Twin Peaks creators David Lynch and Mark Frost have revealed the official cast listing for Showtime's Twin Peaks revival — all 217 names!
Joining Kyle MacLachlan - who will reprise his role of FBI Agent Dale Cooper - are returning cast members Sherilyn Fenn, who played Audrey Horne; Dana Ashbrook, who played Bobby Briggs; and Sheryl Lee, who played Laura Palmer. See the full cast list below.
Other returning cast members include Mädchen Amick (Shelly Johnson), Phoebe Augustine (Ronette Pulaski), Richard Beymer (Benjamin Horne), Kimmy Robertson (Lucy Moran), Ray Wise (Leland Palmer) and Russ Tamblyn (Dr. Lawrence Jacoby). David Duchovny, who played DEA Agent Denise Bryson, is also set to return.
Catherine Couslon, who played fan-favorite the Log Lady in the original series, was also set to return before her September 2015 passing. Her name is on the list too, so it looks like Lynch and Frost either shot footage with her before her passing or figured out some other way to include the late actress.
Neither Lara Flynn Boyle or Moira Kelly, who both played Donna Hayward (the former in the show and the latter in the movie Fire Walk With Me), are listed - which means Donna has either been replaced or won't play a part in the revival. However, Warren Frost, who played Donna's father Will Hayward, and Alicia Witt, who played Donna's sister Gersten Hayward, will both return. It is also now confirmed that Michael Ontkean won't be back as Sheriff Harry S. Truman, alas. (The character may have been recast with one of the actors listed here, however.)
Heather Graham - whose character Annie was vital to the original series' cliffhanger - is also not present on the list.
Newcomers include Ashley Judd, Michael Cera, Amanda Seyfried, Josh McDermitt, Jessica Szohr, Jane Levy, Eddie Vedder, Jim Belushi, Monica Belluci, Trent Reznorr and more.
Showtime's Twin Peaks just wrapped principal photography, and is expected to debut in 2017.
