May 21st and we’re all on the first bus to Twin Peaks. Again.
Showtime has released a new promo for the show starring Big Ed Hurley (Everett McGill), Carl Rodd (Harry Dean Stanton), Sarah Palmer (Grace Zabriskie), Deputy Andy Brennan (Harry Goaz), Deputy Tommy “Hawk” Hill (Michael Horse), and, of course, FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan).
The 18-hour limited event series will debut with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, May 21 at 9PM ET/PT, but the first two episodes will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival where David Lynch is arguably royalty having served as jury president in 2002 and won the Palme d’Or for 1990’s Wild at Heart and best director for 2001’s Mulholland Dr. (he tied with the Coen Brothers’ The Man Who Wasn’t There).
The show, which originally aired between 1990-91, returns after a 16 year hiatus.
It will premiere on 21 May at the same time on Showtime in the US and Sky Atlantic in the UK.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
