Double Take

Orlando Bloom and Rupert Friend look a lot alike.

*They both have a connection to Keira Knightley. Bloom starred with her in three of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films, while Friend costarred with her in "Pride & Prejudice" and also dated her.

*** Orlando can be seen in "Elizabethtown", the "Lord of the Rings" films, and the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films. Rupert is best known for his roles in "Pride & Prejudice", "The Young Victoria", and "Cheri".

Fun Shoots

Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, and Jonah Hill do their best impression of the Keira Knightley/Scarlett Johansson/Tom Ford Vanity Fair shoot. Paul Rudd does a great job of capturing the creepiness of Tom Ford.
