Once, the two actresses stood in front of a mirror to compare their features. According to Chastain, she is tired of having people mistake her for the "Jurassic Park" star.

Susan Sarandon vs. Sigourney Weaver

While their specific features look different, Susan Sarandon and Sigourney Weaver look very much alike. In 2016, Sarandon admitted that she is frequently mistaken for Weaver and vice versa. During the Glamour Women of the Year Awards, Sarandon said:

"I [want to] clarify a few things. Sigourney may have left the stage, but we are two different people. I have taken credit for 'Alien' many times, and she's signed autographs for me."

Hilary Swank vs. Jennifer Garner

The same could not be said for Hilary Swank, who has received hate for refusing to sign autographs for those who confused her with Jennifer Garner. "The Million Dollar Baby" star once revealed fans would act up when she would convince them that she was not Garner.

However, because Swank doesn't want to give Garner a bad name, she sometimes agreed when persistent fans asked for photos.

During a 2018 interview, Knightley revealed that she had been chased in the airport by people who thought she was Portman. She has also had several photos taken where people thought she was Portman.

Interestingly, Knightley also gets mistaken for Kate Winslet and Rachel Weisz. "Quite a few have come over to me to ask me to say hello to Daniel Craig for them because they think I'm Rachel Weisz," she said.

Liam Neeson vs. Ralph Fiennes

While many women in Hollywood have lookalikes, there are also a few men with resemblances in the industry, including 70-year-old Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes.

During an interview with "The Jonathan Ross Show," Neeson narrated when he was asked to pay tribute to those honored on D-Day. After he made a short speech, a lady approached him and asked for an autograph. "I'd be honored," Neeson said. As he signed, the lady said, "We love 'The English Patient,'" referring to Fiennes' film.

Margot Robbie vs. Emma Mackey

With the release of "Barbie," more movie watchers have noticed the strong resemblance between Margot Robbie and Emma Mackey.

Mackey and Robbie also co-star in "Barbie," and given the resemblance, Robbie shared that they considered adding a joke about it in the film. However, they discovered the two didn't look that much alike when Mackey had brown hair in costume, so they decided against it.
