Separated at Birth-- Celebrities with an odd resemblance

Anderson Cooper has a resemblance to Reinhard Heydrich that’s just eerie enough I demand he explain it to me (on or before our first wedding anniversary).

How many of you saw The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe and thought Cate Blanchett played the White Witch? I was pretty sure Blanchett played the woman who ran the secret island society in The Beach as well, until I realized it was another actress who must clearly be a long-lost sister. The fact that both of those roles were played by Tilda Swinton (a great British actress with virtually identical facial features and a very similar voice) seemed to slip by me. I’ve known about the both of them for awhile, and I still mistake her for Cate Blanchett. They’re so similar that it’s hard to tell them apart at first glance. Swinton has a tendency to play much darker, androgynous and icy characters though, as this funny article points out.

I’ve always thought this was an uncanny resemblance. Are they related in any way?

You don’t by chance mean Percy Daggs III?

Thank you! I said this when I saw the 1st X-Men film, & my friend was like, no.

Kevin Spacey & Currie Graham are challenging Russell Crowe’s claim to Ben McKenzie’s paternity.

I am pleased to see we won’t have to have a Doper cat-fight over him - they both look very similar, but IMO there’s no contest - Skeet’s the pick of the two. Rawr! :smiley:

I first saw him on a ‘supernatural’-themed television series a few years back. The show, Miracles, was actually pretty good (even without taking Skeet-hotness into account) and it’s a shame it got cancelled.

Jerry Mathers

and Bill Richardson

I always confuse Kurt Swayze for Patrick Russel.

Anyone else think that William Dafoe looks like
Maria Shriver ?

[sub] I can’t take credit for discovering this - I saw it on Conan O’Brian[/sub]

Holy crap! You win the thread!

I dunno about separated at birth, but Lee Evans (best known from There’s Something About Mary) looks like the bastard son of John Malkovich.

And then of course Pope Benedict XVI and Emperor Palpatine .

Pre-weight loss Diego Maradona and former SNL cast member Horatio Sanz.

Yasir Arafat and Ringo Star

I think that is him. All the quick images I’ve seen him in have corn rows, but dang, you are good.

I’ve mentioned this one before in other threads.

Darryl Hannah, Aimee Mann and Lori Singer.

When Sandra Bulluck first appeared I thought she was Justine Bateman from “Family Ties” all grown up.

I just thought of another one. . . .

What Not to Wear’s Stacy London and ex SNL member Jimmy Fallon . It’s uncanny, I tell ya.

hehehe

Connor Trinneer and, sometimes, GWB
