There isn't any reason not to do it."I feel a commitment to that group of people I worked with and we still enjoy doing it. There is no reason not to come together and do it again. If they can pull it off, we'll find a reason to make it."The actress - who most recently played Agent Scully in 2008's 'The X-Files: I Want To Believe' - said she believed work would start on the next movie in 2012.Earlier this year, it was claimed Gillian would turn down any approaches to make a third movie.A source said: "It took a while for Gillian to establish a career for herself outside the 'The X-Files' and she's now enjoying her acting more than ever before."She's very proud of 'The X-Files' but feels her career has now moved onto a different phase."When the last movie in the franchise was release, Gillian's co-star David Duchovny - who plays agent Fox Mulder - admitted he was hoping it would be a success so he could continue to play the role throughout his career.He said: "It depends very much on this film. I know we've made a great thriller and horror movie. Simply put, if it does the right kind of business, we'll be able to make more. "We hope it becomes kind of a franchise. Coming back was always something I wanted to do. I would love to follow Mulder as he got older and older."
