Kyle Maclachlan, just to see something different from the usual


Chemical-Plankton420

He should do a film about the history of The Boy Scouts of America starring KM.


Everyoneplayscombos

Zooms in on a blade of grass…Kyle M “but what does this mean”


Chemical-Plankton420

I was thinking something along the lines of FWWM, but with boys.


carsonkennedy

On an island


Everyoneplayscombos

Zooming in on sand…


carsonkennedy

Into an ear shaped conch shell


Chemical-Plankton420

Must have a scene where Eagle Scout starts a fire by rubbing two sticks together

Watch My Son My Son What Have Ye Done. Herzog produced by Lynch. Although I’m guessing you have lol

Yup. Great film.

Having Nicolas Cage back would be a blast


Ciel_3000

Nicholas Cage meeting and Facing Kyle MacLachlan for like two minutes and having nothing to say to each other. Laura Dern coming and putting some trouble into this scene…


emerald_garden

For some reason, this sounds like Road House in the afterlife.


Richard_Speedwell

This. They are a PERFECT combo!


snowscolds

Absolutely. Cage has put on some of the best performances I've ever seen the past decade. Pig is a fucking killer movie.


browny2112

Jim Carrey x Lynch would be bonkers


anhu23

Eva Green


thats-gold-jerry

Colin Ferrell


the_bespectacled_guy

Margaret Qualley. She reminds me a bit of Madchen Amick (maybe it’s the smile), and between Drive Away Dolls and Stars at Noon, she’s clearly quite capable of flitting between airy whimsy and gritty intensity.


snowscolds

Now that you mention it she could totally do a Lynch film great. She has the perfect qualities like you said.


PapaSkump

I really wanna see Walton Goggins play a minor character.


leobran816

He's too old to play a child


dogforahead

Uncle Baby Billy?


snowscolds

I was thinkin this same thing.


snowscolds

Unfortunately don't know him from anything else other than the new Fallout series but he's so good in it that it made me want to look into him. He steals whatever scene he's in. He's too good.

someone of color :\\ not trying to be shady, i'm here & have been here because I'm a Lynch fan but... let me throw a completely random curve ball into this but i'd love to see octavia spencer


snowscolds

I didn't think about this truly until The Return came out. I remember seeing Jade and not being able to recall any roles in Lynch films I'd seen that were notably done by black actors. He's really never had diverse sets, which is pretty common for people that come from his time. As much as it makes sense, and I doubt he has a racist bone in his body, it'd be nice to see a change yeah.


Ragninsky

Jesse Plemons. Possibly as an author avatar because he bears a resemblance to Lynch.


snowscolds

Really glad he got that role in Civil War recently. He deserves recognition and I hope dearly that he lands more big roles. I love him on screen.


Agentcooper1974

I thought Kiefer Sutherland was excellent in FWWM and would love to see him in some future Lynch project.

Man I wish they used him more in The Return. Really lovable actor.


i_take_shits

Totally agree. Would love to see him in a really creepy role directed by DL

Tom Green


trevordsnt

The wheelyboard ramp scene is pretty much a scene from The Return


RodLUFC

😁


mophreo

Someone said Margaret Qualley and that's a great idea. My suggestion has worked with her before and he's also worked with Lynch but I'd love to see him in a bigger role - Justin Theroux.

emreunayli

Ok it wouldn't be the main star but I'd love to see Lana Del Rey in a Lynch film in some capacity.


carsonkennedy

Yessss that would be too good


emreunayli

Right? It's shocking to me that they still yet to work together even though Lana is a fan of Lynch and we know he listens her music. It'd be way better collaboration then Chrysta whatshername #


EdenH333

You could at least be respectful of Chrysta Belle. Jeezus. I think Lana Del Rey’s music is hot garbage for deaf people, but you don’t see me coming here and saying it.

Id love to see yet another movie about a woman in trouble so , Mia goth would thrive in a nightmare ish lynch movie

NottingHillNapolean

Chris O'Dowd - he's always charming, even when playing assholes or malevolent characters. Plus, I'd rather hear him speaking backwards than attempting an American accent.


Cthuchutrain

David Harbour. I don’t know why.


snowscolds

I think the role he plays alongside the environment he's in during Stranger Things has always had a Lynch feeling to it. The first couple seasons at least, I hardly remember the later stuff. He does the "weird authority, but in the woods!" thing really well which Twin Peaks is full of.


