Lynch repeating in his weather report today that he doesn't have a film at Cannes this year. I just saw that. He seemed pretty genuine and there would be no reason for him to add that to his weather report unless he really wants to prevent confusion and people being excited for something that doesn...

I'm still trying to keep hope alive but given everything we know so far I'm leaning towards it being far more likely that there's a film debuting at Cannes that Lynch is involved with in some way but not as the director/sole creative force. Something like "Nadja" where he was an Executive ...

One weird thought: is it at all possible there could be a new Twin Peaks related film bowing at Cannes NOT directed by Lynch himself? i.e. something he co-wrote with Frost but being helmed by Jennifer or a trusted collaborator instead? Lynch could be Executive Producer on it but due to age/COVID dec...

All joking and fun speculation aside, I don't really think Lynch would release a feature under a pseudonym. Most likely, if we take his denials at face value, is that he is maybe involved in or otherwise connected to the mystery film (i.e. "The Fablemans" or something he is executive produ...

Or Sabrina showed him the social media kerfuffle and he quickly re-submitted the film under the name "Harley Frost"

New Lavid Dynch film at Cannes confirmed.

Source?

Either this is also a joke going over my head but mine was intended to be also! Just joking that we'll hear an announcement of a project from an obvious pseudonym for Lynch.

New Lavid Dynch film at Cannes confirmed.

Some random tweeter saying his sources suggesting Lynch is lying. And its an extended pilot turned movie.

Nothing to worry about, ladies and gentlemen. Just stop freaking out. We will see in two days. Have faith. Completely agree with the spirit of this and nothing wrong with getting more Zen about all this stuff but re: in two days part...not necessarily. As has been pointed out by some other folks, C...

For what it's worth: https://twitter.com/jasonosia/status/1513985390306340869 sources I’m talking to are saying Lynch is lying. We will know for sure on Thursday. Supposedly an extended pilot turned movie? I normally wouldn't give a random unverified film critic on Twitter with 3K followers any cred...

Counterpoint: as much as I consider myself Team Optimism and really really want there to be a new Lynch film in the works, I wonder at what point the buck will stop and a denial will truly be the end of it. I mean, at a certain point the cat would have to get let out of the bag if there was a new wo...

The festival declined to comment.

That seems the most telling to me. If it was indeed some big mix-up or hoax I'd assume they would firmly put a stop to the rumors with a concrete denial.

The Variety reporter who broke the news is Elsa Keslassy, but she didn't react to the Lynch denial yet. Her article contained another scoop in dispute right now (the premiere of Pixar's 'Lightyear', which has been denied by Deadline). Else Keslassy is Variety's Foreign Correspondent, based in Franc...

Not to necessarily fan the flames of blind optimism but if Lynch and crew were hoping to keep the secret of the film for as long as possible and the timing of this EW interview happened to line up with the advance leak (keep in mind that even though the primary Cannes line-up is being announced on T...
