'The X-Files' Star David Duchovny Still Hopes To Bring Back Fox Mulder

Posted 4/12/10 1:07 pm EST by in News


"The X-Files: I Want To Believe" hit theaters in 2008, the latest attempt to bring back Chris Carter's classic science fiction TV series. It wasn't a box office smash, but Carter -- who has previously indicated that he'd do a third movie if the second did well enough to warrant it -- later confirmed that "I Want To Believe" performed well enough to "theoretically" allow for a sequel.

MTV's Larry Carroll spoke with David Duchovny -- aka Fox Mulder -- last week at the press junket for this week's "The Joneses," which he stars in. The actor didn't have much to say about "X-Files 3," but he'd "love" to come back for more. He also made some interesting comments about how it feels knowing "The X-Files" inspired some to go into law enforcement. Hear Duchovny talk about the classic series in the video below then check out the full report on MTV.com.

David Duchovny Wants To Believe That A Third 'X-Files' Movie Could Happen

Posted 10/20/09 5:00 pm EST by in Commentary, News


Following the widely-perceived failure of "X-Files: I Want To Believe," does anybody really want or need to see a third installment in the "X-Files" movie franchise? Anybody? Anybody? Bueller?

Apparently, David Duchovny — none other than Fox Mulder himself, kids — is up for it.

In an interview with The Daily Beast, the "Californication" star spoke about his hopes for a third "X-Files" film. Duchovny believes that "X-Files 3" could be perfectly appropriate for a 2012 release, thanks to the year's supposedly catastrophic nature according to Nostradamus and Roland Emmerich's (via the Mayan civilization) prophecies.

Tea Leoni Admits Past Year 'Has Been Hard,' Prepares To Debut New Film

Posted 1/20/09 9:32 pm EST by in Sundance09, Video


My admiration for the comic timing of the great Tea Leoni dates back to "Flirting with Disaster" so it pleases me to learn her new film debuting tonight at Sundance is a comedy and calls for her to talk fast and funny alongside the likes of Billy Bob Thorton. That it comes from the great Polish brothers and is called "Manure" is just icing on the cake.

When I chatted with Tea this morning I brought up her reported split with husband David Duchovny as gently as possible and she admitted the year has been hard. But she's also talking like a woman whose marriage isn't quite over (or am I reading too much into it)? Does this in fact add fuel to the speculation last week after Duchovny's Globes speech perhaps?

Check out all of our celebrity interviews from Sundance, including Kristen Stewart, Jim Carrey, Mike Tyson and many more.

David Duchovny's Sex Addiction: The Signs Were There

Posted 8/29/08 1:26 pm EST by in Hot Stuff, News


It's really no surprise that David Duchovny is in rehab for sex addiction, as People reported Thursday. Just look at his filmography: The clues are everywhere, including in the titles. His most recent projects include the second "X-Files" movie ("X" as in "X-rated") and Showtime's "Californication" ('nuff said), but even in years past his TV and film work often hinted that something just wasn't right with the guy.

Way back in 1990, when no one outside the English departments at Princeton and Yale knew who he was, Duchovny starred in a movie called "Julia Has Two Lovers." He played a creepy dude who called women he selected randomly from the phone book and pleasured himself during the conversations. On a related note, in the "X-Files" TV series, Fox Mulder had very little actual sex, but it is widely known that the character had a major porn addiction. In at least one episode he gets turned on watching a tape of a Bigfoot sighting.
