    Speaking of Superman, I've seen multiple people online confusing Richard Kiel (Jaws in Bond) with Jack O'Halloran (Non in Superman).

    I hope she was fired immediately after. What an absolute idiot.

    Sounds like she's a student.

    The mistake isn't the big issue - it's the fact she argues with Cusack about it, like maybe he really was in "American Beauty" and just forgot! :laugh:

    I suspect Cusack would've been more annoyed if she didn't seem to be hot! :D

    Samara Weaving looks enough like Margot Robbie that when I saw trailers for "Ready or Not", I thought it was Robbie.

    LOL, there are other Robbie lookalikes too people have put together online. They should hire all of them for a Stepford Wives remake.

    I think for years people had famously confused Jeff bridges and Kurt Russel, especially in the 80's and 90's.

    Yeah, I was actually thinking about those two yesterday. I definitely think I had them confused during that exact timeframe. I was trying to remember if Jeff Daniels was in the mix too.

    I remember a buddy of mine would confuse Kris Kristopherson with Bridges, or was it Russel?

    Never saw much of resemblance and tended to dismiss it as people simply mistaking two Latino guys who happened to both be famous at the same time with few other contemporaries.

    But ... Tony guest starred on Chico & the Man where the plot was that he looked just like Chico (Freddie Sr). And it was a very funny episode. So maybe I am thinking too much.

    I wonder how many people actually confused Bruce Springsteen with Rick Springfield, the latter having a song about it. But in 1981 I did have a co worker from Minnesota who thought Springsteen was an actor on a soap opera who also sang.

    British tough-guy actors Don Henderson and Michael Elphick used to joke that they would attend public appearances for each other, since they were often mistaken for each other, and nobody would be brave enough to face them down and ask where the other was.

    I don't get the SLJ/Fishburne mixup, as beyond "bald Black guys", they don't look alike!

  24. I think it’s the eyes - they’re both bald black actors with particularly intense, almost googly eyes.
