Flashback: David Lynch Makes Final On-Screen Appearance With Unforgettable ‘Fabelmans’ Cameo

While David Lynch's mark on cinema came from the director’s chair, his final big-screen contribution was an unforgettable cameo in 'The Fabelmans.'

While the late David Lynch made an inimitable and indelible mark on cinema from the director’s chair, his final big-screen contribution came in front of the camera with an unforgettable cameo in The Fabelmans. While best known for his visionary work behind the camera with films like Blue Velvet and Mulholland Dr., Lynch also had an always-magnetic on-screen presence, even if he was just reading weather reports on social media. Most notably, he played FBI bureau chief Gordon Cole in his own Twin Peaks — which allowed him to share the screen with David Bowie — and co-starred in the 2017 film Lucky, where he appeared alongside his friend and sometime collaborator Harry Dean Stanton.
