Forget the laid back The X-Files agent or the Californication slacker. In his new TV series Aquarius starring as the hard as nails investigating cop, Duchovny is electrifying.
After nine seasons, two movies and now an event series in the works, it's pretty much ingrained in The X-Files star David Duchovny to not reveal, well, pretty much anything. But, when he sat down with E! News he did reveal some things…just not the spoilers you're craving.
David Duchovny has a decades-spanning IMDB page, so, quite naturally, he's many things to many people. Still, chances are most know the gruff actor in one of two ways: either as Fox Mulder, the incorrigible conspiracy theorist on Fox's nineties sci-fi behemoth The X-Files, or as the womanizing, forever-haphazard-living novelist Hank Moody on Showtime's long-running comedy Californication. Prepare to add another role to the list: Beginning tonight, Duchovny stars as Sergeant Sam Hodiac, a no-nonsense, flattop-sporting, Charles Manson-hunting detective on NBC's new sixties-era drama Aquarius. For the 54-year-old actor, Hodiac was the perfect character to inhabit at this point in his career. "He really encompasses all the things that made both Mulder and Moody and other characters I've done interesting," Duchovny says. "He's a man out of time." Duchovny was affable and forthcoming when Details spoke with him about Aquarius, revisiting The X-Files next month, and his surprise debut as a singer-songwriter.
