You know how sometimes you’re re-watching The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (side note: bring back that show, you cowards!) and suddenly you’re like, wait, what is Hermione doing here? but it's actually Kiernan Shipka? No? Just Me? Kay fine, lemme present another scenario: You finally get around to watching best-show-everSex Educationon Netflix, realize Emma Mackey looks identical to Margot Robbie, won't shut up about it to all your friends/family, and then rejoice when they're both cast in the Barbie movie.

Point is: Hollywood is full of celebrity doppelgängers, and some are extremely convincing. I'd even go as far to say that some are...alarmingly convincing. To the point where we 10/10 think Matt Bomer and Henry Cavill are secretly related, and I might never get over how much a certain star of MTV's The Hills (who may or may not have gone to Paris) looks exactly like Kate Middleton. And don't even get me started on Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel, who need to do a 23andMe stat.

And these ^^^ are merely a few examples of the famous lookalikes we've rounded up. Bet ya didn't know the following famous faces also have twins: Sarah Hyland, Thandiwe Newton, Tom Hardy, and even Real Housewives' very own Kyle Richards—whose resemblance to your fave country star will leave you forever mind-blown. But are we really surprised considering The New York Times just published a story that makes it clear pretty much all of us have doppelgängers out there? Nope!

On that note, go ahead and let your eyeballs enjoy the following 73 celebrity lookalikes.

Sarah Hyland

With her dramatic hazel-green eyes and Mona Lisa grin, the Modern Family star is a dead ringer for Mila Kunis—and I’m not the only one who thinks so. On The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Sarah shared she gets mistaken for Mila “a lot.” So much so that Mila gave her permission to go ahead and pretend that she’s the That ’70s Show actor when fans mix them up.

Mila Kunis

See? Mila could so be Sarah’s big sis, right? I need a movie with these two stars playing siblings PRONTO.

Zooey Deschanel

According to Zooey, before Katy Perry became mega famous, people would confuse her for the pop star all the time—and she wasn’t amped about it. “It’s a little bit annoying, to be totally blunt. The only similarity that we have is that we look a little bit alike,” Zooey told MTV. “I have met her before. She seems like a nice person. I'm happy that she’s famous enough now that she’s not going out and being mistaken for me.”

Katy Perry

For her part, Katy told MTV that she used to get mistaken for Zooey “all the time…it got really funny.” Guess KP didn’t really mind it as much!

Isla Fisher

Because Isla Fisher has a *great* sense of humor and is very aware that she looks just like Amy Adams, she Photoshopped Amy’s face onto hers in their family Christmas card and wrote, “Seasons greetings from Sacha [her husband] and Isla.” The funniest part? “No one noticed,” she said on Today. “Everyone was like, ‘Oh, your card was so cute.’ I was like, ‘It was a joke. It’s not me, it’s Amy!’”

Amy Adams

Luckily, Amy has no problem with it. When asked by the Daily Mail if it’s weird that people think she and Isla look alike, Amy responded, “I love it! Isla and I talk about it all the time. We thought it was the best thing ever.” Cute.

Logan Marshall-Green

Actor Logan Marshall-Green (you might remember him for playing Ryan’s brother, Trey Atwood, on The O.C.) looks JUST like Tom Hardy. It’s just a fact.

Tom Hardy

See what I'm talking about?? I think it’s the lips. And the eyes. And the nose too. You get the picture.

Lucy Hale

Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale might be famous in her own right, but that doesn’t stop people from confusing her with Selena Gomez. In 2011, she tweeted, “Someone was seriously convinced I was Selena Gomez today and tried to take my phone because they wanted to call Justin Bieber. Ohh life.” Lol.

Selena Gomez

The bold brows? The light pink lips? The dramatic dark bob? At the very least, these two are beauty twins.

