Twin Peaks star Lara Flynn Boyle looks totally different nowadays as she was spotted taking the bins out in a casual pair of sweatpants.

The veteran actress is best known for her role as Donna Hayward in the TV series, along with roles in Wayne’s World and the Men in Black franchise.

In what constitutes a rare sighting of the star, Lara was spotted carrying a black bin bag over her shoulder as she headed to the outdoor bins, going make-up free as she was papped close to her Los Angeles home.

The star opted for a pair of charcoal sweatpants emblazoned with the words Notre Dame down one leg, and a pair of brown Ugg boots while she completed a few chores around the house on her 53rd birthday.

She arranged her dark brunette tresses into a loose bun at the back of her head, accessorising with a thin gold beaded necklace and a pair of tiny hoop earrings.

It’s the first time Lara has been pictured since February 2022, when she was spotted on a night out at Craig’s restaurant in LA – looking totally glam.

At the time, Lara donned a yellow fringe jacket and blue flared jeans, clutching a brown faux snakeskin bag and arranging her sleek hair into elegant curls that fell around her shoulders.

Prior to that, she was spotted running errands back in May 2021.

Lara also hasn’t taken on any new projects since 2020, when she starred as Grace in Death in Texas, and outside of her work tends to keep her private life very close to her chest.

The star is notably off-grid, and confessed to The Hollywood Reporter back in 2021 that she doesn’t own a computer and has no desire for a smartphone.

She confessed: “Could not tell you how to Google. Couldn’t tell you how to do any of it – nothing!

“I still have an old phone, not the ones that can look up where you are or where you’re going. No thank you!”

The actress also can’t bear to watch herself in films, confessing to the publication that she’s only ever seen around 45% of what she’s acted in.

She explained: “There are many reasons why I don’t watch. One of the silly little reasons is I don’t want to get mad at the editors.

"I don't want to get frustrated. It's there, it's left, and I've got to move on."
