Why Hollywood Won't Cast Lara Flynn Boyle Anymore
Aug 22 2020
Lara Flynn Boyle became a '90s "It Girl" following the original run of Twin Peaks. She appeared to have a long and fruitful career ahead of her, but in recent years, she's become nearly unrecognizable in more ways than one. Here's why Hollywood won't cast Lara Flynn Boyle anymore.

Everyone deserves love and affection, even big-time Hollywood actors. However, when pursuing relationships gets in the way of work and makes production more difficult for the people putting it all together, word can easily spread around Hollywood that they're difficult to work with. This might just be the situation that played out for Lara Flynn Boyle.

During the filming of her first major project, the 1990-91 TV series Twin Peaks, Boyle dated her co-star, Kyle MacLachlan, whose on-screen romantic interest was Sherilyn Fenn. Speaking about the resulting on-set feud to the AV Club in 2014, Fenn said -

"Lara was dating Kyle, and she was mad that my character was getting more attention. So then Kyle started saying that his character shouldn't be with my character because it doesn't look good, 'cause I'm too young."

In order to appease MacLachlan and, by extension, Boyle, Twin Peaks writers overhauled the show's creative and narrative trajectory, splitting up MacLachlan and Fenn's characters and pairing them up with new love interests portrayed by Heather Graham and Billy Zane.
