If there is ever such a thing as too much Gillian Anderson, this might be the year for it.
"People are going to get so sick of me," says Anderson, 46, who has lined up four series: Hannibal, The X-Files, Season 3 of BBC's The Fall, and BBC's War and Peace miniseries.
"It's a great time. I'm very fortunate to have the range of stuff
available to me right now," she adds. "It's nice to be able to work out
how to fit as much of it in as possible, and still have a life and be an
active mother to three children."
Anderson knows a thing or two about complex partnerships, having played the skeptical FBI agent Dana Scully to David Duchovny's more credulous Fox Mulder for nine seasons on The X-Files.
The supernatural crime show, which ended in 2002 and inspired two film
sequels, will be revived as a six-episode "event series" next year — an
idea that initially didn't excite Anderson.
"I do enough
television as it is, and it wasn't of interest to me," she says. "But
the more that David and (creator Chris Carter) talked to me about how
much fun it would be, (that) there hadn't been closure before, and it
was unlikely there would ever be another feature, they won me over."
