David Duchovny drew massive attention for his role as Fox William "Spooky" Mulder on the science fiction series
The X-Files. He portrayed a FBI special agent who believed in UFOs and government conspiracies, and focused on mysterious unsolved cases with his FBI partner and closest friend, Dana Scully. Distinctly known for his sardonic sense of humor, he established a trademark with his dry jokes even in the face of the most bizarre and dangerous incidents. Apart from his cynical persona, he was most known for his porn habits, which were recurrently perceived as a joke on throughout the series.

Because Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz have yet to complete a script and FOX hasn't greenlighted it.

Why no mention of the impending X-Files movie, which is said to be in the works?
After 175 episodes of
The X-Files, Duchovny appeared in television shows like
Sex and the City, and had a recurring role on
Life with Bonnie as the character Johnny Volcano. He worked on video games, providing voice on
The X-Files: Resist of Serve as his notable TV character Fox Mulder, and on
Area 51 as Ethan Cole. His flair for voice acting also landed him gigs in the film
Queer Duck: The Movie, in the game XIII, and as the narrator of the television series
Eco-Challenge Fiji Islands. In the big screen, he became part of films such as
Full Frontal, Connie and Carla, House of D, Trust the Man and
The TV Set.
Duchovny has just completed a movie entitled
The Secret, a horror thriller remake of the 1999 film Himitsu. Cast as Dr. Benjamin Marris, the film is about a story of a mother who passed away, and whose spirit eventually returns to her daughter’s body with a dark secret. Slated for 2007, the movie also stars Lily Taylor as Hannah Marris and Olivia Thirlby as Samantha Marris. The 46-year old actor will also be starring in
Things We Lost in the Fire, which will hit the theaters on September 14, 2007. In the drama, he will be playing the role of Steve, joining other cast members such as Halle Berry, Benicio Del Toro, and Alison Lohman. Furthermore, he is also set to appear on the TV pilot
Californication, in which he will play the character Hank Moody.
