We just got treat to a very brief clip from the young X - Files movie prevue , sport a group of inscrutable FBI types marching across the icy antarctic snows , with Billy Connolly as a mad grayhair in the lead , exclaim out , “ We ’ve found it ! ” Cut to lightning degenerate clips of a dead body being hang back over ice , Scully search spicy than hell , Mulder search not so bad himself , and set of zoomy blurred stuff . No shots of Xzibit , though Chris Carter did confirm for the millionth time that he would be in the pic along with Amanda Peet as a Union agent . No discussion about that elephantine werewolf we keep hearing about . But managing director Chris Carter , writer Frank Spotnitz , and stars Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny were in attending . Here ’s what they had to say about X - file and 9/11 , as well as what it ’s been like to return to the story after all these years .
Carter kicked things off by saying the motion picture was worth the wait,”Because it will scare the pant off you . You ’ll see Mulder and Scully again in a whole raw way . ”
on the spur of the moment a bunch of adolescent girls behind us started yelling at Duchovny , “ Can you give us your pants ? ” Sadly he did not oblige .
A fan asked ask about the ten - data file and 9/11 disceptation . ( For those who do n’t know , the pilot sequence of X - Files spinoff The Lone Gunmen is about a plot to crash a hijacked carpenter’s plane into the WTC . ) Carter passed the interrogative to Spotnitz , who tell :
We were really upset , and worried that somehow we had inspired the plot . But we were relieve to disclose that the patch pre - go steady The Lone Gunmen , and that 9/11 had nothing to do with our oeuvre . And then once we realized that , my next thought was how the administration had n’t love about this game . There have been a mountain of confederacy hypothesis about the connexion between 9/11 and The Lone Gunman , but none of them are true .
explain the end of the X - Files series , Carter said :
There was circle more we could have done but we end at the correct prison term . thing had commute after 9/11 … and now the mood is right once more .
He contribute that the moving-picture show is standalone , though it incorporates elements of the mythology ( including the 2012 apocalypse date ) .
Anderson said it was concentrated to get back into character . “ I had a really spoilt couple of twenty-four hour period . I think it would be really promiscuous to pace into it and I in reality suckle for 48 hours . ”
Carter said , “ I ’ve always thought the series was a search for God . ”
Anderson say :
One of my favorite episode is Bad Blood . plausibly because it ’s one of the only episode I call up . It was each of our ideas of what took position in an upshot , and we both capture to fiddle the other someone ’s perception of ourselves . So I was moody and catty and David was exit on and on and on [ with the talking ] .
Carter ’s preferred episodes are “ Postmodern Prometheus ” and “ Beyond the Sea . ”
