Twin Peaks star Sherilyn Fenn has claimed that the revived third season of the show has got a doubled 18-episode order.
According to Collider, the actress revealed the news during an appearance at the Seattle Crypticon during a Q&A with co-star Sheryl Lee.
The Showtime revival of the classic series has been through a number of ups and downs in the past few months, including director and creator David Lynch dropping out of the project stating that he was not offered enough money to do the script "the way it needed to be done".
However, Lynch re-confirmed his involvement earlier this month.
Fenn said: "I’m so happy we’re back on…and 18 episodes now, even. I’m pretty sure that’s what happened with the hiccup was that David said that he saw Twin Peaks, but the universe and the strings go all over the place in the world, it’s not just Twin Peaks. I think when he did the nine, he realized he needed nine more to complete it."
When asked by a fan if the show would be shooting in original locations such as the RR Diner, Fenn answered: "We’re shooting there. 100%…[David’s] already come here. They’re re-doing the RR diner to look exactly like it did in the show, and then the owners of the diner are going to keep it that way."
