D-Dey's list of Celebrity look-alikes

by Ddey65 | created - 12 Jul 2011 | updated - 8 months ago | Public

Every other user on IMDb has their own list of celebrites that they think look alike. This is mine.

Like many of my lists this is incomplete, however I won't add people that I don't think look alike. So if you're going to badger me to add Amy Adams & Isla Fisher, or Victoria Justice & Nina Dobrev, don't waste your time.

1. Reed Alexander

Actor | Will & Grace

Reed Alexander was born on December 23, 1993 in Boca Raton, Florida, USA. He is an actor, known for Will & Grace (1998), iCarly (2007) and Sam & Cat (2013).

2. Matthew J. Evans

Actor | Bad Teacher

An accomplished actor, musician, and award winning young filmmaker, Matthew J. Evans was born in San Luis Obispo, CA. He made his theatrical debut at the age of 4 and began working in film and TV when he was age 9. In 2011, Matthew played Garrett Tiara opposite Cameron Diaz in Columbia Pictures ...

Many have mistaken this kid for Reed Alexander, and I'm no exception.

3. Miranda Cosgrove

Actress | Despicable Me 2

Miranda Taylor Cosgrove was born May 14, 1993 in Los Angeles, California, to Christina (Casey) and Tom Cosgrove, who owns a dry-cleaning business. She was discovered at a young age singing and dancing around a table in a restaurant, where an agent saw her talent and quickly signed her. Miranda's ...

4. Cierra Ramirez

Actress | Girl in Progress

Cierra Ramirez was born on March 9, 1995 in Houston, Texas, USA. She is an actress and producer, known for Girl in Progress (2012), The Fosters (2013) and Good Trouble (2019).

I've always thought Ramirez looked like Miranda Cosgrove, but I must be the only person who has ever said that. That's because for a while she did look like Miranda. Not so much anymore.

5. Nikki Hahn

Actress | Adventures in Babysitting

Sofia Nicole Hahn was born in San Antonio, Texas, USA

This Texas native began building a solid resume almost immediately after arriving in Hollywood at age 3. Before her first television appearance, Nikki enjoyed modeling for Disney Campaigns, GAP, American Girl, Little Marc Jacobs & Jessica Simpson...

While Ramirez certainly looked a lot like Miranda Cosgrove in the past, Nikki Hahn looks even more like her today.

6. Valerie Bertinelli

Actress | One Day at a Time

Valerie Bertinelli was born in Wilmington, Delaware, to Nancy (Carvin) and Andrew Francis Bertinelli, Jr., a General Motors executive, and raised with her one older and two younger brothers. In her early teens, her father was transferred to a GM assembly plant in the Detroit, Michigan area and her ...

7. Ciara Bravo

Actress | Cherry

Ciara Bravo has become one of the few actresses working today to move easily between television and film. Ciara's acting career has brought her roles that range from the girl next door brainiac to the deeply troubled adolescent. Her finesse with subtle off-beat humor and a touch of warmth adds to ...

The crew of "Hot in Cleveland" missed the chance with her for a flashback scene involving Valerie Bertinelli's character.

8. Marisa Tomei

Actress | My Cousin Vinny

Marisa Tomei was born on December 4, 1964, in Brooklyn, New York, to Patricia "Addie" (Bianchi), a teacher of English, and Gary Tomei, a lawyer, both of Italian descent. Marisa has a brother, actor Adam Tomei. As a child, Marisa's mother frequently corrected her speech as to eliminate her heavy ...

9. Daniella Monet

Actress | Nancy Drew

Monet was born in West Hills, California. She has performed on the small screen in numerous television commercials beginning at the age of seven. In 1997, she had a guest appearance in an episode of Pacific Blue. In 2003, she landed recurring roles on the television series American Dreams, The ...

She's probably already on other people's list of Marisa Tomei look-alikes, but I just had to include her.

10. Kira Kosarin

Actress | The Thundermans

Actor, musician, internet sensation, and 4x Kids' Choice Awards nominee (and winner), Kira Kosarin is, as TeenVogue put it, "a real-life superhero". With a following of nearly 40 million fans across platforms, and having recently executive produced The Thundermans Return' movie coming to Paramount+...

Just found out who she was recently, and I can't help but think of her as a Daniella Monet look-alike.

11. Bailee Madison

Actress | Bridge to Terabithia

This young actress has worked with a number of the industry's biggest stars in a variety of diverse and challenging roles. She won rave reviews and a Critics Choice Movie Award nomination for her powerful work on the feature film, Brothers (2009), opposite Tobey Maguire, Natalie Portman and Jake ...

12. Maia Mitchell

Actress | Teen Beach 2

Maia Mitchell is an Australian singer/song writer and actress from Lismore, New South Wales. She learned to play the guitar at a very young age and her talent has been included on The Fosters (2013) - an ABC Family show that aired in June 2013, where Maia plays one of the main roles of "Callie ...

