What actors/actresses have you mistaken for others?

[dennilfloss]

I enjoyed watching Ghost Rider this evening but the actress who I thought was Gina Gershon :heart: turns out to have been another actress whose name is Eva Mendes. Ditto for Blackheart, I thought he was played by Joaquin Phoenix but it turned out to be some dude named Wes Bentley. Guess I need new glasses.

Johnny Knoxville and Josh Duhamel, I thought it was Knoxville in Transformers but figured it couldn't be when no one mentioned his name in anything.

Not exactly related, but was watching Harold and Kumar the other day and none of us watching correctly guessed who played Freakshow. I thought it was Seth Green, someone else guessed Jamie Kennedy, yet it turns out to be Elliot from SVU! Never would've guess that.

Kirsten Dunst / Julia Stiles
I'm not sure why because they really don't look alike, but I always get them confused.

 

[poopaskoopa]

I used to think it was Drew Barrymore in those Aerosmith videos.

 

[SpiderWiz]

When these guys were younger I always got them mixed up.

Morgan Freeman and Samuel Jackson

 

[BeauJangles]

That girl from The Ringer, Knocked Up (and Grey's (?) someone told me) and Scarlett Johannson or however she spells her name.

 

[Chiropteran]

Val Kilmer and Brad Pitt, I mixed them up in the past, but I can tell them apart now.

Doesn't CasioTech look like the guy from the Superman Series; or is that just someone he worships?

Mena Suvari, Mira Sorvino and Mila Jokovich. Not so much Mila, but I can not for the world tell the first two apart since they look similar and names are almost the same.

When I first saw Superman Returns, I thought superman was the kid from Rushmore that had just grown up and became handsome....

Brandon Routh (Superman...)

Jason Schwartzman

I was VERY wrong, Jason Schwartzman is still funny looking....
