‘Doesn’t Look like Her’: Meg Ryan, 62, Sparks Online Buzz with Latest Photo

"Sleepless in Seattle" star Meg Ryan recently shared a photo on Instagram that sparked discussions among her fans. While some praised the actress for her timeless appearance, others opined that she seemed different from her usual self.

Marking the final Monday of January, Meg Ryan took to Instagram to share a photo donning a gray sleeveless buttoned top paired with matching pants. The acclaimed actress, her blonde tresses casually resting on her shoulders, exuded warmth as she sat with a radiant smile.

In the caption, she wrote, "Happy Monday," accompanied by a festive ta-da party emoji. The post garnered diverse reactions online, with one fan expressing admiration, "Do you even age??? So cute!❤️" Meanwhile, another observer focused on an intriguing detail, asking, "Is that a wedding band on her left ring finger?"

However, not all responses were uniformly positive, as one user questioned the familiarity of Ryan's appearance, commenting, "This doesn't look like Meg. Especially since she just cut her [hair], I think. Anyway, doesn't look like her." Additionally, a different perspective emerged, with a user suggesting a resemblance to another renowned actress, stating, "You look like Goldie Hawn."

Returning to the silver screen after an eight-year hiatus, Ryan made a comeback with "What Happens Later," released in November 2023. The film, in which Ryan starred alongside David Duchovny, centers on the lives of two former lovers, Willa and Bill, who find themselves reconnecting after 25 years during an unforeseen airport encounter amid a massive storm.

In a late November interview, the "City of Angels" star shared that she was immersed in quality time with her children, Jack Quaid and Daisy True Ryan, during the COVID-19 pandemic when she received the script draft.

Having relocated to a new town with her daughter just before the onset of the pandemic, Ryan, a single mom of two, recalled a deep yearning for connection during the period of isolation. Reflecting on her decision to join "What Happens Later," a film depicting being locked down with someone from one's past, she pondered the opportunity to resolve unresolved issues.

Ryan found it easy to imagine the scenario and felt drawn to the script's exploration of whether one would seize the chance to address lingering matters. Addressing her return to Hollywood after a substantial hiatus, Ryan disclosed, "I wanted to make something beautiful and offer a new way of thinking about what love is."

In another interview, Meg Ryan's co-star, Duchovny, reminisced about a dance scene in which they spontaneously improvised the choreography. Duchovny shared, "Somehow, we just were in the same space without belting one another in the head." He further mentioned that the scene required three takes to capture the desired footage.
