Gillian Anderson – still looking quite the dish at 43 – was out flogging the new “Johnny English” sequel in Sydney over the weekend and, naturally, was asked about the chances of a third “X-Files” film.

The good news? Sounds like it’s definitely happening. The bad news? We haven’t got much to go on at the moment.

Sunrise’s Kylie Speer just dropped this tweet : Just interviewed Gillian Anderson…she is super stunning in real life and said she hopes a new #X-Files 2012 movie will be out next year!

Next year!? Isn’t that too soon? Wouldn’t the film have to already be in production by now? Whatever the case, tune into the show tomorrow to see whether Speer has mistaken 2012 as the start date or release date; suppose the only thing that’ll really matters to “X-Files” fans is that that oft-rumoured third film sounds like it’s a reality.
