Can you tell these two radiant red heads apart?Jason Merritt/Getty Images, Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images Everyone likely has a doppelgänger, including celebrities. Insider rounded up pairs of stars who often get mistaken for each other or who fans believe look alike.

Pairings include Halsey and Millie Bobby Brown, Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas, and Sarah Hyland and Mila Kunis. We all likely have a doppelgänger in the world somewhere. And that’s not limited to just everyday people who are running into their look-alikes.

 Celebrities do, too. Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard get mistaken for each other all the time. Fans are convinced others share such a resemblance that they must have been separated at birth.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re experiencing déjà vu, these pairs of celebrities may be the reason you’re seeing double. 1. Sarah Hyland and Mila KunisSarah Hyland is on the left while Mila Kunis is on the right.

FeatureFlash / ShutterstockThe “Modern Family” and “Ted” actresses say they get mistaken for the other all the time. Upon meeting each other in December 2010 at a Nylon party, the two decided they’d pretend to be each other in public. “She came up to me and said she gets called me all the time too,” Hyland told InStyle.

“She said that sometimes she pretends she’s me because it makes her feel young. I asked if I could pretend to be her next time somebody asks me if I’m her, and she said OK. “2.

Amy Adams and Isla FisherAmy Adams and Isla Fisher. Getty Images / Shutterstock, s_bukleyDespite the eye color difference, the “Arrival” and “Bachelorette” actresses get confused often.  Fisher joked about the duo’s striking resemblance in her cover story with Allure in January 2009.

“If ‘Shopaholic’ is a hit, then it was Isla Fisher in the movie,” said Fisher. ” . .

. and if it doesn’t work out, it was Amy Adams. ” Fisher used Adams’ photo in her Christmas card one year and fooled both family and friends.

 3. Liam Neeson and Ralph FiennesRalph Fiennes and Liam Neeson are good friends who get mistaken for one another. Neilson Barnard/Getty ImagesNeeson has said people often confuse the “Harry Potter” and “Taken” stars.

That shouldn’t be too much of a surprise since the two have starred in multiple films alongside each other (“Schindler’s List,” “Wrath of the Titans”). The only difference is that Fiennes usually plays the bad guy while Neeson’s the hero.  “He is one of my best, best, dearest friends.

I keep getting fans and stuff mixing me up with Ralph because we have very similar profiles,” Neeson said on The Jonathan Ross Show in 2014. “So I’ve been complimented on winning a Tony Award for my Hamlet, he’s been complimented on the ‘Taken’ movies. “You can watch Neeson discuss their similarity more here.

 4. Natalie Portman and Keira KnightleyKeira Knightley was Natalie Portman’s double in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. “Getty Images / Simon James, ShutterstockShort, long, curly, or straight hair, Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman look strikingly similar no matter how you pair them.

 The two look so similar, Knightley played Portman’s double, Sabé, in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. ” 5. Katy Perry and Zooey DeschanelDon’t tell Zooey Deschanel she looks like the pop star.

AP / Getty Images The “New Girl” actress was initially kind of frustrated when fans confused the two. “It’s a little bit annoying, to be totally blunt,” Deschanel told MTV back in 2009. “The only similarity that we have is that we look a little bit alike.

“The actress has since appeared to warm up to the similarity.  “I was relieved because everyone kept saying ‘this girl looks so much like you,'” she told Letterman in November 2012. “And then I met her and I was like, ‘Thank God she’s attractive!’ I was worried she was gonna be an unattractive person.

“6. Will Ferrell and Chad SmithWill Ferrell (left) and Chad Smith welcomed the fact they look alike onNBCThe comedian and Red Hot Chili Pepper drummer know they look so similar that they took their rivalry to “Jimmy Fallon” in 2014 in a drum-off. The pair even dressed alike.

Rodriguez/Getty ImagesThe actresses are well aware that fans get them mixed up. “We did ‘Help’ together and that was the first time we like grabbed each other and said, ‘Let’s look in the mirror,'” Chastain told Jimmy Fallon in 2015. “And we looked at our faces side by side and we were like, ‘Okay, we look alike.

‘”Chastain recalled how she was mistakened for the “Jurassic World” star later and how she sometimes just goes with it.  The two are good sports about it though and have tried to clear up all the confusion.  Howard made a short dubsmash clip where she let’s people know who’s who.

It caught the attention of Chastain who shared it on Instagram. In May 2015, Chastain shared a funny image on Twitter poking fun at how people can’t tell them apart. 8.

“It’s like, ‘Oh my god, your show on TV is amazing, Ms. Washington. ‘ So it’s sort of like .
