'Twin Peaks' 2016 Return: Cooper, Log Lady, The Giant, Man From Another Place Among Reported Characters Returning [VIDEO]
There may be exciting news on the Twin Peaks casting front based on the slew of cast members featured on IMDb for the show's 2016 reboot.
10 Most Memorable Moments From Twin Peaks
While no cast members have officially been announced for the upcoming Twin Peaks revival, IMDb has added many of the show's regular cast members to its Series Cast list. Intriguingly, many of them are guest stars, suggesting that creators David Lynch and Mark Frost might just be bringing back as many cast members from the original series as possible.
Kyle MacLachlan, who played Special Agent Dale Cooper on the series, is listed as appearing in one episode of the 2016 season, as is Michael Horse, who played Deputy Tommy "Hawk" Hill. It is unclear if this means they have officially signed on to appear in the first episode or if it means they are only appearing in one episode of the revival.

Other cast members set to appear according to IMDb are Michael J. Anderson (The Man From Another Place), Phoebe Augustine (Ronette Pulaski), Robert Bauer (Johnny Horne), Ian Buchanan (Dick Tremayne), Catherine E. Coulson (The Log Lady), Jan D'Arcy (Sylvia Horne), Eric Da Re (Leo Johnson), Miguel Ferrer (FBI Agent Albert Rosenfield), Harry Goaz (Deputy Andy Brennan), Gary Hershberger (Mike Nelson), Robyn Lively (Lana Budding Milford), Everett McGill (Big Ed Hurley), Wendy Robie (Nadine), Charlotte Stewart (Betty Briggs), Al Strobel (Phillip Michael Gerard) and Garel Struycken (The Giant).
Each of the above cast members are listed as appearing in "unknown episodes" of the revival series.
IMDb is not always exactly correct about cast information so Twin Peaks fans should take this as a grain of salt, but the specificity of these actors suggests that there may be some truth to it.
With this, it is also expected that cast members will be announced as returning to the series in the weeks or months to come as pre-production continues.
Twin Peaks returns to television in 2016 on Showtime, though the network has not yet announced a specific premiere date beyond the year.
