Lookalike Actors

I always thought George Clooney and Joshua Jackson could’ve made a great father-son team…

I was in my thirties before I realized that Jeff Bridges and Kurt Russell were, in fact, two separate people.

I can never tell Lee Marvin and James Coburn apart.

I wish they’d do a movie with Jody Foster.

Me too.

I would have gone with Monica Potter, Lauren Holly and Hilary Duff.

Before she became a super-mega-über-moviestar I kept confusing Angelina Jolie with Ashley Judd.

Same thing originally with Scarlett Johansen and Laurie Prepon (redheaded hottie from That 70s Show).

True dat. Others might prefer the Arnold S. (in his prime) and Charleton H. (also in his prime) matchup.

When I see Missy Peregrym, or any of the others, I see an attractive woman, but nothing out of the ordinary. My wife says it’s because I went to a high school full of beautiful women. I disagree, saying it’s our daughters, who are merely pretty, went to a high school where they seem to send scouts to sign future stars for the WB’s teen angst shows, but just the girls. The guys are, at best, average. So unimpressive that one daughter latched onto a relatively cute guy when he was a freshman and she was a junior. It’s Moscow Rules for dating: you grab what you can when you see it because you never know when you will see it again.

I think Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman look an awful lot alike. Seeing that Keira played Natalie’s double in one of those Star Wars prequels, I suspect others agree with me. I’m still waiting to get in a threesome with those two.

Back in the day, I had a lot of trouble telling Joey Lauren Adams apart from Renee Zellweger.

This was pointed out in a similar thread a few years ago. I thought no way, Joey Lauren Adams is hot, Renee, not so much. Then I went and looked at pics and by damn, they *do *look a lot alike!

Blasphemy!!!11

Joey is sweet and cute, Smellvinegar is an asshole* and not attractive.

*Just my opinion. No cite.

I was thinking that Nick Nolte and Anthony Heald resembled each other to a great degree.

Anthony Heald played the part of ship owner Simon Canton in the movie Deep Rising .

Johnny Depp and Skeet Ulrich

Should have thought of this right away:

Molly Parker.

Julianne Nicholson (especially in the movie Tully).

And some great casting as sisters in Ever After:

Drew Barrymore

and

Melanie Lynsky.

(Though, come to think of it, they were stepsisters.)

Add Helena Bonham Carter and you’ll have a pretty convincing trio of sisters.

On several occasions while watching a movie with Geoffrey Rush, I find myself wondering what James Woods was doing in it (especially when Rush is playing an American).

Elizabeth Rohm and Julia Styles.

Ricky Gervais and Eddie Izzard

I almost killed that other thread with this post… let’s see if it happens again!

I’ll step in to save the day with Jerry Doyle and Bruce Willis.

Doyle noted it too when Willis was given an award at some ceremony or another (for the Fifth Element probably).
