I couldn’t decently make the kind of timeline I made last year, with sightings and rumors, but even if we felt like Gillovny wasn’t very active this semester, there’s still quite a few things that shows the unconditional love between David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson…
–
Gillovny timeline 2016 part 1 – part 2
January 10th: David is at the New Orleans Wizard World with Mitch Pileggi.
– It took him 8 minutes to talk about Gillian when no one asked him to (video) : Question: “Mitch what’s the favorite scene that you did with David and David what’s the favorite scene you did with Mitch?” David: “That would have been a great question if it was: Mitch what’s your favorite scene to do with David, David what’s your favorite scene to do with Gillian. That would have made me laugh. I thought it was coming. It didn’t come.”
– He talked about Gillian being a horrible a driver and told the now famous neck-brace prank (video): David: “Gillian’s a terrible driver. She had car accidents with nothing. Like the world was empty. There was nothing on the street. I was so relaxed. And she hit something. Hard. Backing up into it. So we had a little whiplash. She hit the nothing that was there. Hard.” Mitch: “Gillian is a horrible driver.” David: “But she thinks, she is good. That’s the hard part. So please don’t tell her.”
– Gillian answered a week later with a tweet (source) : “Excellent driver on both land and sea.”
January 22nd: David was obviously scrolling though Gillian’s tag on Twitter and liked this tweet.
February 8th: David was on a podcast. The interviewer said “Give your girl, Gillian a call! Get her on that.” He answered “Okay.”
February 9th: During a podcast, David was asked about Gillian in the Fall and he said she was “very very very good. Very great” (podcast – starts at 26:50 min)
February 13th: During a Facebook Live, the interviewed ask David is they can call “Scully”. He answered “yeah, when we’re not rolling!” (source)
February 14th:
– Variety shipped them for Valentine’s Day. (source)
– Tv Guide shipped them too. (source)
– During an interview for his music tour, David remembered Gillian being on stage with him at The Cutting Room. (source) : That was my first performance in New York. That was really the album release performance. I remember being nervous at that, and I think we had just said we were going to do more X Files, and we were going to do the Television Critics Association Awards. Gillian was in town to do that the next day. I just thought it would be fun if she came up and sang a song. She didn’t know any of my songs, but we were going to do a cover of “Helpless” by Neil Young. I got her on the phone and she rehearsed over the phone with the band to get the key she could sing it at. That was that.
April 10th: After the official announcement of The X-Files season 11, Gillian tweeted (source): “You ready for more of this @davidduchovny? #TheXFiles.” David answered (source): “Oh yes, Been ready since ‘93″
April 22nd: Gillian follows David on Instagram.
May 11th: I cannot not mention Orlando Jones and this fuckery: (source) “It’s going to happen. They don’t understand what’s going on. David just finished touring, he and Tea are no longer together — which is horrible, I love Tea. They have beautiful kids. But Gillian’s beautiful, she’s sort of amazing — I don’t really understand what the problem is. Here’s the thing, I get that they want to take a slow roll, they want to walk in the sand for a little while, they don’t want to commit too soon. But in 20 years they’re going to be on Golden Pond together if I have to break both their fucking legs and put them there.”
May 15th: The Upfronts & The Webby Awards
– David and Gillian appeared at The Fox Upfronts with matching injuries. Only two pictures were released (1st pic – 2nd pic), and a few interviews ( David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson Explain Their Matching Injuries Talk XFiles – David Duchovny Gillian Anderson on X Files Revival)
– Gillian was awarded for her role in The Fall, and David surprised her (or not), with a funny and memorable speech to give her the award. (video). They left the stage together and shared a cute moment (video)
May 16th: Gillian did a panel conversation for Buzfeed. She said “after seeing the playback from last night’s Webby Awards, David and I walking together, me in crutches and him in sling: That makes me think that may be an old idea. Maybe we should just fucking retire.”
May 17th: Gillian commented on the Webby Awards in an interview (source): “It was hilarious. The whole thing was hilarious,” said Anderson of Duchovny’s presentation. “The fact that we’re both crippled right now is so f—ing funny. And we’re about to start five and a half months of filming, so we’re going to have to heal really quickly. It was just hilarious between that clip and his speech and us both being invalids, it made my year so far.”
She also tweeted the Alien Baby Baby Mama fan art. (source)
May 18th: Gillian thanked David for The Webby Awards on Twitter (source): I would like to thank… @davidduchovny. Thanks @TheWebbyAwards!
June 1st: David finally started to follow Gillian on Instagram.
June 12th: David was asked how his relationship with Gillian has changed. He said: “It is deeper because of all those years that have passed. The respect and trust we feel towards each other are obvious! I think we are also both better actors today!” (source)
As usual, please tell me if I missed something! I’m sure the next semester will spoil us with loads of Gillovny!
