X-Files 2

March 21st 2008 12:36

The X-Files sequel which has the working title "Done One" is the second feature film based on the TV series The X-Files, following the 1998 film of the same name. The sequel is directed by the TV series creator Chris Carter and written by Carter and Frank Spotnitz. The film was first anticipated in November 2001 to follow the conclusion of the ninth season of the TV series, but it remained in development hell for six years before entering production in December 2007 in Vancouver. The stars of the TV series, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, return to reprise their roles as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. The premise of the film is not yet publicly known, but many of those involved, including Carter, Duchovny, and 20th Century Fox, have spoken of the film as one that would stand alone and be apart from the mythology of the TV series. The film is slated for a July 25, 2008 release in the USA. The Australian release date is July 24th.

Due to the highly secretive nature of the project, very little is known about the movie's plot. It is known that, unlike the first film, the plot will not focus on the series' ongoing "mythology" and will instead be a standalone thriller/horror story, similar to many of the "monster-of-the-week" episodes that were frequently seen in the TV series.

This is the only trailer available for the second X-Files movie. Leaked onto the internet:

Cast:
David Duchovny as Fox Mulder
Gillian Anderson as Dana Scully
Amanda Peet as FBI Special Agent Dakota Whitney
Xzibit as an as-yet-unnamed FBI Agent
Billy Connolly
Callum Keith Rennie
Adam Godley

Genre: Drama / Mystery / Sci-Fi
Directed by: Chris Carter
Produced by: Chris Carter, Frank Spotnitz
Written by: Frank Spotnitz, Chris Carter
Distributed by: 20th Century Fox
Release date: USA - July 25th, 2008; Australia - July 24th, 2008; UK - August 1st, 2008
