The second X-Files movie finally has a title: The X-Files: I Want to Believe. (via The Associated Press)
The name comes from a poster (pictured above) that hung in FBI Agent Fox Mulder’s conspiracy-filled office.
The X-Files: Fight the Future came out in theaters in 1998 and the long-running TV series ended in 2002.
Producers say the sequel, which reunites stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, will shed the burden of the series’ UFO-laden “mythology” in favor of a story that captures the spirit of the more popular stand-alone episodes.
The plot is still shrouded in secrecy.
I think the title I Want to Believe is perfect — it will appeal to longtime fans and should intrigue others enough to take a look. What do you think?

I can’t wait for this movie. As a longtime fan, this is a dream come true for me. And I really do want to believe the movie will be a big success and draw in new fans. Then, who knows, maybe there will be an X-Files 3 down the road.
