With Mulder and Scully on the run, X-Files 2 is rumored to star many new characters. Here's a rundown of other plot details we've learned about this upcoming sequel:
Set in a non-descript town, the film opens with an investigation into an alleged Frankenstein-type named Dr. Donarra. According to a former patient, the man's crazy: he keeps fetuses in a jar, while toying with the organs of extra terrestrials.
Later on, mysterious doctor requests a private conversation with his secretary, Vanessa. There's something strange about this chick, however; she refers to herself in the third person , as if she's merely taken over Vanessa's body and is supposed to be taking her "medicine" to cloak whatever Donarra's wants cloaked.
That's all we know for now. But Mulder and Scully first appear after about 30 minutes.

We've shown you The Joker and Iron Man already. Now it's time for a slightly less super hero.
Take a look at these images of Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts from Charlie Wilson's War. With Aaron Sorkin penning the screenplay, we can't wait to see the film...
People love John Rambo and all, but we know what movie they're truly clamoring for photo from:
Iron Man.
With that in mind, here are two more shots from the film that opens on May 2, 2008:
As previously reported, Heath Ledger appears in the latest issue of Empire Magazine as The Joker.
Here are a couple excerpts from the interview the actor gave in that issue:
On a great deal of trepidation when approached for the part of The Joker: "I definitely feared it. Anything that makes me afraid I guess excites me at the same time. I don't know if I was fearless, but I certainly had to put on a brave face and believe that I have something up my sleeve. Something different."
On how he prepared the Joker's sinister voice and laugh: "I sat around in a hotel room in London for about a month, locked myself away, formed a little diary and experimented with voices â" it was important to try to find a somewhat iconic voice and laugh. I ended up landing more in the realm of a psychopath â" someone with very little to no conscience towards his acts.
He's just an absolute sociopath, a cold-blooded, mass-murdering clown, and Chris [Nolan] has given me free rein. Which is fun because there are no real boundaries to what The Joker would say or do. Nothing intimidates him, and everything is a big joke."
Keri Russell has signed on to co-star alongside Adam Sandler in Bedtime Stories.
The actress will play a potential love interest for Sandler's character, a harried real estate developer whose life is suddenly turned upside down when the lavish bedtime stories he tells his niece and nephew become real.
Three years ago, fans became acquainted not only with Abe Sapien and Hellboy, but also the red demon's fiery girlfriend Liz Sherman.
Now, as we inch closer to the July 11 release of Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Universal is debuting a first look at Liz (Selma Blair) in her return to action.
John Rambo is a withdrawn man who is finally at peace with himself because he's checked out of civilaztion. He realizes and believes that war is natural and peace is an accident â" and he wants no part of either.
- Sylvester Stallone, on the state of his famous character in the latest installment
While we often mock a new Rambo movie, chances are good we'll be lining up to see it when it hits theaters. Here's a shot of Stallone in the new film:
After being linked with the project for the past week, Russell Crowe has agreed to step in for Brad Pitt in the political thriller State of Play.
Pitt dropped out last week over script concerns, hurling the remake of the British miniseries into a state of flux.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Crowe is now in "final negotiations" to star opposite Edward Norton, Helen Mirren, Rachel McAdams, Robin Wright Penn, and Jason Bateman in the film.
The paper reports: "Macdonald spent the weekend in Australia wooing Crowe, who had to see if Play could fit into his schedule; Crowe is scheduled to shoot Universal's Nottingham, the Ridley Scott-directed reimagining of the Robin Hood story."
Crowe "will play a political consultant-turned-journalist who heads a newspaper's murder investigation involving a fast-rising politician (Norton)."
The Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier says his film will provide a "fresh start" for the Marvel icon's movie career, and that it will be "more comic book-based and TV show-based" than Ang Lee's 2003 Hulk.
In an interview with WizardUniverse.com, Leterrier also spoke about the film's villains, Abomination (Tim Roth) and General "Thunderbolt" Ross (William Hurt, who replaces Sam Elliott in the role).
"Obviously, General Ross is the villain, so he had to be in it," Leterrier said. "But the Abomination, Emil Blonsky, was who Marvel wanted to put in this chapterâ"the first chapter of our new sagaâ"because he's the most famous. He's an enemy that can actually threaten the Hulk."
The filmmaker added:
"It's very important for me that there is a danger. When Bruce Banner is Hulk, I didn't feel in Ang Lee's Hulk that there was any threat. He was invincible. So with Abomination there's actually a monster that can, you know, kill him when he's in the Hulk form."
The Incredible Hulk opens June 13, 2008.