Normally it wouldn't make sense to claim the older actress looks like the younger one, but I knew of Bailee Madison before I knew of Maia Mitchell, and I assume most people have. Maia just happens to look like an older version of Bailee.

13. Alison Brie

Actress | GLOW

Alison Brie was born in Hollywood, California, to Joanne (Brenner), who worked at a non-profit child care agency, and Charles Terry Schermerhorn, a musician and entertainment reporter. Her mother is Jewish and her father has Scottish, Dutch, English, German, and Norwegian ancestry. Brie grew up in ...

14. Laura Marano

Actress | The Royal Treatment

Laura Marano started acting in the theatre when she was five years old. She has done numerous plays at the Agoura Children's Theatre, and continued her acting in many national commercials.

She is now starring in the new Disney Channel pilot, Austin & Ally (2011), where she is playing the title ...

Laura was getting to the point where she looked like Alison Brie at one time.

15. Hannah Simone

Actress | New Girl

Hannah Simone stars on FOX's hit series, New Girl (2011), opposite Zooey Deschanel. Simone hosted HGTV Canada's popular design show, "Space for Living", before moving onto Canada's largest music channel, "MuchMusic". After MuchMusic, Simone moved to Los Angeles, where she hosted two seasons of WCG ...

16. Jaidan Jiron

Actress | New Girl

Jaidan Jiron is known for New Girl (2011), Legion (2017) and Supergirl (2015).

Sometimes, casting departments get really lucky when they find kid actors who look exactly like the adults they play. Jaidan Jiron is so perfect as a pre-teen Hannah Simone it's hard to believe she's not Ms. Simone's own daughter.

17. Raini Rodriguez

Actress | Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2

Raini Rodriguez was born on July 1, 1993 in Bryan, Texas, USA. She is an actress and director, known for Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (2015), Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009) and Austin & Ally (2011).

18. Eliana Arroyo

Actress | Austin & Ally

Eliana Arroyo is known for Austin & Ally (2011) and Rachel & the TreeSchoolers (2012).

Another case of a casting department getting really lucky. Despite the photo that used to be here, when Eliana had her hair curled, she was the perfect kindergarten version of Raini Rodriguez.

19. Danny Thomas

Actor | Make Room for Daddy

Known primarily as a TV actor, he starred as a nightclub singer on the popular The Danny Thomas Show (1953).

He also served TV behind the cameras partnering with Sheldon Leonard and Aaron Spelling to create such shows as Dick Van Dyke's show, The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961), The Andy Griffith Show (...

20. Jason Wingreen

Actor | Archie Bunker's Place

Character actor Jason Wingreen was born on October 9, 1920 in Brooklyn, New York City. The son of a Jewish tailor father, Wingreen grew up in the Howard Beach neighborhood of Queens. Jason attended John Adams High School and majored in English and Speech at Brooklyn College (he initially planned on...

There's was no picture here when I added him at the time, but I've often confused this man with Danny Thomas.

21. Maggie Wheeler

Actress | The Parent Trap

Maggie Wheeler was born on August 7, 1961 in New York City, New York, USA. She is an actress, known for The Parent Trap (1998), Friends (1994) and The Addams Family (2019). She has been married to Daniel Borden Wheeler since October 20, 1990. They have two children.

22. Ainsley Bailey

Actress | Shake It Up

Ainsley Bailey is a Los Angeles based stand-up comedian with a strong background in acting. A black sheep with a silver tongue, Ainsley Bailey's enigmatic brand of comedy is timidly deadpan with a heavy dose of childlike whimsy. In a style that is both earnest and experimental, Ainsley strives to ...

The crew of "Shake It Up" did not make the same mistake as the crew of "Hot in Cleveland," when they had Maggie Wheeler play Dina Garcia's mom.

23. Miranda May

Actress | Bunk'd

Miranda May, originally from Ohio, began acting at the age of 8. Soon after moving to Los Angeles at the age of 10, she was cast in "The Heartbreak Kid" starring Ben Stiller. She would follow this impressive debut with the film "Lower Learning" starring Eva Longoria and Jason Biggs. Her first ...

24. Kelsey Dodds

Actress | Adventures in Babysitting

Kelsey Dodds is known for Adventures in Babysitting (2016).

She has no picture on IMDb yet, but the woman who played "Jailer Swift" in the DCOM remake of "Adventures in Babysitting" looks a lot like an older Miranda May.

25. Jerry O'Connell

Actor | Stand by Me

Jerry O'Connell was born in New York City, to Linda (Witkowski), an art teacher, and Michael O'Connell, a British-born advertising agency art director. He spent his early years in Manhattan, with his parents and younger brother, Charlie O'Connell, who is also an actor. He is of one half Irish, one ...

26. Jerry Trainor

Actor | Evolution

Jerry Trainor was born on January 21, 1977, and is an American television and movie actor. Jerry graduated from the University of San Diego High School, which is now known as Cathedral Catholic High School, and Jerry's mother teaches both pre-calculus and calculus there. It has been said that Jerry...