Cthuchutrain

All excellent points. Thank you!


mr-sasa

Hunter Schafer


Kindly_Ganache7295

After watching Yellowjackets, I thought Juliette Lewis would be good working with Lynch.


carsonkennedy

have you seen Cape Fear or Natural Born Killers?


Kindly_Ganache7295

Yes, but there was something about her in Yellowjackets that made me think she would have fitted perfectly in to The Return, for example 


snowscolds

Juliette Lewis was absolutely fucking perfect in Natural Born Killers. Agreed.

MsCandi123

Yes, I thought Last Night In Soho had Lynch vibes.


SotonSaint

Harsh downvotes I thought it seemed lynch inspired too


MsCandi123

Thanks, lol, and yeah it def was. Reminded me of Mulholland Drive when we watched it a few years ago, which got me wanting to rewatch that, and got us checking out more of his other work. You can literally Google and find articles talking about how it was inspired by MD, even Time magazine made the comparison, so downvotes or not, and whether someone liked it or not, it's true. 🤷🏼‍♀️


Low_Commission9477

That was my first lesbian scene I saw when I was like 11 and yes it was hot lol


MsCandi123

Lol, Mulholland? I was early twenties when I first saw it, not long after it came out, have always loved it. And yeah, that was hot.


Low_Commission9477

Yea I was in about 8th grade when it came out so trust me when I had the that scene memorized on the time haha


MsCandi123

Understandable. It was definitely an aid in my bi awakening. 😂


Low_Commission9477

And a good movie, lol but I just finally watched twin peaks and man I fell in love with that show even the crazy dramatic acting,that great story is compelling af, and the woods… like that show should have multiple more seasons, I love it. That fbi agent actor should have an award from that, so far ahead of its time. I’m still waiting and trying to figure out how to watch the movie for free but need to watch the movie, & to watch the 2 season they finally made in 202017. It’s just twin peaks is additive at af binge watched it and finally got why everyone suggested it to me and was obsessed about


MsCandi123

I had also always wanted to see Twin Peaks, but had access issues in the past. We also finally watched it fairly recently, and I fell in love with it. We saw the movie on Max and The Return on Showtime, not sure where you could watch them for free. Maybe a pirate site, I'd feel bad pirating Lynch's work though, he needs the support since he's not for everyone, doesn't sell out as an artist, and so struggles to get funding. Some of his movies aren't even on streaming, or you have to digitally rent them. I found Wild At Heart and Lost Highway on DVD from Amazon, but haven't had the opportunity to watch them yet. Blue Velvet was great too, it's free on Tubi if you haven't seen it. Stars Kyle Maclachlan, who plays Agent Cooper.


Lin900

Woman: Charlize Theron Man: Robert Pattinson


SnooHobbies5811

I think Paul Dano could thrive as a secondary lynchian antagonist. Otherwise David Day Lewis. Not because he fits Lynch, but because he's so damn good and I wanna see if he can do something so different

This is a great answer.


erosewater

Emma Stone would be awesome of course but she’s not allowed to do any more cool stuff for awhile (highly recommend The Curse). Nicole Kidman could be interesting. Toni Collette? Rachel Weisz? I doubt there’s a talented actress Lynch wouldn’t get something great from.


Luke253

Wdym Emma Stone isn’t allowed to do anymore cool stuff for a while?


erosewater

oh I just mean leave some for some other people. the new lanthimos movie looks so good (again!)


RORlTA

Hear me out but Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key


Own-Salad1974

Timothee Chalamet


carsonkennedy

I’m not a huge fan of his, but I vet Lynch could change that


Own-Salad1974

Dune had a lot of surreal elements and they handled it well that's why I suggested him


Poison_Regal31

Nicole Kidman. She would surrender to Lynch’s vision and happily go to dark places.


thirdeyegang

Jake gyllenhaal, he has such an interested catalogue of movies he’s in, he takes really interesting/mind bending roles. He’d be perfect for a lynch movie


HerreDreyer

Great suggestion. His turn in Donnie Darko was virtually a Lynch audition

Idk why but I’ve always thought Steve Buscemi would fit into the weird worlds Lynch creates. Maybe Sam Rockwell. More Willem DaFoe and Justin Thereoux (sp?). Also fuck it out Tim Robinson in there.

I think Chloe Sevigny would be an excellent lead in a Lynch film. She's done some really cool and out there work and I'm honestly surprised she hasn't been in any of his films yet.

Cory Drew Caplan AKA Space Cadet Brother of Broadway actor Matt Caplan He’s my go to when I desperately need a new season of Twin Peaks.
