David Lynch's Unproduced Netflix Series Revealed

Ted Sarandos, CEO of Netflix, paid tribute to the late filmmaker David Lynch, revealing that Lynch was working on an ambitious limited series for Netflix before his death at age 78. The project, believed to be titled 'Unrecorded Night' or codenamed 'Wisteria,' faced delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Lynch's health issues, eventually remaining unproduced. Sarandos fondly recalled his initial connection with Lynch during Netflix's early days, which led to a deal to distribute 'Eraserhead' on DVD. Despite the project's cancellation, Sarandos expressed admiration for Lynch's visionary and unapologetic genius, highlighting Lynch's impact on the industry and his artistic legacy. The series was to include 13 episodes with a significant budget, and Lynch's frequent collaborator, cinematographer Peter Deming, was involved. The announcement has prompted widespread tributes from Lynch's admirers, with many lamenting the loss of what could have been his final creative endeavor.
