New X-Files Movie Sequel





Variety.com
10/31


For X-File fanatics, July 25 can't come soon enough.

The long awaited sequel to 1998's blockbuster will reteam David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Still untitled film is being kept closely guarded but promises to take Mulder and Scully's relationship in a new direction. Story aims to be a stand-alone feature. Series creator Chris Carter will direct from the script he co-wrote.

Carter begins lensing in December in Vancouver from a script he co-wrote with Frank Spotnitz, a veteran scribe of the long-running "X-Files" television series, which became a worldwide hit during its 1993-2002 run on the Fox network. Spotnitz also co-wrote with Carter the screenplay for 1998 feature "X-Files." Carter and Spotnitz will also serve as producers.

Plan to bring the "X-Files" sequel to the bigscreen was waylaid when Chris Carter brought a 2005 lawsuit against Fox over how the "X-Files" syndication profits were divvied up. Suit was later settled.

Earlier this year, the issue seemed to have been resolved, with Duchovny and Anderson both indicating that the film was finally moving forward.

Released in 1998, feature film "The X-Files" grossed $187 million worldwide, including a domestic haul of $83.9 million and an international cume of more than $103 million.
