David Duchovny Wants to Do a Third X-Files Movie

I would love to do another film, or more. - David Duchovny

Collider recently interviewed actor David Duchovny and got the scoop on the rumored 3rd X-Files movie.

"That book doesn't close until somebody dies, really. One of the greatnesses of the show was its open-endedness. It was about possibility. It wasn't about closure. It just couldn't be. There is no such thing as that story ever ending. Those characters are forever searching. That's what they do. Even if we're not watching them, they're out there, in some dimension. Mulder and Scully are still doing their thing 'cause that's their nature.

I would love to do another film, or more. I think we're all game for it. I know I'm kind of perplexed that Fox isn't more [enthusiastic]. Here's a homegrown property that you don't have to go buy, like fuckin' Green Lantern or something, to make it. Here you've got an actual action franchise that's your own. It's weird to me, but I'm not an executive. I don't know if they made the Green Lantern either, but I'm just using that as an example of, "Why make that film? Why not make a homegrown franchise that is excellent, and that has proven to be excellent and interesting?" I don't get it, but that's not my business.

I think Chris Carter is probably working on an idea, so we'll see. Unfortunately, with the last one, they didn't spend the money to compete in a summer fashion, and they brought it out in the summer. It should be a summer film. It should be an action film. But, the last one we made was not. The last one we made was a dark, contemplative, small $25 million film. It was basically an independent film. When you come out against Batman, it's not going to happen. You're not going to be sold as an independent film, and you're not going to compete against Batman with $25 million. "

The actor will be seen next in Christopher Neil's indie comedy Goats. As for those rumors about Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) dating in real-life? Well, only time will tell if those pan out to be true.

The X-Files 3 is in development and stars David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson.

David Speaks Out About XF3

080912-DavidCollider-TDCollider took an opportunity to talk about a possible third X-Files feature film with David Duchovny today, who was making the rounds promoting his new film Goats. What David had to say won't surprise you, but perhaps how much he had to say might.

"I know I’m kind of perplexed that Fox isn’t more [enthusiastic]. Here’s a homegrown property that you don’t have to go buy, like fuckin’ Green Lantern or something, to make it. Here you’ve got an actual action franchise that’s your own. It’s weird to me, but I’m not an executive.

A "Californication" Concert

As reported earlier, Californication needed some help from fans in filming the sixth season finale last night. Well the fans were happy to help, and in return, they all had a fantastic time. The concert featured Tim Minchin, Marilyn Manson, Steve Jones, and of course, David Duchovny as Hank Moody. 

The rest of the cast was in attendance, too, with Evan Handler getting a particularly warm reception. Everyone seemed to have a great time, and it was certainly a special experience for fans of Californication.

Below is a video of David/Hank rocking out on guitar. You can also find more photos here. Though if you want to be completely spoiler free for the coming season, you may want to wait.

Don't worry though, it's only a few months. We won't pull a Chris Carter on you and make you wait seven years...
