Di un possibile seguito del film di X-Files si parlava da tempo, tra conferme, smentite, e rumors assortiti.La serie tv che ha fatto epoca, per la ri-proposta televisiva di temi fantascientifici (rapimenti alieni, cospirazioni) quanto horror (numerosi gli episodi ad alto livello di spavento e gore), pareva però arrivata ormai a un punto morto (e poco importa se la continuity avesse lasciato un gran numero di situazioni insolute e misteri da rivelare). Nove stagioni di grandissimo successo, e un film già in soffitta (del 1998, diretto da Rob Bowman), erano un bel bottino per i cre ... [Continua a leggere]

"We are in negotiations right now," Carter told the magazine. "And because it's a sequel, there are peculiar and specific kinds of negotiations that are holding us up.

Can you spill any details about the finale?You know, I had trouble understanding most of it, so I’m not sure how much I can help. It’s a return to what [series creator] Chris Carter calls “the mythology”: certain people in the government—most of whom have Canadian accents, for some reason—are making deals with the aliens to save their own skin.A lot of fans stopped watching the show after you left and that new guy came.I don’t think anybody but my mom stopped watching. Actually not even her. My mom would call me and say, “That Robe ... [Continua a leggere]

We all know Jennifer Beals from Flashdance — she with the off-the-shoulder sweatshirt. Now starring in Jennifer Jason Leigh and Alan Cumming's new film The Anniversary Party, the Yale graduate told me a little secret over lunch on Wednesday.

I still don't get it. With all due respect for the fans, I couldn't imagine doing it every day. I mean, I think their acting is very good, but I couldn't ... [Continua a leggere]

David Duchovny is standing outside his trailer on the Los Angeles set of "The X-Files," waiting for his co-star, Gillian Anderson. "She's on the phone with Mike Wallace," he says with a half smile. "She's getting interview tips." He's kidding. Anderson hasn't contacted the 60 Minutes bulldog.

She was "thrilled" when USA WEEKEND asked her to interview Duchovny and was flattered to learn he'd suggested her for the job. Sitting "Indian-style" beside Duchovny on a couch in his trailer, Anders ... [Continua a leggere]
