Current celebrity counterparts to stars of the bygone era.

Natasha Lyonne = Mae West

Angelina Jolie = Audrey Hepburn

Tom Hanks = Jimmy Stewart George Clooney = Cary Grant (albeit a very shallow, somewhat vapid Cary Grant).

If we're just going by physical looks, the older Diane Lane gets, the more she looks like Natalie Wood.

Matt Bomer looks like Jeffrey Hunter

Chris Pine looks like a young Robert Wagner

G is looking a lot like Charles Laughton.

OP, are we just going by physical appearance or general vibe /personality?

Glenn and Edna May Oliver

Dreama Walker looks like forgotten 40s starlet Leslie Brooks

Timothy Hutton looks earily similar to Jim Hutton

And Alan Hale Jr. was the spittin’ image of Alan Hale Sr.

Now - Ed Begley Jr. and Ed Begley - THERE’S a real head scratcher

Garbo -- Kate Hudson

Stanwyck -- the Olsen girls

Davis -- Emma Watson

Ryan -- Gosling

Lancaster -- Pattison

I think Jolie is more like Elizabeth Taylor (eternal home wrecker temptress) than Audrey Hepburn.

Octavia Spencer is Hattie McDaniel.

M is looking a lot like Rin Tin Tin.

SJP=Mr. Ed

George Clooney and Cary Grant

Marie Dressler = Kathy Bates

Gloria Grahame was sort of body dysmorphic and became plastic surgery obsessed. She also stuck cotton up under her lip to make it look 'fuller,' which didn't really work and made her speech sound strange. Kissing scenes could be a miss, with the cotton being dislodged and slobber released to her co-star. She was an odd duck, Gloria.

If you can see past the difference in era and types, Jon Bernthal looks facially very much like Chico Marx.

R19 she also seduced her 13 year old stepson, Tony Ray, when she was married to Nicholas Ray, who divorced her, then some years later she married grownup Tony and had a couple kids with him.

Lindsay Lohan = Barbara Payton

Barbara Payton’s is just about the trashiest, most depressing slide into $5 skid row whoredom Hollywood has to offer : (

(Present company excluded, of course...)

Barbara Payton

Britney Spears and Frances Farmer

J.Lo seems like she's trying to break Liz Taylor's record for most marriages

Kristin Chenoweth is the new Jennifer Darling. She looks and sounds so much like fembot Callahan in The Boy Next Door.

[quote] If you can see past the difference in era and types, Jon Bernthal looks facially very much like Chico Marx.

Jai Courtney looks facially very much like his brother, Harpo.

Kate Winslet is the new Joan Crawford

I actually think Kate is the newer version of Elizabeth Taylor. Both played rebellious rich girls when they were young before turning into gritty roles that flirt with vulgarity as they aged.

Any Adams and Doris Day (I'm talking about their career and general demeanor, not necessarily physical resemblance )

Fanny Brice and Frances McDormand

Chris Evans....Ricky Nelson

Drake (Bell) & Josh (Peck) often refer to themselves as a Millennial Martin & Lewis, but I don't know whether forcing one's own comparison counts.

Scarlett Johanson is the new Barbara Stanwyk

Janelle Monáe could successfully play Lena Horne in a biopic, although I'll admit she's not a dead ringer.
