David Duchovny says a cell phone meant he could have time off from 'The X-Files'.
The actor - who reprises his role as Fox Mulder in new movie 'The X-Files: I Want To Believe' - admits the portable phone was vital in helping him have a break from work because it meant him and co-star Gillian Anderson didn't have to be in scenes together.
He said: "The cell phone was instrumental in us being able to have time off because we could split up and we didn't have to be in the same room to have a conversation. I'm being totally serious. I could have some time off and Gillian could have some time off and we'd just talk on the phone to one another rather than being in every scene together."
David also revealed he and the movie's director Chris Carter could never agree on how much humour to allow into the sci-fi film.
He added: "Chris and I always battled over that. In the series it got in more and more for both of us as we went on and did what we thought of as the funny episodes and we both enjoyed doing those because they were like vacations.
"But in terms of me coming up with stuff in the moment, usually Chris doesn't like that because he has a different theory about the tension than I do. He really feels like it lets the air out of things and he doesn't like to do that. I feel like I like to let the air out. So that's just a difference of opinion that we have."
