Gillian Anderson knows everything, especially under the name of Dana Scully - a special FBI agent from the television series "X-Files". And very few people know that behind this strict image is really a passionate nature. However, the actress played so that we all believed - she is so in life. And now - a surprise: Gillian Anderson and 9 chapters from her secret materials! Believe me, you did not know about it.
1. Gillian from childhood could not find a common language with peers in the literal sense of this expression. Born an actress in a suburb of Chicago, her father was engaged in film distribution, so their family often had to move. In her youth, Gillian lived and studied in London, where she was often teased for an American accent. The girl worked hard to speak, finally, in English. And she succeeded. But after spending several years there, the Anderson family again had to move to the States, to the small town of Grand Rapide, and there they laughed again, but because of the English accent.
2. For ever loved London, Gillian could not forgive her parents a sudden move to America. As a teenager, Gillian went to England on vacation, and returned completely different person. Protesting against the whole world, she chose a new image: her hair was shaved on the temples, in the middle was a tall bright red Iroquois, huge army boots, Doctor Martine, a cheap camouflage dress and a pin in her nose. Respectful Americans turned away from her in disgust as well as she did from them.
3. It is difficult to imagine, but the image of a serious and chaste Dana Scully is difficult to try on young Anderson. Behind her is a rather dirty past: cheap booze, cheap drugs, hooliganism and conflicts with the police, numerous sexual connections indiscriminately. It was her favorite lifestyle, and the motto for this existence was the phrase "Live fast - die young."
4. Despite the difficult teenage period, Gillian did not choose the career of a prostitute or drug dealer, but for all to go to Chicago and enter the theatrical school of Goodman. Up to 22 years, Gillian played in the theater and in episodic roles in the cinema, and for her role in the play "Missing Friends" even won a World Theater Award. To somehow fight the constant shortage of money, the future star moonlighted as a waitress in healthy eating restaurants. This even more hardened her already morale.
5. His fame Anderson is obliged to the producer of the "X-Files" Chris Carter. It was he who persuaded the members of the commission at the casting to accept her candidacy. People who were going to shoot the series, looking for a couple of David Duchovny (whom they, incidentally, approved for the role very quickly), a long-legged blonde with big breasts. However, Chris Carter insisted on the low-reddish Gillian Anderson, arguing that this is what he imagines special agent Dan Scully. How he was right! Pyshnogrudye blondes with clever faces are already stuffed all over, and Dana turned out to be the missing ingredient in the then movie show.
6. One "service novel" Miss Anderson nearly destroyed the success of the cult "X-Files". The actress signed a contract for shooting for 5 years, but no one thought that Gillian would secretly marry the art director of the crew of Clyde Klotz and, moreover, become pregnant with him. A terrible scandal broke out: Clotz was fired, and Anderson was forced to withdraw during all 9 months of pregnancy.
7. Few people know that Gillian was shot not only during pregnancy, but also 10 days after birth. Thanks to Chris Carter's scenario ploy, Scilly was abducted by aliens - this provided Gillian with a small amount of breathing to give birth and recover a little after the hardest delivery. According to critics, this season of X-Files was the most successful due to the amazingly naturalistic play of the main actress.
8. 3a many years of filming in the "Secret Materials" Gillian has mastered the fear of forever remaining Agent Scully. Actually, many actors pass through this, not everyone can get out. Gillian again tried to protest against the whole world: she started a novel on the side, acted in defiant dresses for the covers of various magazines, and once even disappeared, leaving Chris Carter and the rest of the creators of the series in a panic. True, all this quickly ended.
9. It is said that the life of the actress has changed dramatically thanks to a fortuneteller who advised her to divorce Clyde Klotz, return to the series and seriously engage in the education of her daughter Piper. So Gillian did it. After that, the fear of staying forever Dana Scully left the actress. And in January 2005 Anderson second time married, this one for the film producer Julian Ozanna. The wedding was very quiet, among the guests were only the closest people, and as a bridesmaids girl was 10-year-old Piper.
