Actors/actresses you think are the same person

My contribution: Frances O’Connor, who looks like a young Barbara Hershey.

Here is BigGirl’s ealier thread

I’d like to add Malcolm McDowell and Michael York allways confuse me, despite having very different hair.

Carmine Giovinazzo http://members.aol.com/remiped/csiny-carmine02.jpg

Greg Kinnear http://www.nndb.com/people/137/000023068/kinnear-sized.jpg

They could be twins.

Exactly.

I agree with Joey Lauren Adams/Renee Zellwegger and Charles Durning/Brian Dennehy (I actually wrote “Brian Durning” there!)

Also –

Brian Blessed and John Rhys-Davies

Allison Janney and Ileana Douglas

Vicki Lewis and Kathy Griffin

Dennis Quaid and Jeff Bridges

Stockard Channing and Elizabeth Perkins (despite the fact that I recently saw them together in the same movie)

Matt Damon and Brad Pitt

Fran Drescher and Maggie Wheeler

Laura Linney and Julianne Moore

Laura Linney and Helen Hunt

Laura Linney and Heather Graham

I always get David Keith and Keith David confused when trying to remember the actor’s name.

And Ewen McGreggor looks a lot like a young Malcom McDowell(or is it Roddy McDowell :eek: :smiley: )

Michael Madsen and Tom Sizemore.

I thought of another pair…

Fred Thompson and Joe Don Baker.

I confuse Bill Pullman and Jeff Daniels.

And since I’m really OLD, there were 3 character actors (way back when) who were very similar-looking (in my opinion) Skip Homeier, Keith Andes and Richard Webb. Any fans of the original “Star Trek” series will know them because they made at least one episode each. (Skip Homeier made two).

And also from those days of yesteryear, James Whitmore looked a lot like Spencer Tracy don’t you thnk?

Oddly enough, it was exactly this combination I was thinking of when I said Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton. It’s Pullman and Daniels that I can never keep straight in my mind…

And I was thinking that the young Helen looked liked the young Jodie Foster.

But yes first time I saw Leelee I thought I was watching an old movies from the 80’s with Helen.

Bill Paxton? Jeff Daniels? Bill Pullman?

You guys haven’t looked at the big picture.

Take a look at Fametracker’s Battle of the Generic Gentlemen: Brad Johnson vs. Bill Campbell vs. Bill Pullman vs. Jeff Daniels vs. Bill Paxton

David Keith & Brad Davis (who’s now deceased)

Tom Bosley and David Doyle . It goes beyond mere appearances. Charlie’s Angels fans will know what I mean.

I cannot tell the difference between Sarah Jessica Parker and Roger Daltrey.

Years ago I confused Nicholas Cage with Kevin Costner

Vince Vaughn and Vincent D’Onofrio. I got totally confused when they were both in “The Cell.”

Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek.
Meg Ryan and Melanie Griffith.

Good one. What is it about people named Doyle?

Till about six months ago, I sometimes confused Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau. “You know - the guy from Swingers!” :rolleyes:
