Gillian Anderson Opens Up About Her Sexual Antics
Gillian Anderson, the 56-year-old star of The X Files, has spoken candidly about her views on sex, revealing that she believes it can be enjoyable "anywhere". The actress, who played Special Agent Dana Scully alongside David Duchovny’s Fox Mulder in the hit sci-fi show, made the comments during an interview with The Sunday Times.
According to an article in The Daily Star, Anderson, who has also starred in TV series Sex Education, said that she loves having sex in a tent or the back of a car. The actress, who has a reputation for being frank about her sex life, said that if "needs must" sex was good "anywhere".
The comments were reported by The Daily Star and were made in relation to her upcoming film, The Salt Path. The movie, which is due for release in the UK on May 30, is based on a book by Raynor Winn about her and her husband Moth’s real-life trek around the 630-mile South West Coast Path. In the film, Anderson gets frisky with co-star Jason Isaacs in a tent.
Anderson’s comments about sex in unusual locations have sparked interest among fans, particularly given her reputation for playing strong and independent characters. As The Daily Star previously reported, the actress has also written a book called Want, a collection of women’s sexual fantasies, which was published last year.
The star’s views on sex and relationships have been shaped by her experiences and her work on various TV shows and films. As The Daily Star noted, Anderson has starred in several projects that explore themes of sex and relationships, including Sex Education and Euphoria.
In addition to her film and TV work, Anderson has also been the subject of speculation about a potential return to The X Files. The Daily Star reported that the star may be reprising her role as Dana Scully in a reboot of the show, which is rumoured to be in development for Disney Plus.
Anderson has reportedly held talks with Hollywood director Ryan Coogler, who has written a revival series of the 1990s hit drama. Coogler has described the remake as "f** scary", but has expressed his admiration for Anderson, calling her "incredible".
The news of a potential reboot of The X Files has sparked excitement among fans, who have been eagerly awaiting new episodes of the show. As The Daily Star reported, Anderson’s return as Dana Scully would be a major coup for the show, which has a dedicated and loyal fan base.
In the interview with The Sunday Times, Anderson also touched on the topic of taboo surrounding sex and sexual fantasy. As quoted by The Daily Star, she said: "Sex and sexual fantasy are still very much taboo, even though we have shows like Sex Education and Euphoria and Fifty Shades of Grey."
