After days of speculation and rumor, Twin Peaks fans finally have some good (and concrete) news to look forward to: The surreal and seminal 1990s drama, from creators David Lynch and Mark Frost, will be returning in 2016.
Showtime announced via press release that Lynch and Frost will write and produce each of the nine episodes in the limited series, which will air on Showtime in 2016, 25 years after the series wrapped up its run. Even more intriguing: Lynch is attached to direct each of the nine installments. The series, which will go into production next year, will be set in the present day and will continue plots that were left dangling when the show was cancelled in 1991.
"The mysterious and special world of Twin Peaks is pulling us back," said Frost and Lynch in a prepared statement. "We're very excited. May the forest be with you."
Additionally, Showtime announced that it will be airing all 30 original episodes of Twin Peaks in preparation for the launch of the limited series.
Showtime released the following video today, teasing the return of Twin Peaks:
