New X-Files Movie Close?

I never planned to be running with an X-Files theme but I saw this on SciFi Wire and I got a little giddy.

Former The X-Files star David Duchovny told IESB.net that the long-awaited second movie may come together as soon as this week.

Duchovny told the site that he was in final talks for the second X-Files film and should wrap them up this week. Plans are to start shooting in 2008 or sooner, the site reported.

Duchovny, who played FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder in the long-running Fox TV series, and his co-star, Gillian Anderson (FBI Agent Dana Scully), have previously said they would be willing to reprise their most famous roles for another big-screen adventure.

Duchovny spoke to IESB.net while promoting his next film, TV Set.


I'm hoping that there has been enough distance between the series and the last film to have this feel fresh and fun seeing as it is not supposed to be tied into the current mythology in any way. I guess we'll see what happens.
