IT'S D FOR DUCHOVNY'S FIRST WRITER/DIRECTOR MOVIE GIG

Former 'X-Files' star David Duchovny will make his feature writing/directing debut with 'House of D', which is expected to begin production in September.

He will also appear in the film alongside his wife, Tea Leoni, and Robin Williams.

'House of D' is described as an emotional fable about New York and the sweeping power of friendship.

It tells the multi-layered story of a man coming to terms with his past and his present and resolving his relationships with the people who helped make him who he is.

Williams will play the lead character, with much of the story being told through flashbacks to his childhood, where he will be portrayed by Tyler Hoechlin ('Road to Perdition').

'In essence, this film is a very funny and poignant look at a classic rites-of-passage story', said Ovation CEO Richard B. Lewis, who will serve as a producer.

While the project marks Duchovny's feature writing and directing debut, he did write and direct several episodes of 'The X-Files' during its lengthy run on Fox. He next appears onscreen in the Universal Pictures comedy 'Connie and Carla.'

Ovation Entertainment and Bob Yari Prods. have teamed to finance and produce the film.
