Apparently, there are some ideas in stock, but their relevance is still a big question.

Summary:

  • Started in the 1990s, David Lynch’s iconic show ended its television run only in 2017 with 3 seasons in total, but a recent update from his producing partner may suggest some big revival plans.
  • According to the producer, the director still has some more ideas for another season, though there’s still nothing to say about other writers’ opinions on this.
  • The show’s revival would definitely have been a great success, though there’s still a lot of unresolved issues concerning the original network and actors’ desire for yet another collaboration.

Launched more than thirty years ago, David Lynch’s iconic mystery drama show Twin Peaks had a long and quite unstable television run with the second season potentially wrapping it all up back in 1991 and then coming back again with season 3 in 2017.

However badly the longtime fans of the series wanted to see more of Special Agent Dale Cooper on the screen, Twin Peaks had almost zero chances to be ever revived, but a significant update from the show’s executive producer might turn things into a new direction.

During her latest Q&A online section, David Lynch’s producing partner Sabrina Sutherland was asked whether the director had some ideas stock for Twin Peaks’ potential fourth season. The producer revealed that, though she’s mostly not a part of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s writing team, she’s yet aware of the fact that Lynch had never given up on another season anyway.

She then clarified that she was sure the director had some more ideas, but she had no idea about Frost’s opinion about them.

The news about Twin Peaks’ potential revival comes as something quite unexpected given that many members of the original crew and cast didn’t consider such an option, including Kyle McLachlan who got the leading role in the series.

The actor previously even stated that he wouldn’t even like to see a reboot highlighting that some stories should be preserved in the cinema history and thus remain untouched. On top of that, a couple of years ago even the exec of Showtime, the network that broadcast Twin Peaks back then, revealed that the company would very unlikely be interested in continuing with the story.

Given Sutherland’s recent update, David Lynch’s plans for the legendary show’s potential future remain even unclearer than before.

Even if Showtime doesn’t give any sign of desire to collaborate again, some other big producing companies will most likely not dare to turn away from the proclaimed director and a possibly success-promising project, though many fans were actually just fine with how the series ended back in 2017.
