"My family, my friend, I've criss-crossed this great land of ours countless times. I hold the map of it here, in my heart, next to the joyful memories of the carefree days I spent, as a young boy, here in your beautiful town of Twin Peaks."―Wally Brando[src]
Wally Brando was the son of Andy and Lucy Brennan who was born the same day as Marlon Brando.
Biography[]
Wally Brando was born in Twin Peaks, Washington to Andy and Lucy Brennan on the same day as Marlon Brando, sometime after FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper left the town.[1]
At 24,[1] after years of travel, he returned to his hometown to pay his respects to his ill godfather, Sheriff Harry S. Truman. He also gave his parents his blessing to turn his childhood room into a study. When his mother asked him about his travels, Wally made a speech, speaking in a Marlon Brando impression. His parents listened to him with glee, but Sheriff Frank Truman was bewildered.[2]
According to Mark Frost, on an unspecified date, Dick Tremayne once tried to get in touch with Wally, but Wally ignored Dick.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Wally Brando was portrayed by actor Michael Cera. His scene was filmed very late at night on September 26, 2015. The character's costume is based upon Marlon Brando's in The Wild One.
It is assumed that Wally is the result of Lucy's pregnancy by either Andy Brennan or Dick Tremayne, first revealed in "Episode 7." Assuming the third season took place in 2016, as established by Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier, 24-year-old Wally would have been born in 1992. However, 1992 was more than 3 years after Lucy discovered her pregnancy. Additionally, Andy says Wally shares his birthday with Marlon Brando, which was April 3. As Lucy was still in the early stages of pregnancy in late March, it is unlikely that Wally could have been born on this date.
