"Wait, it's a different guy?" moments

I think James Coburn is the result of merging Lee Marvin with Steve McQueen.

I’ve always thought Steve McQueen was the secret love child of Marvin and Coburn.

I think we can safely conclude that Coburn/Lee should be FTW, here, myself included

That walrus looks lke a few; whenever I have to look at Kansas City Chiefs coach Mike Reid, ole Will immediately comes to mind.

Still getting my James Franciscuses and Tony Franciosas mixed up. :man_facepalming: :man_facepalming: :man_facepalming:

Adam Kinzinger and sports commentator and former TSN sidekick of dingbat Jay Onrait, Dan O’Toole

They appeared together in an episode of the 1950s TV series “M Squad.”

See! Twins they are! (great find, @kenobi_65!)

I recall watching a documentary on Spaghetti Westerns and some dude mentioned that the only reason Terrence Hill had a star career in movies is because some producer thought he looked like Franco Nero. Indeed, from IMDB: “Part of the reason he (Hill) was cast in the westerns was because he looked just like another actor who made hit westerns, Franco Nero. When Nero was not available to do a western, Italian producers cast Hill. Hill then went on to make a name for himself as a western star.”

Perhaps you mean Andy Reid? Who is easily confused for Mike Holmgren.

I remember that Lee Marvin was sued in the landmark “palimony” case. Michelle Triola had changed her name legally to Michelle Triola Marvin. She was represented by star attorney Marvin Mitchelson.

After the case, the National Lampoon ran a fake news article announcing that she was suing Mitchelson, claiming that he had become famous by representing her.

And that she would henceforth go by the name Michelle Triola Marvin Mitchelson.

Bill Paxton

Bill Pullman

Ah yes :man_facepalming:, (:unamused:Really - I’m the best with names) thanks, for the trifecta, somewhat lesser 'stache bedamned.
(heh, at least not as ugly as Paul Holmgren)

Ted Cassidy and Richard Kiel, for maybe a millisecond, say.

LInk to the picture was broken, so here’s the article I found it in:

Total urban legend.
It was Ernie Coombs.

In Season 6 of Criminal Minds they got rid of actress A.J. Cook and her character JJ. They brought in actress Rachel Nichols as Agent Seavers as a replacement. I missed all that and spent way longer than I should have wondering why JJ changed her name to Ashley Seavers.

First is Rachel Nichols; second is AJ Cook

TIL they are in fact different guys :slight_smile:

For the last time, I’m not Max Von Sydow

(Not posting this as if Christopher Plummer really wrote it)

Right - Plummer was the guy from Skyrim.

Anyway, Elizabeth Banks:

Rachel McAdams:

No, You’re Thinking of David Doyle

Oh yeah!!! I had to rewatch The Departed because I couldn’t keep Damon and DiCaprio straight.

Uncle Leo

Aleksandr Lukashenko

Thirty minutes ago I knew almost nothing about these people, but the story sounded interesting so I visited WikiP and IMDB. Does “dental practice” just mean “left MGM for Universal and eventually became a minor performer”? If so, darn it! I was hoping to read about a singing dentist.
