I Had No Idea That Was The Same Actor

[emuboy]

When I first watched Back to the Future in the 1980s, I thought that the roles of Lorraine Baines-McFly, George McFly and Biff Tannen were played by different actors in the 1955 and 1985 timelines. It was only some time later I learned that Leah Thompson, Crispin Glover and Thomas F Wilson portrayed both the teenage and middle-aged versions of the characters.

 

[Silvagnis]

Stu Biggs from Californication

Played Sammy Jankis in arguably Christopher Nolan's best film...



Plus Carrie-Anne Moss and Joe Pantoliano





"Apoch" was in Once Were Warriors....

 

[Silvagnis]

Peter Krause in The Truman Show.



Nate's mother-in-law from Six Feet Under was even scarier than her famous role as Zhora in Blade Runner.

 

[HoldenMagroin]

Watched some re-runs and just realised that

Karen from Will and Grace


was also in Seinfeld


It's that voice. Damn she's good.

 

[HoldenMagroin]

Chris 'Captain Kirk' Pine played one of the Tremor brothers in Smokin' Aces



Who woulda thunk it

 

[rank and file]

This is an embarrassing one but I remember the first time I watched The Departed it took me an hour to realise that Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon were different characters haha. I had to re-watch it from the start after that.

Must have been crazy hungover or something, who knows.

Watched Legend the other day,didn't realize the guy who played Reggie Kray played Ronnie Kray till the credits.Good effort by Tom Hardy bad effort by me

A few Breaking Bad actors on Seinfeld who looked a lot different back then

Ha, I wouldn't have picked Milos

 

[kfc1]

Guy Siner who played the gay Nazi in Allo Allo

turned up playing a Kaled general on some classic Doctor Who

mind was blown

 

[kfc1]

Vincent D Onofrio (Full metal jacket and Law and Order)

Watched a Matrix-style movie recently called The Thirteenth Floor and a much younger Goran turned up with long blonde hair

 

[JUBJUB]

I remember watching an episode of Community about 5 years ago and seeing this guy

Looked up IMDB at the time to see who he was.
Was stunned to see it's this guy [with Chevy Chase]

Yep it's Anthony Michael Hall,the original Rusty Griswald and he was in heaps of 80's movies like Sixteen Candles,The Breakfast Club,Weird Science

 

[kfc1]

Hawaii Five-0, see him all the time on Foxtel ads for it

then who turns up in Varsity Blues which i hadn't seen for 15 years

 

[kane249]

Was watching Die Hard 2 recently and looked up the credits after, was surprised to see this guy made an appearance

Most people would probably know him better as Bobby 'Elvis' Munson from Sons of Anarchy these days

Never knew a beardless Bobby existed

I've been rewatching buffy on netflix and have noticed a few people who I wouldn't have known watching it originally but have since gone on to bigger and better things

Sorry about the potato picture

you might know him better as

Sgt. Abraham Ford, Michael Cudlitz

or a more obvious one in his first acting role and sporting a truly horrendous american accent

of prison break and more recently flash/legends of tomorrow

Wentworth Miller

 

[aussiedude]

Was watching some more old X-files episodes on the weekend and in season 6 the episode where the black baseball player who is actually an alien was played by Jesse L Martin. Detective West on The Flash and was also on Law & Order

 

[JUBJUB]

When I started watching Chicago Fire I thought the guy who plays Chief Boden,Eamonn Walker,looked familiar and I thought he was a uniformed police officer in a TV show 10 or show years earlier.
Well I was right,but suprised to find out the show it was - The Bill

Chief Boden in Chicago Fire

Kareem Said in Oz

P.C Haynes in The Bill [1988-89]

 

[Sylvia Saint]

Jack O'Connell, the main guy in Unbroken

Is the same guy who played Cook in Skins

 

[Registered User]

This isn't quite on topic, but I woke up at about 5am the other day and saw Julia Louis-Dreyfus playing a lawyer in Family Ties. I didn't know she was in that. It was 1988, about a year before Seinfeld.

Ha, young Julia.

 

[Registered User]

Kim Cattrall. She was also Andrew McCarthy's girlfriend in a cheesy 80's flick called Mannequin.

She was also the "easy" girl in Porkies, 1982, and was in the first Police Academy film (1984)

 

[Sterge]

Another one for the list of guys buffy kills before they go onto better things

Oberyn Martel himself

 

[Silvagnis]

Night at the museum.



Mr Robot.



LOL.

Ed Skrein was great as the villain in Deadpool:

Makes up for the shocking decision to leave Game of Thrones after one season as Daario Naharis for a role in the Transporter franchise... it bombed surprise surprise.
