Famous people doppelgängers … I’ll start!

I was watching The Sound of Music with DC yesterday, and Captain Von Trapp caught my attention and distracted me he’s very good looking

In my defence, it’s the first time I’ve seen the film the whole way through, so have only just noticed.

Anyway, it got me thinking that Captain VT (aka Christopher Plummer) looks kind of similar to Daniel Craig. Anyone with me?

And which other celeb doppelgangers have you come across?

@EmmaGrundyForPM

I quite often muddle up Matt Damon and Leonardo Di Caprio.

I've also managed to watch a film starring Jesse Plemons thinking he was an overweight Matt Damon

That made me roar...

@ItWorriesMeThisKindofThing

Rupert Friend and Orlando Bloom look the same to me
I thought this too watching Anatomy of a Scandal!
RosaMoline · 19/04/2022 18:42

Chris Whitty & Lauren Harries!

@Wagsandclaws

Heath Ledger and Joseph Gordon - Levett, literally separated at birth!
Was just about to post that one. It's spooky

@EmmaGrundyForPM I'm with you on leonardo and Matt! Add in Mark Wahlberg and The Departed was a really difficult movie for me to follow!

Sceptre86 · 19/04/2022 18:46

Kerala Knightley and Natalie Portman. Its uncanny.

I have thought the Joshua Jackson reminds me of a younger Tony Curtis

There's a girl on tiktok who does loads of these - some of them you would never think but they actually do. For example:

Britney Spears and Marilyn Monroe or Lil Bow Wow and Harry Styles

GlitchStitch · 19/04/2022 18:57

Mariska Hargitay and Lesley Fera

Some of these are hilarious and look nothing alike to me 🤣

SnickettyLemon · 19/04/2022 19:03

Kimberley Walsh and Emily Atack could be twins.

Im often watching the news thinking "Why on earth are they interviewing Matt Hancock when he's no longer in the Cabinet" before I realise it's actually Dominc Rabb

PleaseAcceptMyUsername · 19/04/2022 19:20

Emma Watson and Richard Dawkins. I googled that and can't un-see it now. It sounds unfair to Emma, but it's more that Richard Dawkins somehow looks like a beautiful woman in a college lecturer's jumper!

ILoveYou3000 · 19/04/2022 19:23

@OnlyYourSharpestMinds

Nope - definitely Christopher Plummer & Michael Fassbender... it's uncanny!
This was the one I was just about to say. Both absolutely beautiful men.

Claire Skinner and Maxine Peake

I'm not fetishising the Irish
Grin would make a change on here from the usual treatment.
I agree Niall & Allen look alike but can't see any resemblance to the other two or between the other two.

Arghxbdhgd · 19/04/2022 19:27

Nicola Walker and Anna Maxwell Martin

I think I've realised what it is, after all these years. I think it's a similarity with their mouths and so you need to see them speak / sing, and the 2D pics aren't useful.

Some of these are uncanny. (Love the Bull Terrier / Richard Gere Grin)

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 19/04/2022 19:39

@NameChChChChanges1

Stephen merchant and Greta Thunberg. Once you see it you can't unsee it.
And now I'm dead 🤣

Same here.

That is a much better comparison than mine Grin It’s amazing they look so alike!
