A month after David Lynch pulled out of Showtime’s Twin Peaks reboot, the director and Showtime confirmed on Friday that Lynch is back.
“This damn fine cup of coffee from Mark and David tastes more delicious than ever. Totally worth the extra brewing time and the cup is even bigger than we expected. David will direct the whole thing which will total more than the originally announced nine hours. Pre production starts now!!” said David Nevins, President of Showtime Networks, Inc. in a statement.
“Dear Twitter Friends, the rumors are not what they seem ….. It is !!! Happening again. #TwinPeaks returns on @SHO_Network,” Lynch wrote on Twitter.
Back in April, Lynch cited an insufficient budget for departing the reboot. “After 1 year and 4 months of negotiations, I left because not enough money was offered to do the script the way I felt it needed to be done,” he wrote at the time.
