I know! I have less doubt about Gillovny than I have about season 11. I’m not worried about Gillovny, it’s a done deal for me, and if I’m wrong or I’m proven wrong some time, I’ll just wait for them to get back to each other, because they always do anyway. But season 11… the wait is frustrating and not knowing if it’s going to happen or not makes me want to scream!
Okay, so this is google translated from this French interview, so please @justholdinghandsok if you could confirm its accuracy, but here are some news of The X-files Season 11 from Gillian Anderson, at the Berlinale.
David Duchovny, your partner of X-Files, expressed his enthusiasm for the idea of shooting a new season of the series. Where are you ?
We are in the midst of negotiation but this is progressing slowly. I do not know yet if this is really going to happen …
Sadly, this is totally accurate…
I’ve translated the whole thing, if you’re interested :
You said The Fall was the piece you were the most proud of. Why?
I think I’ve never played such a complex and enigmatic character. She’s tougher and smarter than I am. It’s fun to be able to slip in the suit of such a strong and invincible woman, because in real life, I’m a pussy!
Does Stella looks like Scully from The X-Files?
I’ve always tried, when I played a new role, to forget the previous ones. It’s very important for me to separate them, even if it’s still an investigator. Scully is a squarer character, who is even more different than who I am.
The series The Fall was very criticized by the press for its graphic violence...
They blamed the series for embellishing violence towards women. But it’s not like that. These violences happen! Showing them doesn’t mean supporting them. The destructive impact of Paul Spector on other’s lives show the atrocity of his actions. Never the series makes him a romantic.
Will the season 3 of The Fall be a closure?
We want to take a break and this season closes the chase of the killer. But it could be interesting to meet my character again in a few years, to see where she is…
Did you watch Fifty Shades of Grey with your partner in the show Jamie Dornan?
No, out of respect for him. I think he would have been embarrassed if we’d watched it together. But Jamie is adorable! And more relaxed since he has children!
Do you know about the french remake of The Fall?
What? Oh my god! Really? It’s fantastic! You’re not kidding me, right? I wouldn’t miss that for anything. It’s really exciting! You have my benediction at 200%!
David Duchovny, your partner in The X-Files told his enthusiasm about doing a new season of the series. What do you think?
We’re currently in negotiations, but it goes slowly. I don’t know if it’s really going to happen…
Thanks for the attempt to cheer me up, anon! I hope you’re right! I think I just wanted it to happen this year, and this idea is slowly fading away. But they can’t decently leave Mulder die on that bridge anyway!

Since last year, when Fox said they hoped to have something to tell us next May for the Upfronts, I’ve been saying we wouldn’t have anything before that, so I stick to it. I think we will have a real answer in May, a real yes or a real no. They can’t decently leave the Upfronts without answering this question.
Jamie: I have to ask David Duchovny: Yeah. Jamie: There is the rumours. David: Yeah. Jamie: Are we gonna get another reboot of The X-files? David: If I was a betting person, I’d say yes. But I lost bets before. But if I was a better, I’d say yes. Jamie:Okay, well we don’t wanna lose that one. Make it happen. Get on that, David! David: I don’t wanna lose it either.
Q:Give your girl, Gillian a call! Get her on that.
CC probably knows how chatty Anne Simon is. If something is happening, they can’t talk about. If nothing is happening, they can’t talk about either. So yeah… Anne Simon doesn’t know anything. Like always.
David Duchovny recently discussed the future of The X-Files with Unorthodox. Alternative Nation transcribed his comments. Duchovny was asked if he felt like we were living in an episode of The X-Files with the state of the world with the new U.S. administration, and his answer hinted at what might influence the next season of The X-Files.
“Well in a sense, I feel like, and we are talking about maybe doing some more [X-Files], and I’m kind of excited. As much as I’m horrified by the state of affairs in this country, I am excited as an artist to tackle these kinds of issues through the frame of The X-Files in this day and age. I mean the idea that I’m going to shoot a scene in Skinner’s office with a picture of Donald Trump in the background, I can’t tell you how nauseous that makes me feel. But I also think we have some good work to do around this age.”
The X-Files aired a six-episode miniseries in 2016 after 14 years off the air. The X-Files was one of the 90’s most iconic television series, originally airing on FOX from 1993 to 2002. Duchovny also discussed X-Files memes, and how iconic the Fox Mulder character has become.
“It’s like it has nothing to do with me, it’s a character I played, or continue to play. It’s a job that I did a long time ago, or will do again in the future. What happens, like any work of art that one does, be it a novel or a movie or a TV show or a character, once you put it out there, it is no longer under your control, especially in the internet world we live in where everyone gets transformed into memes and GIF’s.”
He also compared playing Mulder to Hank Moody on Californication, “I embraced the [Hank Moody] character because he was really one of those truth telling characters, I guess like Mulder in a way. If Mulder speaks truth to power, Hank just speaks truth all the time. I enjoyed the comedy, turning the soul of that character full circle.”
92.7 WOBM’s Justin Louis talks to David Duchovny about his friendship with Garry Shandling, the upcoming Twin Peaks revival, and teases the future of the X-Files. Plus details on his upcoming show at Asbury Park’s Stone Pony with his debut album “Hell or Highwater”.
I think we will get a confirmation, one day, but to be honest, I don’t believe it can happen when they’re so much on the spot. Coming out during the promotion of xf is the last thing to do, for them and their image. People will be confused, they’ll be accused to do a showmance, and they’ll have all the press on their heels. If they come out one day, I believe it’ll be more lowkey than that, when no one is really paying attention to them. But as season 11 will probably be the last one, we can have hope for the next few years. At least, there’s that.
