When basing a movie or TV show off of a true story, it’s important to have all the characters look as similar to the person they’re playing as possible. It can be tricky to perfectly recreate someone’s look or mannerisms, but I guess that’s why actors make so much money, right?
Series like American Horror Story and Mind Hunter both have been recognized for creating perfect lookalikes for their villains that are seriously bone-chilling.
Usually casting directors don’t get praised for doing a great job finding the perfect actor to play a part, but someone on Twitter started a thread of the best casting they’ve ever seen and people quickly joined in to share their favorites.
