It looks like David Duchovny wasn’t fooling around about that X-Files sequel — not only is it really, truly filming soon, but 20th Century Fox has given it an official release date.
According to Variety, Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and X-Files creator Chris Carter are all on board for the next installment, which is set to start filming in Vancouver next month. Carter will direct from a script he co-wrote with series veteran Frank Spotnitz. From the article:
Studio is keeping the film’s logline under wraps, but stressed the pic is a stand-alone story and supernatural thriller that takes the complicated relationship between Mulder and Scully in new directions.
Fans won’t have to wait much longer to see it, either — 20th Century Fox has chosen July 25, 2008 for a release date. Mark your calendars!
