David Lynch’s “Unrecorded Night” Project Cancelled by Netflix Due to Pandemic: What Happened?

David Lynch fans have been eagerly awaiting his return to the director’s chair since the groundbreaking “Twin Peaks: The Return” aired seven years ago. However, it seems that Lynch’s latest project, “Wisteria/Unrecorded Night,” was unfortunately scrapped due to the pandemic.

According to Lynch’s producing partner Sabrina Sutherland, “Unrecorded Night” was a non-Twin Peaks series that was set to shoot at Netflix before the pandemic hit. The project was in pre-production and ready to go, but Netflix ultimately decided to cancel it. Despite this setback, Sutherland remains hopeful that the project will eventually see the light of day.

Fans were excited by the rumors surrounding “Wisteria/Unrecorded Night,” which hinted at a collaboration between Lynch and Netflix. The project was said to have a budget of $85 million and was rumored to be a mini-series consisting of hour-long episodes or movies.

While Lynch has been keeping a low profile since the project was scrapped, Sutherland reassures fans that he is in good health and still has an interest in creating more film work. In the meantime, Lynch has been focusing on his music and painting.

It’s a disappointing turn of events for Lynch and his fans, but with the promise of a potential revival of “Unrecorded Night,” there may still be hope for another Lynch masterpiece in the future.
