Amanda Seyfried is returning to television on Showtime's "Twin Peaks" revival. The "Veronica Mars" alum has landed a major role on the continuation of the 1990s series, but details of her characters are still kept under wraps, AceShowbiz reveals.

Per TVLine which first reported the news, the "Ted 2" star would be playing a pivotal new character. She is reportedly booked for multiple episodes. It marks her biggest TV gig since she appeared in 44 episodes of "Big Love".

The new "Twin Peaks" series will consist of 18 episodes which all are written by co-creators David Lynch and Mark Frost. Lynch is also directing all episodes. Filming is currently underway in Washington state with original cast members Kyle MacLachlan, Sheryl Lee, Dana Ashbook and Sherilyn Fenn returning to reprise their roles.

The revival is set in the present day and is promised to "continue the lore of the original series." No premiere date is announced for the new series yet.

Seyfried was a series regular on "As the World Turns" from 1999 until 2001. She had a recurring role as Lilly Kane on "Veronica Mars" and has lent her voice to "American Dad!" and "Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey". In big screen, she recently starred in "While We're Young" and "Ted 2", and will next be seen in "Pan".
