Will be interesting to see if this happens, I am hoping it will as would like to see more X-Files. I actually would like it if they did a series of TV movies instead of features, maybe a 2 or 3 a year. But thats just me :)

Fox sets date for 'X-Files' sequel
Scully, Mulder return to theaters on July 25

The long-awaited second "X-Files" film is finally a go, with 20th Century Fox setting a July 25, 2008 release date.

Untitled project reunites "X-Files" creator Chris Carter with thesps David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, who will reprise their signature roles as
FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.

Carter begins lensing in December in Vancouver from a script he co-wrote with Frank Spotnitz, a veteran scribe of the long-running "X-Files" television
series, which became a worldwide hit in its 1993-2002 run on the Fox network. Spotnitz also co-wrote with Carter the screenplay for 1998 feature "X-Files."

Studio is keeping the film's logline under wraps, but stressed the pic is a stand-alone story and supernatural thriller that takes the complicated
relationship between Mulder and Scully in new directions.

Cool news, glad it is stand alone, and glad they are filming in Vancouver as felt X-Files was it its best when filmed there. Still think they should do a few TV movies a year, but excited for the new movie, been a long time for X-Files.

Very cool news.  I'll definitely be seeing this one in theaters.

[Blackride]

One of the best shows ever. So happy to hear this.

Sounds like a quick turnaround....or are we just used to the 1-3 year turnarounds for the likes of Pirates of the Carribean , Star Wars, Trek...etc?

[Ktrek]

I'll probably see this one in the theater as I am a huge X-Files fan. I wouldn't be surprised if Carter doesn't find a way to revive X-Files as a series with a new cast soon. Seems to be the trend now anyway. He might as well jump on the bandwagon.

"X-Files" Movie Lining Up the Stars

Chris Carter's next "X-Files" movie has just signed on rapper Xzibit ("8 Mile"), actress Amanda Peet ("Martian Child") and Billy Connolly ("Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events") to star alongside David Duchovny (Agent Fox Mulder) and Gillian Anderson (Agent Dana Scully) for the long overdue sequel to the first 1998 film and TV series. Carter is adamant to remind fans that this next project is not a sequel but will stand on its own merit.

The Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz script is under tight security. The film will begins production next month in Vancouver and is hoping for a July 2008 release date.

[Jen]

Cool. Personally...All I care about is that David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson will be returning.  :D

Looks like rapper Xzibit, Amanda Peet, Billy Connolly are going to be in the film.

I just hope they bring back Robert Patrick and give him something impotant to do.
