The on again off again continuation of the 1990 TV cult classic, Twin Peaks, is apparently on again. According to the Huffington Post, director David Lynch has agreed to return to the production after budgetary squabbles prompted his abrupt departure. The show is not envisioned as a reboot but rather as a third season for the series.
Kyle McLachlan will return as Agent Dale Cooper, with Sheryl Lee (Laura Palmer) and Dana Ashbrook (Laura’s boyfriend, Bobby) also expected to return. Announcements of other original cast members reprising their roles are possible. Twin Peaks aired on ABC in 1990 and 1991, and followed with a largely incomprehensible movie prequel, Fire Walk With Me, in 1992. The new series will air on Showtime in 2016, 25 years after the original TV production ceased. Lynch will direct the entire series which is expected to run more than nine episodes.
