The $35 mil does seem low, but with all the disinformation it could be $135 mil and we wouldn't know it.

Think trespass and unlocked crew cars. 3rd i wouldnt discount the wolf. why would carter leak the pics only to have fox remove them 2 days later....thats useless p.r Steve, the budget IS $35 million, its not baseless gossip. anderson and duchovny are taking a low wage for (rarely given)percentage of the net profits. 2nd the call sheets are real. the person who posted them went to extraordinary lengths, bordering on illegal to get them.

I don't know why I said that? That was a mistake on my part. ^ Still I think this budget figure is going to go up from 35 mil.

Vic Steve,

I thought that when it was reported that “such and such movie has a budget of $150MM” that didn’t include marketing costs, but was just the cost of production.

Budgets are a strange thing in Hollywood- studios tend to either low-ball or high-ball quotes- depending on marketing and buzz. Also, they could be shooting from the hip TV style- so that could be keeping the budget down. I'm hoping that there is very little FX and that we get a good mature thriller.

The looming WGA strike did incourage FOX to green light this project. ^ Glad Wolfy is hopefully not going to show up in this film. (Really don't care for Wolfman) ^ Concerning the budget at 35mill that seems incredibly low for a X-files film and I'm pretty skeptical on that figure. Marketing alone will be around 10 mil. Actors salery another 20+mil. 5 mill left for production and fx. Naw don't see how that's possible. ^ The budget on this should at least be. somewhere around 50 mil. I'm sure more info will leak out on this. And it is the X-files so I can see Chris Carter pulling together online disinfo conspiracies to confuse us. If that first photo was bunk then, we have to assume were being mislead on this project. Niall I believe that Chris Carter had the script written a long time ago.
