David Lynch fans are going nuts as rumors have it that a ‘secret’ movie is due out next month

David Lynch fans have said they are “losing their minds” over rumors the filmmaker has been secretly making a project that will debut this year.

Since then, the acclaimed director has not made a feature film domestic empire back in 2006, although he directed all 18 episodes Twin Peaks: The Return in 2017, as well as a series of short films.

A report in diversity claims Lynch’s next project is due to debut at the Cannes Film Festival this year, citing “two well-informed sources”.

According to the article, the project will take the form of a feature film and will star Laura Dern in an unspecified role alongside other “Lynch regulars.”

Fans shared their excitement at the prospect on social media, with one fan writing, “I’m losing my mind.”

“This is the best news I’ve ever heard,” wrote another person.

“OH YEAH NEW DAVID LYNCH FILM,” wrote another. “This has easily become the film I’m most looking forward to this year.”

More details about the rumored project are yet to come. The Cannes line-up is set to be officially announced later this week.

This year’s Cannes Film Festival will take place from May 17th to May 28th, 2022.
