Amanda Seyfried is Coop and Annie's daughter in the revival of 'Twin Peaks'?
Showtime's "Twin Peaks" revival has cast blonde beauty Amanda Seyfried in a "mysterious role" in the sequel to the hit 1990s crime-drama series "Twin Peaks." Apparently, Amanda Seyfried has a major role, almost pivotal in this revival. It has also been confirmed that she will appear in multiple episodes. This might well be Amanda Seyfried's biggest TV outing.
Amanda Seyfried is no stranger to TV Shows. She has appeared on TV shows like "Veronica Mars," "Wildfire," "All My Children" and "As the World Turns." Her last big TV show was "Big Love" in 2011. She has - at present - become one of Hollywood's biggest stars with films like "Mean Girls," "Les Miserables" and "Ted 2."
Speculations are on as to what her character will be in the revival of "Twin Peaks." Could she be Coop and Annie's daughter? In the hit series, Coop and Annie were lovers. Annie was played by Heather Graham, who had blonde hair and somewhat similar facial characteristics like Amanda's. So it would follow that she might be their daughter. The other female characters of Lucy, Shelly, Norma and even Laura had blonde highlights in their hair. But since the role is pivotal and quite major, it leads to speculations that she might return as Coop and Annie's daughter.
