David Bowie was asked to make a cameo appearance as FBI Agent Phillip Jeffries , his character from '' Twin Peaks : Fire Walk with Me '' . As Bowie 's health was declining , his lawyer told Lynch that he was unavailable . Before his death in January 2016 , Bowie gave the production permission to reuse old footage featuring him , but he was unhappy with the accent he had used in the film , and requested that he be dubbed over by an authentic Louisiana actor , leading to the casting of Nathan Frizzell as Jeffries 's voice . In January and February 2017 , respectively , cast members Miguel Ferrer and Warren Frost died , but both appear in the new season . Harry Dean Stanton , who reprised his role as Carl Rodd , died in September 2017 , less than two weeks after the last episode of the season aired
