X-Files News is on Archival Mode. Updates are on hiatus.

 

Gillian Anderson has been one busy bee with new TV shows coming out soon (The Fall and Hannibal) as well as a couple of movies. Now Anderson fans have a couple more reasons to be excited as she has been added to Jon Wright's' Our Robots Overlords, a new Sci-Fi film by UK Embankment Films.

This will be Anderson's first Sci-Fi project since The X-Files. With a script by Caroline Thompson (Edward Scissorhands and A Nightmare Before Christmas) which is based on Rupert Wyatt’s adaptation of Sebastian Faulks’ acclaimed novel Birdsong and Andy Serkis’ 3D imagining of the George Orwell's Animal Farm, Our Robots Overlords has good reasons to get fans excited. Joining Anderson in this film is also Sir Ben Kingsley (Schindler's List and Hugo).

Head over to ScreenDaily for more information on Our Robots Overlords.

Gillian Anderson has also been making appearances at Cons all over the world. Canadian fans can once again be excited as she has just been added to Ottawa ComicCon which will take place in Ottawa, ON May 10-12. Anderson will be appearing on Saturday and Sunday only. Don't miss out on this incredible chance to meet the woman behind our favorite skeptical FBI Agent.
