It's Showtime for Duchovny's TV return

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- David Duchovny is eyeing his first
regular TV role since "The X-Files" went off the air, with a new
dramatic series on the U.S. cable network, Showtime.

The 46-year-old actor is reportedly in talks to serve as both the lead
and executive producer on a new unnamed pilot, which could become
Duchovny's first major TV role since 2000, said Daily Variety.

The drama is said to focus on a single father trying to raise his
child while battling an addiction to both drugs and sex.

The actor, who played FBI agent Fox Mulder on "The X-Files," is also
set to rejoin forces with director Bart Freundlich for the new Showtime
comedy series, "Yoga Man."

Duchovny will write the pilot for the comedy along with Freundlich,
who had previously directed the actor in the film "Trust the Man."

Daily Variety said Duchovny recently finished work on the film "Things
We Lost in the Fire," in which he shared screen time with Benicio Del
Toro and Halle Berry.

Ever since David Duchovny left The X-Files, there has been a little
empty place in my heart. Fear not, Duchovny fans, for he returns again
to the small screen! This time, however, he’ll be working with Showtime
on two projects, according to a report from Variety. One series in the
works would have Duchovny starring as a writer addicted to sex and
drugs—who is trying to raise a child on his own. The pilot does not
have a title attached yet. He will also executive produce the series.
But wait—there’s more! He’s also writing a comedy pilot with Bart
Freundlich, called Yoga Man, which is said to be similar to the movie
Shampoo (with Warren Beatty), only set in a yoga studio. Hmm. Ahh, just
when I’d gotten the last of Duchovny out of my system, he’s back again.
Welcome back to the small screen, David.

David Duchovny is returning to primetime television, teaming with
Showtime on a pair of series projects, according to Variety.

The actor is finalizing a deal to topline and executive produce the
cable channel's untitled drama pilot about a novelist trying to raise a
kid on his own while battling an addiction to sex and drugs.

If the project is picked up to series, it will be Duchovny's first
regular TV role since The X-Files wrapped in 2000.

Duchovny also has set up the comedy series Yoga Man, described as
Shampoo in a yoga studio, at Showtime. He'll write the pilot script
with Bart Freundlich, who directed Duchovny in the feature Trust the
Man, and Scott Burns (Wonderland).

In the untitled drama, Duchovny will star as Hank Moody, a charming but
self-destructive writer and father of one, whose obsession with women
and honesty both enriches and harms his life and work.

Tom Kapinos (Dawson's Creek) created the show. He'll exec produce with
Duchovny and helmer Stephen Hopkins (24). Latter also is attached to
direct the pilot.
