David Duchovny lists Malibu estate with train caboose as guest house for $12.5M
David Duchovny is saying goodbye to the Malibu estate he’s called home for nearly two decades — and he’s asking a whopping $12.5 million for…
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson enjoyed a The X-Files reunion onstage at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Saturday.
Gillian, 56, and David, 64, became household names thanks to their starring roles on the sci-fi drama, which ran from 1993 to 2002.
Now, more than two decades after the series drew to a close, its leads found themselves together again while handing out a prize to their colleagues.
They took the stage at the Shrine Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles to present the award for outstanding ensemble cast in a drama series.
The pair hilariously fumbled through the task, to the point that a woman could at one point be heard shouting instructions at them from backstage.
‘We still got it,’ said Gillian drily, before she and her old co-star handed out the prize to the cast of the buzzy period drama Shogun.

The bit began promisingly, with David delivering the joke: ‘”Ensemble,” I believe that’s a French word that means: “Thank God I only have to work three days a week.”‘
However, once the pair had to work through a bit of back-and-forth banter, the pair of them began to trip over their pre-written dialogue.
The biggest stumbling block came when they had to name the ‘one thing’ that they both felt was essential to creating a ‘great drama.’
Evidently, the idea was for them to agree that the secret ingredient was ‘a special thing’ they could neither ‘buy’ nor ‘fake’ – but when the time came for them to say what the quality was, they would give different answers simultaneously.
However, a wrench was thrown in the works when David said his answer first: ‘Timing,’ leaving Gillian to awkwardly throw in: ‘Chemistry,’ a few seconds later.
‘We still got it,’ Gillian deadpanned, before breaking into a forced smile and saying: ‘Hilarious! It’s hilarious! It was so good. We did that so well.’
David then tried to quickly announce the winner so that he and Gillian could ‘get out of here as soon as we can,’ and made to open the envelope.
Gillian then attempted to haltingly remind him that they had yet to announce any of the nominees, which they were supposed to do before declaring a winner.

Eventually, after a woman backstage was heard bellowing instructions at them, the pair managed to complete their task as assigned.
Gillian and David’s latest award show appearance comes 28 years after she famously kissed him at the Emmy Awards when she won for The X-Files.
The moment fell under searing public scrutiny because Gillian planted a smooch on David before she kissed her then-boyfriend Rodney Rowland.
Last year, Gillian posted an Instagram video in which she finally revealed why she turned her attention to David before her real-life love interest.
‘I don’t know why I kissed him first,’ Gillian confessed: ‘I guess because he was on the show with me and we were practically married because we spent more time with each other than we did with our loved ones. We were there to celebrate the series and so yeah. Maybe? Maybe that’s what it was?’
Meanwhile David and Gillian shared last year that they clashed severely during the making of The X-Files, to the point of sometimes not speaking for weeks on end.
‘There was a long time, working on the show, where we were just not even dealing with one another off-camera,’ David said.
Gillian, who was his guest on his podcast Fail Better, observed that they had been in a ‘kinda crazy’ situation but had managed to work through it professionally.
‘I mean, it’s crazy that we were able to present on camera, you know, the various feelings and emotions and attraction and all that kind of stuff,’ she said: ‘but then not speak to each other for weeks at a time.’
David said their friction ‘didn’t matter, apparently, for the work cause we’re both f***ing crazy, I guess – we could just go out there and do what we needed to do.’
