Lynch's family announced his death at 78 via his official Facebook page on Thursday, Jan. 16. Though they did not confirm exactly when or how he died, the director was left housebound after being diagnosed with emphysema in 2024, which he attributed to "smoking for so long."
“It would be very bad for me to get sick, even with a cold,” he told Sight & Sound at the time.
Actor Kyle MacLachlan also took to social media to mourn the filmmaker, crediting him for having “plucked [him] out of obscurity” in the '80s.
“He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize,” he wrote in his lengthy tribute. “I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision.”
