David Duchovny reveals ‘failure of friendship’ with X Files co-star Gillian Anderson amid tension on hit show

As a devoted fan of The X-Files, I’ve always been captivated by the enigmatic bond between Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, played by David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson respectively. Reading about their personal struggles during the series only deepens my fascination with this iconic duo.

David Duchovny expressed that the connections between him and Gillian Anderson, his fellow star in The X-Files, became strained while they worked together on the popular Fox show.

64-year-old actor from The X-Files, recently invited his longstanding TV partner, aged 56, onto his Lemonada Media podcast titled “Fail Better.” In an upcoming episode slated for release on Tuesday, they delved into the highs and lows of their shared career history.

In the science fiction series where Duchovny portrayed Fox Mulder alongside Dana Scully, played by Anderson, he mentioned that during the initial airing of the show from 1993 to 2002 (across nine seasons), there was a strain in their friendship.

Although the show had been a great success, the Emmy-nominated actor mentioned that his communication with Anderson was virtually non-existent due to a significant amount of tension between them.

For quite some time during the production of the show, Duchovny mentioned that we barely interacted with each other outside of our roles on camera.

In an interview, the star of Californication pointed out that the tension he felt with Anderson didn’t seem to show up in their acting on the show.

It seemed that the task didn’t require much concern since we’re both quite eccentric, it appears. In other words, we were free to venture out and handle whatever was necessary, according to Duchovny.

Anderson admitted the circumstances were quite extraordinary, implying it showcased their exceptional skills as entertainers.

Anderson expressed surprise, saying it was astonishing that they could openly express a range of feelings, attractions, and emotions on camera, yet go weeks without speaking to each other.

During their time on the show, Duchovny rarely discussed his or Anderson’s personal histories with each other extensively.

‘I don’t know that we ever sat down and said, “Hey, what was your childhood like?”‘ Duchovny said.

Anderson commented, “We didn’t do it, and there was no need to. We were engrossed in our own activities. We share a unique bond unlike most others, having experienced something together that we didn’t encounter with anyone else.

‘Indeed, there was a team involved, but from an actor’s perspective, it sparked my curiosity for an intriguing exploration.’

In his own words, Duchovny admitted that he believes he could have shown more tact in certain situations. However, he also suggested that the underlying tension between them may have positively influenced the intensity and authenticity of their on-screen portrayals.

Duchovny stated, “We’re setting funds aside – I’m not sure how much exactly. Also, you should remember that we underwent an incredibly challenging process with this project. At first, I was relatively green to the game. To be honest, you were extremely inexperienced as well.

Suddenly, I found myself swept up in a wave, a pre-Internet movement that seemed to be sweeping the globe. I and others like me were frantically trying to make sense of our identity amidst this whirlwind.

Anderson commended her former acting partner for his exceptional work on their podcast, which boasts an impressive lineup of guests such as Bette Midler, Andy Cohen, Rosie O’Donnell, Sean Penn, and Ben Stiller.

Anderson commented, ‘As I delved deeper into your discussions with others, I found myself gaining insights about you that went beyond what I already knew.’

Duchovny also stated, “We are intimately acquainted with one another, but there remains a peculiar mystery about our relationship as well.
