Talk of a Third ‘X-Files’ More Real as Gillian Anderson Expresses Strong Interest (Again)
As stated multiple times since the last piece of crap hit theaters, Gillian Anderson is still ready to reprise her iconic role as Dana Scully in a third X-Files film, says THR.
The site reports from the world premiere in Sydney of Universal’s Johnny English Reborn, in which Anderson plays the head of fictional MI7 opposite Rowan Atkinson, and reports that Anderson said that there is definite talk of X-Files 3.
“I hope it will happen, there’s talk of it,” she told Australian breakfast TV program Sunrise.
“I don’t know who’s writing it but I hear there’s something going on,” she said.
And she indicated that there could be more life in the franchise, saying she wants to do a film spoof of the hit Fox TV series.
“I’ve always wanted to do a spoof of the X Files as a film,” she said.
“We talked about that for a long time but maybe after three features we could get to do a spoof feature.”
The 2008 The X-Files: I Want to Believe was absolutely horrendous and flopped at the boxoffice raking in only $21 million. Although, it is worth noting that it pulled in $68 million worldwide, which quite possibly could warrant talk of another sequel.
It’s been 17 years since the release of horror sequel The Descent: Part 2, and the film is returning to physical media with a brand new 4K Ultra HD SteelBook from Lionsgate Limited.
This marks the first time The Descent: Part 2 has been released on 4K in the U.S.
Now up for pre-order, the 4K SteelBook will be released on August 11, 2026.
The Descent: Part 2 follows Sarah Carter (Shauna Macdonald) — dazed, bloodied, and speechless — as she emerges alone from the Appalachian cave system where the events of The Descent occurred. Forced back underground to help the rescue team search for her missing girlfriends, Sarah’s fractured memories begin to return, and she realizes the full horror of what lurks in the depths of the caves. But the rescue team is about to face a new tribe of deformed crawlers — even more viciously feral than those Sarah encountered before.
