Actors Who Secretly Played Multiple Characters In The Same Movie
1,684Different Movie Roles Who Were Played By The Same Actor!
If you’ve ever been watching a movie and thought two characters seem strangely familiar to one another it might have been because it really was the same actor taking on both roles! In today’s video, we’ll be checking out some actors who pulled not just double duty, but sometimes triple and even quadruple duty!
We know Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, but he actually took on another major role and wound up acting opposite himself! Warwick Davis actually took on three roles in the first Harry Potter film! He played Professor Flitwick of course and voiced the goblin Griphook. His role you may have missed was that of the head goblin bank teller!
While Robin Williams pulled off loads of impressions in Aladdin, he actually played a completely different small role - the peddler from the opening! Benedict Cumberbatch is super recognizable as Doctor Strange - but his voice sure wasn’t in his second major role in the film.
Some actors became known for their portrayals of multiple different characters in their movies, like Mike Myers and Eddie Murphy. Mike Myers took on multiple roles in Austin Powers and Murphy proved his acting chops in plenty of films like Coming To America, The Nutty Professor and most recently reprising his roles in Coming To America in the 2021 film Coming 2 America.
How do they pull off these feats? Actors bring their best work to the table alongside the incredible prosthetics, makeup, wig and costume design teams to disguise actors enough so they can pull off multiple appearances. We’re covering all these and more!
