10 pairs of domestic and Hollywood stars who are very similar

They say that every person on Earth somewhere has a double that looks like him like two drops of water.

Russian celebrities are no exception, and some of them found “twins” not just anywhere, but in Hollywood.

10 Gennady Khazanov – Robert De Niro

If you look at the photographs of the young Khazanov and De Niro, then you can’t call them twins – they are too different.

However, after 60 years, the features of both celebrities began to change in such a way that one began to look a lot like the second. Gennady Khazanov is currently 73 years old, and De Niro is 75.

Despite the fact that professionally they went different ways – one became a famous comedian in the CIS, and the second became an Oscar-winning actor, they still have one thing in common: both do not stop leading an active lifestyle with age. Nobody is going to retire: Khazanov continues to appear on TV and perform in the theater, also doing politics, and his Hollywood double is still acting in films.

9. Garik Bulldog Kharlamov – Matt Damon

These two people in their youth were more alike than the previous couple, but still reached their maximum similarity as they got older. Although aging is not exactly the right word, since Kharlamov is only 38 years old, and Damon is 10 years older.

Damon is one of the most sought-after actors in Hollywood, and Garik is in Russia. Films with the participation of “Bulldog” are not of high quality, but this does not detract from his talent as a comedian: in this regard, he is definitely one of the best on the domestic stage.

8. Sati Casanova — Leticia Sabatella

This pair of doubles is not as widely known as the others, because if Sati Casanova does not need to be introduced, then Leticia Sabatella is known only to fans of Brazilian TV shows.

She is 11 years older than Sati, but when looking at her photographs, this figure does not fit in her head and looks like Leticia is the same age as Casanova. In her youth, she was the sex symbol of Brazil, so soap operas with her participation could interest even men.

7. Yulia Kovalchuk – Sarah Jessica Parker

Probably the most interesting couple on our list for at least a few reasons. Firstly, this is the age difference: Kovalchuk is 36 years old, and Sarah is 54. Secondly, Yulia has always been and remains one of the most attractive singers in Russia, and Sarah Jessica Parker, although she achieved worldwide fame, was never considered a beauty.

However, looking at their comparison photo, the resemblance immediately catches the eye.

6. Ekaterina Vilkova – Amanda Seyfried

Ekaterina Vilkova and Amanda Seyfried are not only similar in appearance, they are also colleagues: both became successful actresses. Of course, Vilkova is known only to the domestic audience, and Seyfried is recognized all over the world, but these are details.

In addition, they are almost the same age: Amanda is a year younger than Vilkova, so none of them will age faster. This means that they will most likely remain doppelgangers for the rest of their lives.

5. Valeria — Cynthia Nixon

And again, almost the same age, only this time the Hollywood “twin” is 2 years older than the Russian singer. It should be noted that they are united by one more, rather sad circumstance: the peak of fame for both has already passed.

Yes, Valeria is still known, as are her songs, and Cynthia is still remembered by millions of Sex and the City fans, but in recent years, none of them have done anything significant for their career.

4. Artem Tkachenko — Adrien Brody

Adrien Brody is 9 years older than his Russian acting colleague, but this difference is unlikely to catch anyone’s eye. Thanks to his talent, which brought him the Oscar, Golden Globe and many other awards, he became the idol of millions.

It is quite possible that Artem Tkachenko himself admires his “twin”. Although he has not yet conquered the world audience, he is a noticeable figure in Russian cinema: he starred in Gogol and several other TV series, including Alien Blood, Sparta.

3. Maria Sittel – Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

If you do not take into account the undoubted external similarity of these women, then otherwise they have nothing in common.

Maria is a well-known TV presenter in our country, who now hosts the news program Vesti on the Rossiya TV channel, and before that, Special Opinion on Radio Russia and Special Correspondent on the Rossiya TV channel. In 2005, she became the winner of the TEFI award in the nomination “News Program Host”.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is the exact opposite of her professionally. She gained popularity in 1994 when she won the Miss World pageant. This victory opened the doors for her to the world of Indian cinema, which she confidently entered, becoming a real star not only in Bollywood, but also beyond.

So, she became the first Indian woman, whose wax figure appeared in Madame Tussauds, and was also a member of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival. If she hadn’t turned down her role in the film Troy with Brad Pitt at the time, she would have had every chance to conquer Hollywood as well.

2. Ekaterina Klimova – Kristen Wiig

The star of the dilogy “We are from the Future” and “We are from the Future 2” Ekaterina Klimova is 4 years younger than Kristen Wiig, and this is the unique case when the difference can be seen with the naked eye. Wiig is certainly an attractive woman, but our Katya is still more beautiful.

In terms of professional achievements, Kristen is mainly known as a comedian and screenwriter, and her acting work has rarely been successful. What is worth only a remake of “Ghostbusters” with women in the lead roles, which failed miserably.

1. Evgenia Brik – Jennifer Lopez

Evgenia Brik, although not a star of Russian cinema and television, nevertheless gained some popularity by her 37 years. So, she was nominated for several awards (including the Nika award) for her role in the series Stilyagi, and for her work in the TV movie Podmoskovnaya Elegy, she was awarded the IV Festival of Television Films Flashes in the Best Debut nomination.

Jennifer Lopez has gone much further than her “twins”, having built a successful career not only in films, but also in music. Multimillion-dollar albums, awards and the title of a sex symbol are just the tip of the iceberg.

Considering that Evgenia is 12 years younger than Jennifer, one can wish her to catch up with her counterpart in terms of achievements and popularity in the near future.
