I was so fooled by the striking resemblance

I was watching this TV series "Merlin" through downloads and couldn't help but be amazed at the striking resemblance between this Irish actress Katie McGrath and Keira Knightley. http://www.merlintvshow.com/page/Katie+McGrath Katie plays the role of Lady Morgana, while Keira, as we remember played the role of Elizabeth Swann in the movie "Pirates of the Carribean". And no, Keira is not in Merlin. Later on, I did notice of course a lot of differences but during the first few episodes that I watched, I found it hard to accept that Lady Morgana was Katie and not Keira. (Strange that their names both start with K) It weirds me out sometimes just thinking that out there, there may be other people who look like me. If you bump into one, how would you react? Do you know of other celebrities who got similar facial features? Like how Matt Damon can look like Leonardo DiCaprio, or Mark Wahlberg sometimes? And oh, well, Keira's much skinnnier.

No, Matt and Leonardo don't really look exactly the same but I find a certain similarity in their eyes. Matt's chin is much longer! SO who's the Leo duplicate?And where can we find him.

For the longest time I thought the actor who played Lex Luthor on Smallville was the same actor who played Tom Paris on Star Trek Voyager. I finally had to watch the credits on both shows to prove to myself that they were different actors entirely.

FINALLY! A SMALLVILLE fan! Could it be the baldness that's had you confused? Michael Rosenbaum is the most awesome Lex Luthor ever. If it isn't too demoralizing on Tom Welling's part, I definitely would say he's a far better actor.

No, it wasn't anything to do with their hair or lack thereof cause Tom Paris had a full head of hair. It was the structure of their face and the way their eyes sparkled. I agree that Michael Rosenbaum made an awesome Lex Luthor but I really liked the way Tom Paris was played as well.

OH,my bad. The last time I saw Star Trek was when I first shed my temporary teeth! So that means I don't know any of the characters. I just sort of remembered that there was a bald man in Star Trek and now I am not even sure if I saw that in Star Trek or from another movie.

There is an actress in the TV show Chuck, and her name is Sarah Lancaster. She plays Chucks's sister. I think she looks like a twin of the actress named Maggie Grace, who played Shannon on the show LOST. Also, a while back there was a show called Moonlight on CBS. The main actress on the show was Sophia Myles. To me, she looks so similar to Kate Winslet.

I just took a look at the pictures. They DO look alike.
