If that wasn’t enough to whet your appetite, then how about a casting note from The Girlfriend Experience, adding more intrigue to the puzzle: “The lead of the new David Lynch film requires tasteful nudity. Actress with dark hair in their mid to late 20s.” Back in February, there was a supposed insider on Reddit who had posted details about Lynch’s upcoming project, which was said to shoot in late spring, before the pandemic hit, under the working title of “Wisteria.” The rumor had Netflix greenlighting 13 hour-long episodes and a budget of $85 million. The mini-series may or may not have been a set of hour-long movies, it was never confirmed, but then Production Weekly notes posted the day after that the working title listed was indeed “Wisteria.” The listing also stated that production was due to begin in May 2021 and that it would be filming in The Calvert Studios. Lynch was listed as the writer/director for the project. The usually tight-lipped Lynch then revealed on his YouTube channel that he was going to shoot a new movie. And then, radio silence … May 2021 came and went, still no indication that anything was happening. Now we have news that Netflix completely scrapped the project. This comes after the streaming giant pulled the axe on David Cronenberg’s Mini-Series as well. It’s been 3 years since Lynch’s “Twin Peaks: The Return” changed the TV landscape forever, but, more importantly, signaled the return of a true master. Maybe another streamer comes to the rescue of “Wisteria”? Contribute Hire me
