Just as we're all gearing up to catch Scully Gillian Anderson on the big screen in the upcoming X-Files movie [1], Anderson is preparing to produce and star in a biopic about Martha Gellhorn [2].

Anderson's production company acquired the rights to Caroline Moorehead's biography [3] of Gellhorn, who is described as "a trailblazing female war correspondent who covered conflicts from the Spanish Civil War to Vietnam and weathered strife in personal relationships that included a failed marriage to Ernest Hemingway."

According to Anderson, "Martha Gellhorn was one of the most respected journalists of this century, and I thought Caroline's biography effectively encompassed her rich and complex life." I love watching Gillian Anderson onscreen; she brings an air of intelligence to everything she does.

What do you think of Gillian Anderson in a role that doesn't involve the paranormal?
