Actors as Children and the Kids That are Supposed to Look Like Them
Many movies have flashback scenes to when the characters were younger, but do the child actors who play those roles look anything like the Hollywood stars when they were younger?
I was watching the movie Constantine last week and it got to the scene where young John Constantine (played by Quinn Buniel) is hiding on the bus. It was at that moment that I thought, how much do you think that kid looks like Keanu Reeves (who plays grown up Constantine) did at the same age? So I went online and found some pictures of celebrities as kids, and also the pictures of child actors who lay their young characters. What I is realized is that most of them are way off!
Keanu Reeves (Played by Quinn Buniel in Constantine)
They seem to have nailed the nose, but the eyebrows are way off.
Likeness rating: 7/10
Leonardo DiCaprio (Played by Jacob Davich in The Aviator)
The stupid look is all there, but the hair colour is way off. Maybe young Leonardo was bleaching?
Likeness rating: 5/10
Bruce Willis (Played by Chandler Lindauer in Pulp Fiction)
The age difference here has something to do with it as Bruce is a teen in this picture, but you can tell that doesn’t save the difference in head shape. Also notice how skinny Bruce was back in the day, it has nothing to do with Chandler, but he got jacked!
Likeness rating: 4/10
Tom Hanks (Played by Michael Conner Humphreys in Forest Gump)
Again Tom is much older than Michael in these pictures, but the resemblance still is a long way off.
Likeness rating: 4/10
Kurt Russel (Played by Jimmy Baker in Soldier)
This one has a chance, both boys have Prince Charles ears, but that’s where the comparison stops. A hair cut would boost the resemblance.
Likeness Rating: 5/10
