Gillian Anderson made an appearance at the Sarajevo Film Festival where she spoke briefly about the X-Files and whether there is any potential of a third feature film:
They talked about maybe doing it in 2012, I think there were discussions about that. I don’t know whether that’s going to happen or not, but there isn’t any reason not to do it. It was fun, it was hard work. I feel a certain commitment to that group of people that I worked with and we still enjoy doing it, when we do it. There is no reason why not to come together and do it again. If they can pull it off, we’ll find some reason to make it.
As long as there’s a lot of Mulder and Scully, it’s all gravy!
ABC is teaming with “Friends” creator Marta Kauffman and Warner Bros. Television to adapt The Time Traveler’s Wife as a weekly series.
The news follows this weekend’s successful opening of the motion-picture version of “Time Traveler’s.” Starring Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams, the New Line movie grossed nearly $20 million in its first three days and served as successful counterprogramming to more male-dominated fare.
ABC’s interest in the adaptation substantially pre-dates the movie, however. The network has been talking to Kauffman “for years” about bringing the project to the small screen, industry insiders said.
Kauffman will write and executive produce.
ABC executives believe the complex plot of the original novel will work well in series form, since Kauffman will be able to explore the romantic relationship at the core of the story over the course of several seasons.
Individual episodes will likely feature self-contained storylines as well.
ABC has given Warner’s TV a pilot commitment for “Time Traveler’s.” It’s not yet clear whether Brad Pitt’s Plan B banner, which produced the movie version with New Line, will be involved.
First published as a novel in 2003, “Time Traveler’s” revolves around a man named Henry (played by Bana in the movie) with a genetic disorder that results in spontaneous time travel. He ends up falling in love and marrying Clare (McAdams), an artist who patiently endures his frequent disappearances.
The novel was the debut for author Audrey Niffenegger.
Kauffman’s most recent effort for ABC was two years ago, when she teamed with Goldie Hawn to develop the nonfiction book “Leap! What Will We Do with the Rest of Our Lives?”
It’s true and it breaks me heart. Lionsgate is developing a remake of the 1987 classic Dirty Dancing from a new script by the writer of the film Uptown Girl (that film was alright).
The original, released in theaters by Vestron, staring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey. It was made for $6 million but went on to earn $213.95 million worldwide.
A follow-up, titled Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights, was distributed by Lionsgate in 2004. Produced for $25 million, the movie earned just $27.7 million worldwide.
That should say something right there, KEEP AWAY LIONGATE!!!!

The sixth season of NBC’s beloved comedy The Office might be more accurately titled “Office Romance,” as love will be in the air for the employees of Dunder Mifflin despite an economic downturn – including the much-anticipated wedding of expectant parents Jim and Pam.
Last season ended with the engaged Jim (John Krasinski) and Pam (Jenna Fischer) appearing to discover that they were pregnant, and the couple will indeed have a baby – and accelerated nuptials – on the way, as TV Guide Magazine first reported. “The wedding will be the fourth and fifth episode – It’ll be an hour long,” confirms co-executive producer Paul Lieberstein, who also plays HR director Toby Flenderson.
“We will be seeing the wedding, we’ll meet their family,” Lieberstein said, though otherwise their relationship will continue to be primarily viewed at the couple’s workplace. “We’re going to try to see it in the office, how that affects people who work together.
“I loved when they said we were going to have a baby before got married, that we would find out that we got pregnant before we got married,” said Krasinski. “I think that’s real and it’s gutsy.”
“It was fun to do something out of order with them,” added Lieberstein. “They’re obviously a good couple, but just to throw real, little, very simple obstacles in front of them and then they’re the kind of people who deal with small things in an amusing way. Jim has a good sense of humor and Pam can get worked up over things. So we thought that it was an interesting way to do it.”
“Trying on the wedding dresses for Pam was emotional,” admitted Fischer, who’d just come from a fitting session and is engaged in real life. “It really felt significant. It feels like she’s a person I’ve been routing for, for so long, and to see her finally getting her dream come true is neat.”
Fischer thinks there’s a reason the Jim/Pam romance has thrived over the years when other TV romances fizzles. “When the relationship was still an unrequited love relationship I would get a lot of fan mail from people who were also pining away for someone else in their office,” she said. “Now I’m getting a bunch of mail saying ‘I can’t wait to see you guys have a baby because we’re expecting!” And so I feel we’re kind of growing up with our fans, and we’re going though those same life stages as the people who’ve been watching us from the beginning.”
Greta’s a trip, but she’s not a vacation. She’s seventeen, bright, beautiful and seriously rebellious, full of sarcastic wit that barely disguises the hurt inside. Pushed aside by her mother, Karen, who is on her third marriage and counting, Greta is shipped off to her grandparents for the summer, and she’s not happy about it. In fact, she tells them that she fully intends to kill herself before the summer is over and is currently compiling a notebook of suicide methods. Acerbic, yet winningly impulsive, Greta is a stunning force of nature, disrupting her grandparents’ staid and settled lives and the Jersey Shore community they live in as well. But a near catastrophe gives Greta a wake-up call and demonstrates how deeply her own actions impact those around her. Greta’s growing love for her elderly grandparents, along with the excitement of her first summer romance, gradually strips away her defenses, revealing the promising, charismatic young woman underneath her shell.

Now he’s determined to do something with his life, but as their romance heats up, Greta has to overcome the concerns of her grandparents (Burstyn, Murphy) about her new friend’s criminal past.
