16 Pairs of Celebrities Who Look Like Identical Twins

Last year, I interviewed Rachel Bilson about her biggest beauty regret. I love Bilson, having been a fan of The O.C. as well as Hart of Dixie (RIP). But because I hadn't had coffee yet or because I had a serious mental lapse, I called the Take Two star Leighton Meester to all my colleagues. I know they're not the same person, but they were both huge teen stars; I was also a huge fan of Meester in Gossip Girl. For some reason — presumably because of their pretty remarkable resemblance — I totally mixed them up in my head.

That got me thinking about all the other celebrities who look so much alike that it's scary. Some have the same hair, others have the same facial features — many have both. And one pair of celebs is even 50 years apart! But seeing these duos is like seeing double. After you stare at Meester and Bilson (above) for a while, check out 15 more pairs of actors and musicians who look like identical twins.

Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain

Both Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain are acclaimed for their acting chops in dramas and action flicks alike, but that doesn't stop people from regularly confusing one for the other. It's a downright shame that the natural redheads haven't played sisters yet.

Jaime Pressly and Margot Robbie

Thirteen-year age difference be damned — Jaime Pressly and Margot Robbie could easily pass as twins. Their blonde hair, big, bright eyes, super-straight smiles, and even their jawlines help add up to an undeniable and uncanny resemblance.

Tom Hardy and Logan Marshall-Green

Born about a year — and an ocean — apart, Logan Marshall-Green and Tom Hardy could easily be mistaken for each other if you haven't updated your glasses prescription recently. It's even easier to see the resemblance when Hardy chooses stubble over a full beard, revealing a similar bone structure to Marshall-Green's.

Millie Bobby Brown and Natalie Portman

Twitter started buzzing about the possibility that Millie Bobby Brown is a doppelgänger for a young Natalie Portman a while ago, and Satural Night Live even gave some credence to that observation. During Portman's most recent hosting gig, she played the role of Eleven during a Stranger Things parody.

Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint

The singer and the Harry Potter actor have the shaggy red hair and the smirk down perfectly. It also doesn't hurt that they both have charming British accents.

Amy Adams and Isla Fisher

Even with two different shades of red hair and differently-colored eyes, there's just something about Amy Adams and Isla Fisher that makes them seem so sisterly.

Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lawrence

You wouldn't expect the brunette model and the blonde actress to look alike, but Jennifer Lawrence arguably looks like she could be Bella Hadid's sister more than her actual sister, Gigi.

Henry Cavill and Matt Bomer

As handsome as Henry Cavill looks with a beard in the latest Mission Impossible installment, it hides just how identical his jawline is to Matt Bomer's.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Javier Bardem

There must be something about these actors' strikingly similar rugged good looks that lend themselves to playing villains, because both have taken to the big and small screen as handsome yet evil dudes.

Julie Bowen and Elizabeth Banks

Although Elizabeth Banks has guest-starred on Modern Family as one of Mitchell and Cameron's close friends, we're waiting for the plot twist that reveals she's actually Claire's long-lost sister.

Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel

Katy Perry changes up her hair quite a bit, but when she's seen wearing a look similar to Zooey Deschanel's signature long, dark-brown hair with bangs, the two are practically indistinguishable.

Nina Dobrev and Victoria Justice

If you ever get the opportunity to tell Nina Dobrev that she looks like Victoria Justice or vice-versa, don't bother — they're already well aware of the resemblance. "I met her and she was like, 'Everyone thinks I'm you!' And I was like 'Everyone thinks I'm you!'" Victoria Justice once told MTV News.

Mila Kunis and Sarah Hyland

It's their big, hazel eyes that really solidify the likeness between Mila Kunis and Sarah Hyland. But it's their eyes that can also help you tell them apart: Kunis has heterochromia, so one of her eyes is much more brown than the other.

Mick Jagger and Harry Styles

Even though they're nearly 51 years apart, these two singers look exactly the same. Styles even does a pretty spot-on impression of Jagger.

Thandie Newton and Zoe Saldana

If you've ever privately confused Thandie Newton and Zoe Saldana, be comforted by the fact that Victoria Beckham once did so publicly. In May, Newton told a story on The Graham Norton Show about how Beckham chatted her up in a SoulCycle class thinking the entire time that she was Saldana. Awkward.
