Ted Sarandos Recalls David Lynch’s Unrealized Netflix Limited Series: ‘We Were All In’
Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos says that David Lynch had been working on a limited series for the streamer, but it went unrealized due to COVID.
Netflix co-CEO Sarandos shared a tribute on Instagram to honor one of his “all time favorite filmmakers” and noted that Lynch had been in contact with the streamer to direct a limited series. The production went unrealized due to complications caused by the COVID pandemic and, later, “health uncertainties.” In 2024, Lynch publicly disclosed that he had been diagnosed with emphysema after a lifetime of smoking, and that any future directing would have to be done remotely. In November 2020, an issue of Production Weekly (not a publication with listings that are entirely accurate to coming film shoots) detailed a Lynch limited series called “Wisteria.” That title was later revealed to be a code name given to the project by Netflix.
