FOX: *random advertising junk* For 9 years, The X-Files had us glued to our seats every week. The weird stories, the wild and paranormal phenomenon, and of course, Agents Mulder and Scully. And now, six years after we said goodbye to the show, it's back, as a movie. The X-Files: I Want to Believe, opens this Friday. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are back. Though David admits that with the story picking up several years after the show ended, it was a little difficult to figure out who Mulder had become. DD: In some way it's trickier than creating something new, because you have something ... [Continua a leggere]

How did you guys figure out in a way to sorta interact with one another?GA: The good thing is there is such a thing as a script, and so no matter what they said it came down to the script.

JoBlo: Now first of all both you have gone on and done some very impressive projects. You with "Californication", "Bleak House" was brilliant. By the way I just got to say that right now.GA: Thank You.JoBlo: How was it coming back to these characters? Relating it like you did?GA: It was something I was looking forward to in a big way. I always liked Scully. My desire at the end of the series to move away from her was pure natural human exhaustion and desire to stretch my wing and do different things. But I always appreciated her, respected her, and enjoyed playing her. So it's... coming back w ... [Continua a leggere]
"The X-Files: I Want to Believe" arrives billed as a "stand-alone" film that requires no familiarity with the famous television series. So it is, leaving us to piece together the plot on our own. And when I say "piece together," trust me, that's exactly what I mean. In an early scene, a human arm turns up, missing its body, and other spare parts are later discovered. The arm is found in a virtuoso scene showing dozens of FBI agents lined up and marching across a field of frozen snow. They are led by a white-haired, entranced old man who suddenly drops to his knees and cries out that this is t ... [Continua a leggere]
Gillian Anderson always meant to play Dana Scully again - but until now life got in the way
Gillian Anderson is something of an enigma, which is perhaps fitting given that she spent nine uninterrupted years playing the paranormal investigator Dana Scully in the TV phenomenon that was The X Files. On the one hand, there is her onscreen guise, defined, whether the actress likes it or not, by Scully’s glacial poise and biting scepticism, while on the other there is her fiery public persona, characterised by a turbulent personal life, which includes two marriages and two divorces, the last in early 2006, when she split from the documentary maker Julian Ozanne after just 16 ...

ET was on the scene with the movie couple at their big Hollywood premiere, where the expecting mother shared her thoughts on co-star Duchovny playing the role of babysitter. Gillian's response? "That's really funny, I think he would be nervous about it, it would force him into being really protective." Picking up six years after the end of the ... [Continua a leggere]

Fox Mulder was brilliant and sexy in "The X-Files" -- but it's Dana Scully who has my heart.
In this summer of Dark Knights and Hellboys and Iron Men, it's refreshing to be reminded -- as we will be this weekend, with the opening of "The-X-Files: I Want to Believe" -- that not so long ago, there was a science fiction series with a woman at its core, a heroine whose major goals were more about disproving the existence of extraterrestrial life than marrying Big, a chick who spent more time chasing fluke worms down toilets than trying on shoes. I was crazy about "The X-Files," Fox's pre-9/11 ode to trusting no one. I taped every episode. I watched many of them repeatedly. I borrowed fri ... [Continua a leggere]
The X-Files is known for its complicated, labrynthine mythology and plot twists, which is good, because fans might need those analytical skills to sort out where we left Mulder and Scully. The newest installment in the franchise comes 10 years after the first movie and six years after the end of the series, and, understandably, a plot thread or two can get lost in the mix. Let Mulder and Scully themselves sort it out for you, and tie up at least one hinted-at, but never confirmed, loose series thread in this Filmazing exclusive. With the easy chemistry of these two though, be sure to ... [Continua a leggere]
