Accidental Stunt Casting? (Kolchak)

I’m watching Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Werewolfepisode. The woman of the week is played by minor character actress Nina Talbot, best known from Hogan’s Heroes as Marya the Russian Spy. I recognized, got her name and laughed that wow, they casted the daughter of the Wolf man, but of course Larry Talbot was the name of the character and not the actor. (The great Lon Chaney Jr.)

Know of any other accidental stunt castings.

In Inception, Marion Cotillard plays Mal, the deceased wife of Leonardo DiCaprio’s character who continues to haunt his dreams. Previously, Cotillard won an Oscar playing Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose.

The “trigger” song in Inception to wake-up is "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” by Edith Piaf.
