New Poster for X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE

Our friends at firstshowing.net found this new movie poster for the upcoming X-Files 2 aka
X-Files: I Want to Believe. The only thing — it’s in Polish… The translation at the top: “If you want to discover (find) the truth, you must believe.” More Chris Carter crazy talk.
Six years have passed since we last saw Fox Mulder and Dana Scully running away from an alien-controlled government conspiracy that doomed the future.
After the popular TV series ended, there was always talk of another movie but you know how that stuff doesn’t happen. I guess they really did just need a break (or a lag in their careers) because we got David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and Mitch Pileggi (A.D. Skinner in the series) along with director Chris Carter and co-writer Frank Spotnitz.
Slated for a July 25, 2008 release, X-Files: I Want to Believe has revealed this poster (anyone read Polish?), some leaked trailers, and the original poster. But what, no Doggett?
Also set to star: Billy Connolly (Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, Fido), Amanda Peet (Something’s Gotta Give, Saving Silverman), and Xzibit (8 Mile, xXx: State of the Union)…
Excited about X-Files 2? Or is this franchise done?

Yeah, strange that the big movie poster release for X-Files is in Poland… We’re all wondering what the level of interest still is here in the U.S.
I really appreciate Duchovny as an actor (big fan of Trust the Man), but neither him nor Gillian Anderson have enjoyed stellar film careers. This one will have to succeed on legacy alone I suppose.

I think the film will make a decent profit just from the die-hards alone going to see it multiple times and buying the dvd a few times. I believe it has the potential to grab other viewers but it needs more promotion.
[...] I think the Polish poster was more exciting than the trailer. The trailer just doesn’t give us any new information. [...]