Dax Shepard

Zach Braff and Dax Shepard know they look alike. They even tested it once with a FaceSwap photo, which got extremely weird. Zach tweeted that he was going to put the FaceSwap on a T-shirt, which I plan to order in bulk. As for Dax, he replied to a follower who wrote, “Am I the only one that finds this deeply disturbing but can't stop looking at it?” with a simple, “Nope.” Ha.

Zach Braff

Zach clearly finds his resemblance to Dax amusing. One time, he left the following comment on a pic of Kristen Bell (Dax’s wife) and Dax: “We look cute here.” 😂

Victoria Justice

Victoria told the Huffington Post that she gets confused for Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev literally all the time: “It’s been happening forever! I think it’s flattering. She’s so pretty, so it’s very nice to be able to say that!” And apparently, it’s not just a once-in-awhile thing either. Victoria told MTV, “You don't understand. I get this every single day.”

Nina Dobrev

It doesn’t seem like either of them mind too much. “I met her and she was like, ‘Everyone thinks I’m you!’ And I was like, ‘Everyone thinks I’m you!’” Victoria told MTV. “We hugged it out, and it was all good.”

Zoë Saldana

“I’ll be walking down the street and I’ll have people go, ‘Hey, [Thandiwe] Newton,’” Zoë told Craig Ferguson (via E!) of her resemblance to the Westworld star. And TBH, I see it!

Thandiwe Newton

It definitely goes both ways—Thandiwe also gets mistaken for Zoë. In fact, Victoria Beckham (who has met Thandiwe before, btw) once had a whole conversation with Thandiwe at SoulCycle thinking that she was Zoë. “It’s alright, because obviously Zoë Saldana is absolutely a rare beauty,” Thandiwe said on The Graham Norton Show. “But up close? Come on! And I'm English!”

Christa Allen

The Revenge actor’s dazzling smile, ’80s brows, and brunette locks remind us of one of our favorite Girls. Ready for it?

Allison Williams

I seriously need proof that Christa and Allison aren’t related. They even have the same jawline!

Henry Cavill

Henry and White Collar star Matt Bomer look so similar that they were once considered for the same job. (It was Henry’s breakout role as Superman!)

Matt Bomer

I mean...the resemblance is wild, right?! If you told me they were brothers, I’d say, “Now it all makes sense” and then laugh maniacally or something.

Jessica Chastain

Jessica and Bryce Dallas Howard know that you confuse them—but still, they wanted to see it for themselves. So while they were shooting The Help, as Jessica explained on The Tonight Show, “We grabbed each other and were like, ‘Let’s look in the mirror.’ And we looked at our faces side by side, and we were like, ‘Okay, we look alike.’

Bryce Dallas Howard

On The Graham Norton Show, Bryce said of the comparisons, “It’s very flattering to me. She’s unbelievable.” She added that people used to mix them up even before they were famous, when they were both acting students in NYC.

Rupert Grint

IDK if it’s a redhead thing, but the Harry Potter star says that he’s frequently confused for singer Ed Sheeran. When asked how often people mix them up, Rupert explained, “It’s kinda 50/50 now. It’s like if someone stops me, it could go either way. I could be Ed or I could be me.”

Ed Sheeran

Ed seems to be in on the joke though, he even had Rupert star in his 2011 “Lego House” music video as a crazed fan impersonating Ed. 😂

Leighton Meester

Honestly, no one would be surprised if you confused the Gossip Girl star with Friday Night Lights star Minka Kelly.

Minka Kelly

Don’t they look so similar? Strangely enough, they starred in The Roommate together. No, not as twins, but as...well...roommates.

Theo James

When Divergent star Theo James was just starting out in Hollywood, he says that he would be regularly mistaken for none other than James Franco.

James Franco

TBH, I totally see it! But Theo says he hasn’t been confused for James in a long time—he *thinks* because he changed his hair. Wise.

Alicia Silverstone

Okay, guys, this one is nuts because the Clueless star basically has a twin running around Hollywood...Are your eyeballs ready to see it?
