Cameras will be rolling in Twin Peaks next month, according to Showtime president David Nevins.

The series, which was written as one long script by Mark Frost and David Lynch, will be filmed as a movie and then divided into episodes during the editing process. Casting is yet to be announced, bar Kyle MacLachlan, but Nevins noted “you should be optimistic that the people you want to be there will be there, in addition to some surprises.”

With regard to Lynch’s temporary exit from the project, Nevins explained that “it became clear it would take more than nine episodes, which we had planned and budgeted for. We had to sort that out. Lynch wanted to direct all episodes, and we wanted him to direct all episodes. We are looking to be in great shape.”

The series may appear next year, but the release date will be dependent on Lynch, who has complete creative control.
