end. EVER! They had found a million dollar baby (Gillian Anderson.) Their career life was sealed with TV gold, not to mention all the potential movie venues. Yet, one that they couldn't control and use to their own self-serving ends and unhindered abuse.
Regardless, in the six years -since 2002/03- of being blacklisted, slandered in the Nazi celebrity rags and being coerced, Gillian Anderson has refused to return to David Duchvony and the nazi boy's 'X-Files' dreamland. Duchvonly and old Hollywood have been threatening an 'X-Files 2' movie quick cash cow from Gillian Anderson for six long years.
"I got tired of fighting it." To date, that is the only statement Gillian Anderson has made regarding the question, 'what can you tell us about the X-Files 2 movie?'
Gillian Anderson's doc*mented abuse and fight while at Fox studios helped to push through a new law protecting working actor-mothers. Now do you see all the women in Hollywood having babies? The only noted thing that David Duchvony and The Nazi Boys have done is to push through (coerced) the movie sequel 'X-Files 2.'

Can't wait, I still delve into my boxsets sometimes even now...
I just hope that they remember the fact that Mulder and Scully got together and that they don't forget William...
It's all well and good doing a stand alone movie but I for one put years of loyal viewing in would be dissapointed if the story took a huge step backwards after that. Yes the earlier eps were the best but Mulder and Scully together; we barely got to see it before the end... I really hope all our loyal viewing is reflected in the movie...
Even so I can't wait, been hankering after a new X Files fix for years and I know I'm far from the only one!!

I definitely can't wait for a Chris Carter original. The X-Files may be long gone, but its draw is still there for countless fans. Bring on Scully and Mulder. We love it.

x files 2 - England's Queen Looks On -
ENGLAND'S QUEEN RULES - AND GILLIAN ANDERSON TRIES
US/UK Hollywood Iron-Curtain Blocks
The Queen of England
Gillian Anderson Tries - understanding that the female voice is imperative to society's survival;
The Queen of England has understanding, wisdom, kindness and truth with her. The next x-files 2
(x files 2) will be when 'The Queen of England' arises' ...crushing all media that blocks her voice ...while a humble servant ...one that submits to the point of humiliation for the voice of female (which is needed more than ever in these times) for the survival of society ...Gillian Anderson meets that criteria - will make things right again.
This is the next "x files 2". God bless the Queen of England and all that support her voice (NOT HOLLYWOOD US|UK IRON CURTAIN RAGS). GOD BLESSES THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND and Gillian Anderson who supports her.
best wishes, thanks for having me

The Kwisatz Haderach
It could be cool, been awhile since I even thought of the X-Files, but I really think David Duchovny Dr. 7-Up(Orlando Jones) and Stifler (Sean William Scott) should get back together for another Evolution, that was some funny sh*t, even if it was a Pert Plus commercial.
