Thread suicide?Wonderful & Strange wrote:I think we should try to keep this thread focused on new actors. Obviously many of the old will be returning, and that's great, but one of the biggest unknowns is who will be new. Old actors can be discussed in other threads, so let's not stray off topic here into a debate about the validity of new vs. old.
This thread should simply be posting ideas for who you think might fit in. If you think no one can or should fit in, don't post.

Re: Which New Actors Would You Cast?
I don't have any specific people in mind, but it would be great to see some familiar faces from films of the 80s and 90s who aren't working so much these days. The original Twin Peaks was a way for great, but underused, actors from prior decades to get a sort of revival in their career later in the game. Seeing that happen again for some more actors in the "grown-up" roles would be great.

Kim Novak seems the only one appropriate off the top of my head.
God, I love this music. Isn't it too dreamy?

Michael Pitt. Only seen him in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, as Tommy Gnosis. But I hear he did a good job in Funny Games, alongside Naomi Watts. He seems to do "dark" pretty well IMO. Also I've just noticed he had a role in "Hannibal" but I haven't seen it~
Re: Which New Actors Would You Cast?
He was fantastic in Hannibal, taking what sounded like an impression of Heath Ledger's Joker to bonkers extremes. However, he is rumored to be quite a handful to work with, which makes me wonder whether he fits the Twin Peaks worldFramed_Angel wrote:Michael Pitt.

Zooey Deschanel as one of Donna's daughters sounds like a good choice.bosguy1981 wrote:I love this Winsol review and don't have any specific people in mind, but it would be great to see some familiar faces from films of the 80s and 90s who aren't working so much these days.

Re: Which New Actors Would You Cast?
When I see Helen George, I always think that she would fit in quite well. She does have a slight Heather Graham look about her, so perhaps a relative of Annie's/Norma's? She'd need to put on an accent though, unless the character is English.
Re: Which New Actors Would You Cast?
I'd probably cast:
Sophie Lowe (as the daughter of someone who got pregnant on the show)
Jodelle Ferland
Madison McLaughlin (as the daughter of someone who gets what she wants)
Christopher Abbott (as a woodcutter/social outcast who lives with his weird father/grandfather/step father)
Gene Jones (as the weird father/grandfather/step father)
I've got a lot of suggestions, but I thought I'd begin with those who seem too apparent.
I'm new to the forum, by the way. Seems great so far!
