I dont want to be to optimistic or conpiracy ish but, based on the rumors from last year, this could be the announcement of the netflix show that was supposed to be coming out. So, not a film, but maybe the first episode or two of the series? We find out tomorrow, right?
Maybe that’s why he’s specifically saying he doesn’t have a “film” coming out at Cannes. It could be the premiere of a show.
Mulholland Dr. was the corpse of a failed pilot so it could be something television-related that was expanded.
That movie scared the shit out of me. Me and two of my friends watched it together and an hour and a half in we all looked at each other and were like "we need to pause this so I can breathe a little bit" lol. Very unsettling
