The personal lives of celebrities are not always as smooth as their careers. They also face breakups, infidelity, and heartbreak, even if they are beautiful and successful. But we believe that there is always a bright one after every dark time.
Throughout history, many famous men have embraced fatherhood. But some male stars have not only achieved greatness in their respective fields but also built large families, having 5 or more children. Their legacies reflect a profound commitment to both their professional achievements and their main role in life as dads.
There is a theory that every person on Earth has a living doppelgänger. And even though scientists have proven that it’s nothing more than a myth, some celebrities don’t agree with this scientific conclusion. We compared photos of actors who are often confused with one another, and they really do look alike.
Of course, if a person can’t transform into other people, they will never become a successful actor. But there are geniuses that do it so incredibly well that we can’t even guess who they are until we see their names in the credits. For example, you may watch a film and think that someone’s face looked familiar. And it turns out that the creepy Vladimir Harkonnen from Dune and the smiley scientist Erik Selvig from The Avengers are the same person. This is because Stellan Skarsgård can be very different. Let’s take a look at other talented actors that can change beyond recognition.
As they say, hope springs eternal in the human breast. Including hearts of actors and actresses who’d love to take on the role of an iconic character in some movie or TV series. But sometimes, different circumstances change the odds, and their lives split into “before” and “after.”
At this point, there are so many memorable fictional characters that we’ve lost count. Many of those characters have been portrayed by incredible actors, and some not by one, but multiple. It’s understandable that as generations change, our favorite heroes need newer versions, and we’re all here for it. Check out our list of unforgettable movie characters that have been brought to life by several actors (and some that we’ve yet to witness) over the years.
Sometimes it happens that an actor is perfect for a role except for one thing — their height. In this case, moviemakers have to use different tricks to make their characters look like they are described in the script.
A child doesn’t have to grow up in a nuclear family to be successful. Before LGBTQ+ pride, actor Matt Bomer grew up in an unusual environment, but that didn’t stop him from going after the love of his life. He kept his relationship status a secret for a long time, but when the world found out about his small, happy family, it was a big deal. When he came out as gay during his acceptance speech at the Desert Aids Project in 2012, he shocked the world. There are so many fascinating stories out there, and Bright Side believes that this couple’s story is one of the most interesting, so we looked a bit deeper so that you could discover more about this pair’s extraordinary experience.
Actors in Shakespeare’s day would cross-dress as women in order to play female roles. Nowadays, many actors dress as a different gender to challenge themselves, shake up stereotypes, and stretch the minds of their audience. Though it’s not easy to transform from the feminine to the masculine side or vice versa and nail the role convincingly, these 12 stars were brave enough to do both. In fact, some of them even wound up winning prestigious awards for their efforts.
Actors and actresses are true stars. But in front of cameras, they are people subject to a contract. And behind the scenes, not everything is as idyllic and smooth as one might think, despite the privileges great celebrities often enjoy. These artists have to endure bad working conditions, disagreements about how to approach playing a character, accidents at work, and more. That’s why some actors even terminate their contracts in the middle of a production.
It looks like time and aging are simply helpless when it comes to some celebrities who don’t seem to change as the years go by. Age is just a number, but it’s hard to believe that some of them are over 50. Alyssa Milano, Ben Affleck, Eminem, and Jude Law are just a few of the celebrities who have already celebrated their jubilees.
The 1990s gave us a lot of movies, TV shows, and bands that really handsome men were members of. Remember young Jude Law or Robbie Williams? The mix of charisma and talent helped them and other young men from this list remain idols for many people all around the world.
Some relationships just aren’t meant to be, no matter how much we want them to work. We learn and grow from our relationships and hopefully move on and find the right person. Hollywood stars are no different. They sometimes seem to move on so quickly that we didn’t even know they dated. Bright Side has compiled a list of celebrity couples that almost got away, and we nearly forgot they were ever together. There’s even a bonus feature waiting for you at the end.
Jude Law’s son, Rafferty, gets compared to his dad for their similar looks all the time, and the resemblance was even more striking when he posed for GQ Magazine. He said that, of course, they’re going to look similar since Jude Law is his dad. But there are also those who don’t look at all like their celebrity parents, like Rob Lowe’s sons. Putting pictures of parents and their children side-by-side, especially when they’re at the same age, can make for some fascinating discoveries.
The year 2008 presented us with Twilight — a low-budget movie that suddenly paid off more than 10 times over and introduced a true heartthrob to millions of teenage fans. However, it became a somewhat tricky test for actor Robert Pattinson, the man behind the role of Edward Cullen. He had to work hard to get rid of his romantic image and break the skeptical opinions that he was just a vampire glowing in the sun.
Filmmaking is a complicated process that consists of many stages, while movies themselves might go through enormous changes at each of these stages. What’s more, sometimes it’s difficult to say whether the film has eventually become better after these metamorphosis or not.
Actors’ lives are full of fame and attention: the entire world is literally thrown at their feet, bestowing them with awards and applause. But, unlike what is shown in movies, the path to a bright career is not covered with rose petals. And every celebrity can recall several stories from the set that they would like to forget like a horror movie.
Famous people often go on different talk shows where they tell the audience about funny situations that have happened to them in their everyday lives or while shooting films. When we listened to these stories, we found that our favorite stars are very funny. Especially Robert Downey Jr., who decided to prank his colleagues, but kind of failed.
We know them for their great movie hits, but it turns out they are also the proud moms and dads of a lot of kids. From Bruce Willis who has 5 daughters, to Eddie Murphy who is the father of 10 children, they have their hands full, and you’ll probably be surprised to find some of these celebrities on our list of moms and dads.
The ability to completely transform into a character is a coveted skill for an actor. However, many famous actors have certain types of characters that they often portray. But sometimes, all they need is one out-of-the-ordinary role to push them out of their comfort zone.
It was just recently when Alain Delon, Jude Law, and other actors were breaking the hearts of ladies around the world. It seemed no one could outshine their charm and handsomeness. However, it turned out that a new generation of talented, ambitious and very attractive guys who can easily compete with their parents has grown up and caught our attention!.
It’s unknown why this country is the home of so many talented and charismatic actors. But even the handsome men of Hollywood lose sleep because they know that stars like Kit Harington, Tom Hiddleston, and Ben Barnes all live in the world. And, of course, there are older English actors such as Colin Firth, Gary Oldman, and Jude Law that are also on their minds.
Children see their parents as role models and often imitate their parents. For example, according to this study, a daughter of a nurse is 3.75 times more likely to choose this profession when she gets older. And this doesn’t just apply to ordinary people. The children of celebrities also develop an interest in their parents’ professions from an early age and many of them follow the example of their moms and dads as they grow up.
Modern movies are full of attractive heroes who are incredibly charismatic. Many of them become the focus of both men and women’s dreams for many years. But more often than not, their image on the big screen has very little to do with the actual personalities of these actors.
It's never too late to remember the great things from previous years - and that includes movies worthy of an Oscar nomination.

Let's recall together which movies stand the best chance of winning the coveted golden statue.
After Matthew McConaughey read the Titanic script, he said that he couldn’t act in such a boring film and that the movie was destined to fail. Today, Titanic is a classic film and McConaughey has probably regretted his decision at least several times. Many actors feel for Matthew since they’ve also refused to star in films that could have made them more popular and famous.

The famous saying “Like father like son” no longer holds any significance as this new generation is keen on making a mark of their own. They no longer want to be associated with the word nepotism, but want their talent to speak for itself. There are many celebrity kids starring in roles in various industries, irrespective of their parents’ position.
