Kyle MacLachlan paid tribute to frequent collaborator David Lynch on Thursday, saying that he owes his "entire career" to the late director.

When a director and an actor develop an ongoing creative partnership, a certain kind of magic happens, and this was certainly the case with actors Kyle MacLachlan and Laura Dern and director David Lynch.

Kyle MacLachlan, who was David Lynch ‘s FBI agent Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks, Paul Atreides from Dune and Jeffrey Beaumont from Blue Velvet, took to social media Thursday to express his sorrow over the death of the filmmaker who made him a leading man across TV and film.
