Despite the exaggeration, David Lynch did not share details about upcoming projects, such as the highly sought after fourth season of his beloved cult series “Twin Peaks”.
On Sunday, the surrealist filmmaker made an announcement about, well, “an announcement” that would happen on Monday, leaving fans to speculate on new projects, including a collaboration with Netflix yet to be confirmed.
Lynch, 75, appeared on social media on Sunday afternoon with a video update, featuring the independent director wearing sunglasses indoors.
“Good morning”, started broadcasting on YouTube. “It’s January 31st. Last day of January 2021 and it’s Sunday. Here in LA, partly cloudy, a strong breeze is blowing, about 46 degrees Fahrenheit, 8 Celsius. “
Fans expect their daily weather updates, often from their home in tireless and sunny Los Angeles. His other faithful series, “Today’s number is,” shows the director of “Mulholland Drive” removing a random number from a jar and handing it to viewers.
Then, the mysterious Sunday weather forecast continued.
“Not today, but tomorrow I will have an announcement to make. It must be rising to 69 degrees Fahrenheit this afternoon, around 21 Celsius, and it looks like we will have clouds along the way. Everyone have a great day. “
No other noticeable tip was part of the video’s message, but fans were quick to speculate on what new projects Lynch might have up their sleeve.
“It is the fourth season of Twin Peaks or he became friends with a wild cat that lives on his street, I don’t see any middle ground ”, joked a fan in a reply on Twitter, liked 6,500 times. “I would be excited anyway, S4 from Twin Peaks speaks for itself and Lynch would take a lot of mileage from the wildcat in his usual LA weather update videos”
There have also been rumors that Lynch may have another series in progress, dubbed “Wisteria”, with Netflix. Lynch’s prominent fan blog, Welcome to Twin Peaks, is expecting more about this according to the January 31 Weather Report.
On Monday morning, fans were sitting in their seats while waiting for the news of February 1.
It turns out that his work in cinema had nothing to do with it.
“It is February 1, 2021 and it is a Monday. This is a day when I was going to announce that I would take a break from the weather forecast and choosing the day number, ”he said. “But then I read yesterday’s comments – and I realized once again what a big group you are, who subscribe to or visit the David Lynch Theater.”
Lynch went on to praise his followers.
“You are so thoughtful and kind, and I am very grateful that there are people like you in this world. So, let’s continue and I wish, no matter what the weather is like, I wish you all blue skies and golden sun internally, along the way. Everyone have a great day ”, he concluded, greeting the fans.
Devotees of the honorary Oscar winner were also quick to scoff at their own unbridled excitement at the low-key announcement. “Too early for GIF Caco?” asked an early Twitter follower.