I'm seriously waiting for Trainor to play a brother or cousin of a character played by Jerry O'Connell. I think it could be pulled off.

27. Emily Browning

Actress | A Series of Unfortunate Events

Australian actress Emily Browning was born in 1988 in Melbourne, Australia, to Shelley and Andrew Browning. She has two younger brothers. Her start in acting came after a classmate's father, involved in the acting business, noticed her "acting all ditsy" in a school play. Emily found an agent and ...

28. Malina Pauli Weissman

Actress | A Series of Unfortunate Events

Malina Pauline Weissman is an American-German actress. She was born in New York City to a German-Palestinian-mother, and an American father of Romanian-Jewish descent. Her most notable roles are, as Violet Baudelaire in the Netflix series A Series of Unfortunate Events, young April O'Neil in ...

I was surprised that they found another young actress who looked so much like Emily Browning when she was in "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events." It proves that Hollywood casting directors can really find younger versions of older actors if they try.

29. Emily Ricks Hahn

Actress | Beautifully Broken

Emily Ricks Hahn was born on July 28, 2000 in Los Angeles, California, USA. She is an actress, known for Beautifully Broken (2018), Toy Story 3 (2010) and Camp Cool Kids (2017).

30. Carrie Alexander

Carrie Wampler can be seen in director Alexandre Moors' feature film, "The Yellow Birds," opposite Alden Ehrenreich and Jennifer Aniston. Based on the novel by Iraq War vet Kevin Powers, the story follows two young soldiers who become friends in boot camp and navigate the terrors of the war ...

The current (May 18, 2020) IMDb pic of Emily Hahn looks like a brunette version of Carrie Wampler.

31. Roy Poole

Actor | 1776

Roy Poole was born on March 31, 1924 in San Bernardino, California, USA. He was an actor, known for 1776 (1972), Mandingo (1975) and Network (1976). He was married to Marie Cote. He died on July 1, 1986 in Mount Kisco, New York, USA.

32. Butch Patrick

Actor | The Phantom Tollbooth

In 1960, a young 7-year-old named Patrick Lilley went on an Amos Carr photo shoot with his little sister. She was the subject but it was "Butch's" head shot that would wind up in the Hollywood Blvd. window! Utilizing his nickname and real first name, his agent Mary Grady and his mom Patti created ...

Over on the Bing search engine, there's a picture of Butch, and I swear he looks like Roy Poole. Maybe he should play as J.J. McHabe in a remake of "Up the Down Staircase."

33. Mark Hamill

Actor | Star Wars

Mark Hamill is best known for his portrayal of Luke Skywalker in the original Star Wars trilogy - Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) - a role he reprised in Star Wars: Episode VII - ...

34. Noah Bastian

Actor | 2gether

Noah Bastian was born on August 26, 1979 in San Jose, California, USA. He is an actor, known for 2gether (2000), 2gether: The Series (2000) and Unaccompanied Minors (2006).

Until I saw his name in the "FamousFix" website, I described him as a Mark Hamill look-alike, because in "Unaccompanied Minors" he truly did look like Hamill in the late-1970's.

35. Jonathan Harris

Actor | Lost in Space

An eloquent character actor who would become a celebrated TV camp icon of the late 1960s, Jonathan Harris was born Jonathan Daniel Charasuchin on November 6, 1914, in the Bronx borough of New York City. The son of impoverished Russian-Jewish émigrés, his father worked in the garment industry and ...

36. Brian Stepanek

Actor | Bolt

Brian Stepanek was born on February 6, 1971 in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. He is an actor and director, known for Bolt (2008), Over the Hedge (2006) and Pain & Gain (2013). He has been married to Parisa Yazdanfar since July 14, 2002. They have three children.

The former Arwin Hochauser was played such a convincing Jonathan Harris as Dr. Zachary Smith from "Lost in Space" in the "Young Sheldon" episode "A Pink Cadillac and a Glorious Tribal Dance," that if there was ever a biopic on Harris, the making of "Lost in Space," or Charles Nelson Reilly on "Uncle Croc's Block" that he has to get the part of Harris.

37. Zooey Deschanel

Actress | New Girl

Zooey Deschanel was born in 1980 into a showbiz family. Her father, Caleb Deschanel, is an Academy Award-nominated cinematographer (perhaps most notably for The Passion of the Christ (2004)) and her mother, Mary Jo Deschanel (née Weir), is an actress who appeared in Twin Peaks (1990). Her paternal ...

38. Isabella Pappas

Actress | The Reckoning

Isabella Pappas is an Olivier Award nominated Actress based in London.

Isabella made her stage debut playing the role of Iris in THE NETHER at the Royal Court Theatre and its West End transfer to the Duke of York's Theatre. This role earned her a well deserved nomination for 'Best Supporting Actress...

Any woman can get bangs like Zooey Deschanel when she was on "New Girl," at their local hairstylist. Not that many can have as much of a resemblance to her as Isabella Pappas does.
