16 Talented Actors Who Play More Than One Role In The Same Movie

It's not rare for an actor to take responsibility for multiple roles in the process of making a movie. Even this is considered a storied tradition in the cinema: popular performers have become directors while continuing their careers in front of the cameras.
But this isn't the pure purpose of all actors. Probably, playing a wide range of characters on the big screen is what every single actor wants to do. It will be a good chance for them to improve their acting skills. However, portraying multiple characters in a single movie is absolutely a challenge that not all actors dare to take on. Actors need to be really flexible to present the different characteristics and feelings of different characters in a movie.
And some of the actors are so talented that they did this without being spotted by viewers. Definitely, it is a talent, a skill that every actor spends years achieving. Here are some big names who take on multiple roles in one film you never expect there’s a little catch. Be ready for this because you might be shocked!
