A few days ago, Moviehole reported a few spoiler details on The X-Files movie sequel, based on a script side. Turns out the truth was not out there. Some astute X-Philes noticed that the scenes were from the TV series. Chris Carter was using them for casting. (Sides are pages of dialogue used during the casting process). According to the updated article on Moviehole, the unfamiliar names of what at first seemed to be two new FBI agent characters were on Mulder and Scully's lines.
The sequel, which will be written by Frank Spotnitz and series creator Chris Carter, who will also direct, starts filming on December 10 in Vancouver, B.C. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson will return as Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. That's about all we know; rumors are already flying.
Ain't It Cool News got a report from a fan that Lance Henrikson, who played Frank Black in Chris Carter's TV series Millennium, was coy when asked if he would be in X-Files 2.
The code name for the sequel movie appears to be "Done One."
The website The Whistler Question, a newspaper covering the Whistler and Pemberton areas of B.C., has reported that filming on the sequel will take place in Pemberton in early February. The filmmakers reportedly got permission from the town council to close off part of a road because they needed snow cover.
Meanwhile, MTV spoke to Nicolas Lea, who played fan-favorite bad boy Alex Krycek. He said as far as he knew, he wasn't in the sequel, and gave his opinion on the demise of his character: "I was a little bummed at first, but I feel like maybe Krycek was actually dead when that bullet went through his head."
No word on whether Mitch Pileggi will reprise his role as Assistant Director Skinner.
Laurie Holden, who portrayed Mulder's informant Marita Covarrubias, told the MTV movie blog that “if they call I would love that.” Sounds like, so far, they haven't.
There are going to be a lot of rumors flying around between now and when more official details come to light.
In the meantime: trust no one.

I applaud you wholeheartedly for this well sourced and perfectly articulate article. As you can imagine fans have been somewhat perturbed by lazy journalism in immediately posting the so called spoilers without fact checking. Your article however is perfect.
