u/Otherwise-Course-15 27d ago

Oh wait. Thatā€™s interesting. Iā€™ve never seen this one.

u/pinklavalamp 27d ago

That side by side is FREAKING me out!

u/DelaRoad 26d ago

When they cast The Dark Knight Rises, there were rumors that JGL was playing the Joker (taking over Ledgerā€™s role)

I have a friend who briefly dated a guy and couldnā€™t figure out if he looked like Heath Ledger or Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Now I see why she couldnā€™t settle on one šŸ¤£

My dad as a teen was the spitting image of Heath Ledger, such a weird picture to find when Heath was in all the romantic movies..I thought my step mom had a creepy thing for the real Heath.

u/jrubes_20 27d ago

Are you really not going to show the people a picture?!

u/clarissaswallowsall 27d ago

I don't have it šŸ„² it was a Polaroid and I haven't seen either stepmom or my dad in 17 years. It looked just like knights tale era Heath though with a darker auburn hair color. Same curls and smirk, it was embarrassing at the time because my friend who found it with me had such a thing for Heath and made goo goo eyes at my then bald dad for a few days šŸ˜…

I have a great uncle who looked just like Titanic era Leonardo DiCaprio in his younger years. There's one photograph of him, and now that grandma has died, no idea who in the family has it, and I may never see it again.

If I ever do find it, I'll post it to oldschoolcool so quick.

But yeah, when my cousin and I found it at grandma's, we kinda did the same as your friend.

But then we realized that is our great uncle, he's not alive anymore, let alone still looks like current Leo, and plus, tho we may be in WV, we were not Albamanians, damn it. So back in the album it went.

Was his name Mike? Bc years ago I couldnā€™t figure out which of those two my ex bf looked like and I also realized itā€™s both! Lol

u/milkradio 27d ago

I've thought this since 10 Things!

u/MissAssassinLady 26d ago

I thought they were brothers at first!

u/isthistherealcaesars 27d ago

Iā€™ve never seen this before and always thought Heath was so freaking stunning but never thought JGL was. Why is that so weird to see now?!

15

u/mel_on_knee 27d ago

Me too. I think it's a size/stature with a combo of personality.

u/vanderBoffin 26d ago

I thought the reverse and this is weirding me out big time.

u/thepinkseashell The legislative act of my pussy 26d ago

Same, I had such a crush on JGL but I have always preferred brown hair to blonde so maybe that's my excuse for liking one more than the other lol

u/ultrav90s Heinous bitch, is the term used most often 26d ago

Me too. Literally in love with Heath Ledger but JGL is just meh. Maybe itā€™s because Heath is more charming, stronger jaw nicer hair etc

u/ConflictExpensive892 26d ago edited 26d ago

I'm convinced it's the accent. In my early 20s, I had a boyfriend from New Zealand who looked a bit like Heath, and the accent made him even 10x hotter.

u/ultrav90s Heinous bitch, is the term used most often 26d ago

OMG YES forgot to add that, his accent is literally the best

13

u/alligator124 27d ago

I have said this for YEARS! Everyone's always like, "nah, not that much!", but YES! Yes, that much!

2

u/IForgetEveryDamnTime 26d ago

Nah, still not that much honestly, Heath had a much wider face and stronger jaw, that half&half image is playing some fuckery to increase the similarities.

u/mrclean808 27d ago

Ten things I hate about you was hard to watch cause I couldn't get over the fact that those two and Julia Stiles looked like they could be siblings.

3

u/Nincomsoup 26d ago

The two guys looked so much more like siblings than the supposed sisters did in that movie

9

u/JumpiestSuit 27d ago

Now Iā€™m just sad about Heath. What a beautyā€¦.

5

u/grntplmr 27d ago

I remember speculation after The Dark Knight that JGL would take over as Joker

2

u/Chronocidal-Orange 26d ago

Yeah I was way into the fandom at the time and people were pretty convinced he was the recast. Not sure JGL could've done it acting-wise though.

u/CanIGetAShakeWThat43 27d ago

Oh interesting. Never thought this. But yeah uncanny.

u/ultrav90s Heinous bitch, is the term used most often 26d ago

They look so alike but so not alike at the same time. Theyā€™re both Aries Risings. And I have such a big crush on Heath but not as much on JosephšŸ˜­

u/littleboss12 26d ago

Ok but JGL with long hair is doing something to me ā€¦ šŸ‘ļøšŸ«¦šŸ‘ļø

u/Throwaway20101011 27d ago

I had a crush on these 2 at separate times. Joseph on 3rd Rock from the Sun and years later, Heath on A Knightā€™s Tale. Years later, after Heath passedā€¦I noticed Joseph grew up to look very similar to Heath. I guess this is subconsciously my type.

3

u/SilenceQuiteThisL0UD 27d ago

I always thought this, immediately, God they're both so incredible! šŸ’”

u/Next-Transition-525 27d ago

And then people theorize that Avril Lavigne has been swapped out for a doppelganger while THIS exists????????

1

u/jrich7720 27d ago

You can add Harry Shum Jr. to this pile. When I first watched Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, I thought, "Damn! Joseph Gordon-Levitt still looks like he's 25!" lol

1

u/mstrss9 26d ago

Iā€™ve never considered this but omg

1

u/weirdogirl144 26d ago

They look so similar

1

u/Due_Alfalfa_6739 26d ago

I always thought he looked like Leo, for some reason.

1

u/Ultimatedream 26d ago

These twins (Marcus and Martinus) looks exactly like them as well, it's crazy.

1

u/ms-e-mo 26d ago

I always thought Seong Gi-Hun (guy from Squid Game) and Joseph Gordon Levitt looked alike

u/echoings 25d ago

no way. I KNEW something was up!
