This may come as a bit of a surprise to many fans of “Twin Peaks” as Deadline is reporting that Sherilyn Fenn is coming back to the series! Fenn played the mysterious and rebellious Audrey Horne, the daughter of Benjamin Horne, the man who owns The Great Northern Hotel and is considered by many to be the second-richest man in Twin Peaks.
It’s uncertain if Fenn will be reprising her role – I can’t imagine how she wouldn’t be unless they pull a Sheryl Lee and do a Laura/Maddie situation – as Audrey’s fate seemed rather bleak in the series finale.
The original series followed FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper as he investigated the murder of Laura Palmer, an action that set off a string of strange and sometimes unexplainable events. Secrets were exposed, lives were upended, and a cult phenomenon was born, one that still resonates to this day.
Filming is currently happening in Washington with Kyle MacLachlan, Balthazar Getty, Robert Knepper, Amanda Seyfried, and Jennifer Jason Leigh all confirmed to appear.
“Twin Peaks” returns to TV in 2017 on Showtime and continues the story told in the original two seasons, which aired in 1990 and 1991. The third season of the cult murder mystery show is being directed by co-creator David Lynch, who co-wrote the series with co-creator Mark Frost.
