The truth is here:

X-Files leading man David Duchovny recently hooked up with Gillian Anderson and their former series' creator, Chris Carter, to discuss a sequel to their movie - and former hit TV show, of course.

"It was more emotional than I would have thought it was [going to be]," the actor said of the meeting. "If you spend that much time with people and go through that much, there's a lot of residual feeling."

X-Files 2 is tentatively scheduled to shoot in December, with Carter directing from a script that he penned with series scribe Frank Spotnitz.

"I want us to go out and do what the show always did best, which is really smart, scary, ultimately ambiguous stuff," Duchovny said. "There's been a lot of shows and movies that kind of tread the same area, or tried to, and I think we always did it best. And I hope we can go out and do it best again."
