David Lynch’s ‘Twin Peaks‘ revival on Showtime just added a couple of big names as Naomi Watts (‘Insurgent’,‘Birdman‘) and Tom Sizemore (‘Saving Private Ryan’,’Night of the Living Dead: Darkest Dawn’) have officially joined the cast! They’ll be joining Kyle MacLachlan reprising his role as Agent Dale Cooper and a ton of new faces including Laura Dern, Peter Scarsgaard, Amanda Seyfried, and Balthazar Getty.
Lynch is really pulling in the talent for the series and the fact that it was delayed until 2017 makes it that much more difficult to see more cast announcements. Not only has the series brought some great actors to the table, but many of them have worked with Lynch on films in the past. Watts, in fact, was the key actor in ‘Mulholland Drive.’
Sadly there is no word as to who these two will be playing on the revival as of yet.
