I found this in my AM paper today (STL Post-Dispatch).
BIGGER BUDGET SET FOR 'PEAKS' MOVIE
  Production of a "Twin Peaks" theatrical film will begin in August, says
co-excutive producer Mark Frost.  The movie, fiananced through foreign
syndication of the series, will have a bigger budget than the weekly episodes
and will shoot more on location in the Pacific Northwest, he said late last
week, adding "If the movie works, I suppose there's an opportunity to do
one every couple of years, like 'Star Trek,' if that's what we want to do."
  While co-creator David Lynch and "Peaks" head writer Bob Engels have been 
working up the movie script, Frost has been in New Orleans directing his
first theatrical feature, "Storyville," a political drama.  In addition,
Frost and Lynch have a six-episode commitment from ABC for "On The Air," a
sitcom about an early-1950's live-TV show, that will go into production
in early fall.



So the news is finally out and it is good.  I can't wait for the movie
to come out (this should give us plenty to talk about now).  
I also believe that Miguel Ferrer (Albert) will be the star of "On The 
Air."
