X-Files 2 Early DVD Details

We caught up with Frank Spotnitz earlier in the week and got to talk to him about X-Files 2. As part of this he spilled the beans on what we can expect for the DVD release of X Files I want to Believe on DVD. When asked about the Blu-Ray and what we could expect Frank told us;

I had no idea what Blu-Ray could do.  I thought it was just a higher definition picture, but it’s much more than that.  We are trying to think of every possible way to exploit the Blu-Ray medium.  Those discussions are still continuing.  We’ve been working on the Blu-Ray and the DVD release for months already. 

It’s going to be packed with a lot of bonus features.  I’m sure they’ll want to announce what is on them specifically, but there will be a gag reel, a making of, as there always are, multiple commentaries, both audio and video that you can access in a unique way because it’s Blu-Ray.  We are going to take advantage of the online feature in a way we haven’t determined yet.  There are deleted scenes.  There is an extended version of the movie, then there are deleted scenes.  I’m going to get it wrong if I try to tell you which scenes are going into which.  There will be a lot of extras.

As for how much longer the extended cut DVD will be..

It’s not significantly longer.  It’s only a few minutes longer, but it’s more explicit, and a little more emotional, believe it or not.

Be sure to checkout X-Files 2 when it hits theatres July 25th!
