Canadian actor Kenneth Welsh, who starred in more than 200 films and series, including Twin Peaks, died on Thursday May 5 at the age of 80.
Twin Peaks has lost one of its most iconic cast members. This Thursday, May 5, Canadian actor Kenneth Welsh dies aged 80, after a prolific career punctuated by more than 200 films and series. His most famous role: that of the disturbing Windom Earle in the legendary David Lynch series. It was his personal agent who announced it to the magazine Entertainment Weekly.
“Kenneth Welsh died peacefully, at home, surrounded by his family”, states the press release. This great actor has also appeared in several blockbusters, such as Legends of the Fall with Brad Pitt, The Day After Tomorrow with John Cusack or The Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer. Also a great television actor, he has appeared in several cult series such as X-Files, Star Trek and Smallville.
Kenneth Welsh was one of the iconic actors of Twin Peaks
Unforgettable in Twin Peaks, Kenneth Welsh will be remembered for playing a sinister, failure-obsessed serial killer alongside Kyle MacLachlan. In 2018, he also starred in the HBO drama series Lodge 49, in which he played the role of Larry Loomis. Kenneth Welsh will soon appear in an episode of the series The kids in the hall, which will be released on May 13 on Prime Video. A last role that will obviously be worth the detour.
