A little different since one's a voice and one you can't really see her anyway, but the girl who played Lilo in Lilo and Stitch is the same one that played the girl in The Ring.

Damn, Wilson got even better looking with age. He was a bit ragged in Top Gun.

Jared Harris has had an incredible career but did you know the star of Cherbobyl was a British officer in The Last of the Mohicans? Tripped me out when I noticed him this weekend

Stumbled on this one today, may have been mentioned. But I was surprised that never realized it before, the mafia connection.


Ray Liotta's wife in Goodfellas




Was Tony's shrink on Sopranos

Here's a fun fact.

Both of the actors to voice Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII and all associated properties also played Superman.

George Newbern (Advent Children, Crisis Core, Kingdom Hearts, etc.) was his voice in the animated series.

Tyler Hoeclin (Remake) has already been mentioned.

Lorraine Bracco was the first choice to play Carmela, but after reading the script she preferred Dr. Melfi. She felt she'd already "been there, done that" as the Mafia wife.

I've seen Big Fish a few times. Took a break from a rewatch of Eastbound and Down to watch it and didn't realize Mr. Soggybottom was the same guy who played Aaron in Season 2.

Doing a re-watch of Supernatural and already saw the guy that plays Stewart from Letterkenny in it once. He shows up again later as a different character.

But I've now seen two more. Jared Kesso, the creator and actor who plays Wayne was in Season 2 Episode 4 as the boyfriend of some girl who came back from the dead as a zombie because her friend zoned guy friend brought her back.





Even weirder, the woman that plays Mrs. McMurray on Letterkenny, Melanie Scrofano, showed up in a bit part in season 2 Episode 20 as the girl who was near-dead due to the Jinn that had trapped Dean in his fantasy life.







This has got to be because Supernatural was filmed in Canada and they were just grabbing local actors, but still...kind of neat to see them doing something bigger later on.
