Talking with David Duchovny About Californication and Family Values

Actor, writer and director David Duchovny became a household name playing Agent Mulder on the hit cult series, “The X-Files.” Now he’s achieved the rare act of starring in a second hit series– this time on Showtime. He stopped by the SiriusXM studios last week to talk about the new season of his hit show, “Californication.” What follows are some excerpts from that interview.

Ron Bennington: David Duchovny in studio with us and this is the fifth season now. David Duchovny: Yea, it’s crazy. Because we only shoot for three months it even seems like less time. When we shot The X Files it was like ten months so it seemed like five years. Ron Bennington: So three months, and you’re done so its kind of like doing a movie for you. But the cool thing is, after the first season of Californication, I was like, that’s great but we’ll never be able to do another one. But every year is like a separate movie. David Duchovny: Every year there’s ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny lives a new, calmer life after trying times

LOS ANGELES — David Duchovny says he's a changed man. "I'm filled with humility and gratitude," says the actor, who shot to fame on The X Files before being treated for sex addiction in 2008. "Before, I was focused on winning and deserving. I would say, 'Oh, I deserve that.' That's not grateful. Grateful is, 'Wow. I'm lucky. That's fantastic.'

In 'The Joneses,' David Duchovny plays Steve, a father and a husband living the good life in the suburbs. Everything in his life is perfect ... except for the fact that it's all a lie. Steve is part of a made-up family, given every possible luxury product, and sent in to become role models for the rest of the town. The goal?

We spoke to Duchovny at the press day for 'The Joneses,' where he talked about the fil ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny Would 'Love' To Make A Third 'X-Files' Film

'I am so proud of that franchise,' he tells MTV News.

BEVERLY HILLS — In his new movie "The Joneses," David Duchovny plays a salesman given a cushy (if somewhat unethical) job: He and his phony "family" move into a posh neighborhood and make everyone jealous of their toys, causing them to buy products that line the pockets of his employers. Several scenes talk about the so-called "ripple effect," something with which Duchovny is intimately familiar. Nearly a decade after the show that made him famous went off the air, Duchovny's work on "The X-Files" is still sending ripples all over the world. And with that in mind, the veteran act ...

David Duchovny's XXX Files

The Californication star on sex addiction, Nietzsche and secondary infections.

Q: This spring you're starring in a movie called The Joneses, in which you play the "father" of a cool but fake family that a corporation assembles to coax their neighbors into buying stuff. I suppose a lot of celebrities do the same thing. A: Yeah, sure. I haven't sold that much. But the culture that's embracing Twilight and Paranormal Activity and District 9 and 2012—you could kind of say that The X-Files sold that. Q: You helped release a media virus. A: Exactly. And now it's reinfected people. I guess it went dormant for a while. Q: You passed through a period of genuine pop-cu ... [Continua a leggere]
