In Hollywood, it’s not uncommon to come across celebrities who bear an uncanny resemblance to each other. From Reese Witherspoon and Carrie Underwood to Isla Fisher and Amy Adams, these stars often leave fans doing a double-take. HELLO! takes a closer look at some of the most striking celebrity lookalikes yet.
Amy Adams & Isla Fisher
The Nocturnal Animals co-stars are well aware of their doppelgänger status. Isla Fisher once revealed on NBC's Today show that she cheekily pasted Amy Adams’ face over hers for her family's holiday card, fooling everyone with their likeness. The two actresses share not only similar features but also a sense of humor about their resemblance.
Margot Robbie & Jaime Pressly
Jaime Pressly, known for her role in My Name Is Earl, has often been mistaken for the Barbie star, Margot Robbie. In 2022, Jaime told Us Weekly, "The celebrity I am mistaken for is Margot Robbie. It happens all the time." With their strikingly similar looks, it's easy to see why people might confuse the two.
Jessica Chastain & Bryce Dallas Howard
The resemblance between Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard is so uncanny that even Bryce’s father, director Ron Howard, once mistook Jessica for his daughter. Jessica recalled the moment at an Apple Store, saying, "I was walking by, and I saw Ron Howard. He turned to someone and said, 'I think I just saw Bryce.' We look so much alike." Bryce confirmed the story, saying her dad "was, like, shook. He really was." The two redheads could easily pass for twins.
Reese Witherspoon & Carrie Underwood
Reese Witherspoon and Carrie Underwood share more than just blonde locks. When a fan mistook Reese for Carrie, the Legally Blonde star took to Twitter to share her amusement, writing, "To the woman in the parking lot who just asked me if I was Carrie Underwood, you officially made my day." Carrie responded, "YOUR day?!?!?!?! That lady just made my whole life!" The mutual admiration between these two talented blondes is heartwarming.
Daniel Radcliffe & Elijah Wood
Daniel Radcliffe and Elijah Wood are often mistaken for each other, despite their differing heights. In a joint interview with Empire magazine, Daniel noted, "Though we are both short, pale, blue-eyed, and brown-haired, I would say we don't actually look alike. But the idea of us is exactly the same." Daniel even signed an autograph as Elijah while in Japan, adding, "I am not Elijah Wood, signed Daniel Radcliffe," hoping someone would translate it for the fan later.
McKenna Grace & Kiernan Shipka
You’re not seeing double! The talented McKenna Grace, known for her role in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, looks remarkably like Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star Kiernan Shipka. The resemblance became even more noticeable after Grace portrayed a younger version of Shipka’s character Sabrina on the Netflix series. Writer Jamie Jirak once tweeted a collage of Grace’s younger-version roles, including her as Sabrina, and wrote, "I think about this a lot." Grace responded with a crying-laughing emoji, "Same."

The two brunette actresses have beautiful brown eyes and delicate, elfish facial features. "Natalie Portman I get a lot, and I get chased through airports," said Keira on being mistaken for her doppelgänger. "I feel quite sorry for her because she must get chased a lot because it's happened like five times where someone's been like, ‘Natalie! Natalie! Natalie!'
