According to Deadline, the new series will be set in the present day, two decades after the events of the original, but is intended to continue all the lore and story. Lynch and Frost are hard at work on the scripts, with nine episodes planned for the first run, all directed by Lynch.
The original series followed the inhabitants of a quaint town in Washington State who were stunned after young Laura Palmer is shockingly murdered. The town’s sheriff welcomed the help of FBI Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan), who arrived to investigate the case by not always conventional means. As Cooper conducted his search for Laura’s killer, the town’s secrets were gradually uncovered. A prequel feature film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, followed in 1992.
Better fire up that percolator and find my black suit :-) #Twinpeaks

There are no details yet on which of the original cast might return - and the tweet above has us crossing our fingers that MacLachlan comes back for sure - but the show’s new home on cable means it will be able to indulge in even more weirdness than was possible on US network back in the 1990s. This could be utterly bonkers… And potentially brilliant.
