And you didn’t notice: 5 actors who played several roles in the same film
Have you seen the movie “Back to the Future 2” (1989)? How often? Apparently, they noticed that the main character Marty and his beautiful daughter Marlene McFly are similar to each other. The fact is that they were played by the same actor – Michael J. Fox. Yes, so skillfully that he looked organic in both images.
In what other films have Hollywood stars been lucky enough to play several characters at once? Find out in the material OBOZ.UA. Some of them were so made up that they were unrecognizable in their second role.
British stage and film actor Jonathan Hyde in the legendary film “Jumanji” (1995), he played the role of shoe factory owner Sam Parrish, as well as the main antagonist Van Pelt, a big game hunter. In the image of the first, he can be easily recognized, but only the most attentive will see behind the makeup and crazy look of the second Jonathan.
American comedian and film producer Ben Stiller in the first two films, “Night at the Museum” (2006 and 2009), he so impressed the directors with his professional acting that in the third part, “Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb” (2014), he was “given” two roles at once. Have you noticed which ones? We are talking about the night guard Larry Daly and the Neanderthal Laaa.
American actor and director Eddie Murphy surpassed all the actors in this selection. In Coming to America (1988), he played four very different characters: Prince Akeem (heir to the throne of Zamunda), barbershop owner Clarence, soul singer Randy Watson of the fictional band Sexual Chocolate, and a Jewish barbershop client named Soul.
The make-up artists and stylists (of course, the actor himself) worked so well on each image that Eddie Murphy can only be recognized in the role of the prince.
Actor and TV presenter Warwick Davis played several characters in the Harry Potter films: the goblin Griphook and Professor Filius Flitwick. This decision was facilitated not only by the star’s virtuoso playing, but also by his rare form of dwarfism. Warwick’s height is 107 cm. By the way, this same innate feature helped him get his first (and immediately iconic!) role – the Ewok Wicket in the Star Wars film series.
English stage and film actor Dean-Charles Chapman in the series “Game of Thrones” he played the roles of the son of Kevan Lannister, Martin Lannister, and Tommen Baratheon, the third king of the Seven Kingdoms from the Baratheon dynasty. For the second character, the stylists changed the style of the hairstyle and costumes quite a bit, but this was enough for not all viewers to notice the familiar face. Have you ever had the feeling “I’ve seen him before somewhere”?
