Some famous pairs of celebrities look very much alike, and it's tough to tell them apart. The actress from "I, Tonya" and the actor from "My Name Is Earl" seem like they could be sisters, even though there's a 13-year age gap between them, with Pressly being the older one.

"We do look very similar," Pressly said when she first met Robbie. "When she was in the movie 'I, Tonya,' I went to the premiere... and everyone was talking about how we look like each other, so I was excited to meet her and said, 'If I look like you, I'm okay with that.'"

Bell talked to TheA.V. Club and mentioned that people often confuse her with Peet, whom she described as "very attractive."

I thought she mistook me for Lucy [Hale]. After taking the photo, she began talking about my projects, and I realized she actually thought I was Selena [Gomez]. I decided to go along with it because I didn't want to disappoint her," she added.

The actors from "Friday Night Lights" and "Gossip Girl" are actually best friends in real life, and people often mix them up because they look so similar.

Shipka and Grace really look alike, to the point that Grace was picked to play Shipka's younger sister in one episode of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

Okay, this might sound a bit funny, but once you notice how much actor Jon Hamm looks like the famous Italian model Fabio, you won't be able to forget it.

These two lovely actresses look so much alike that they were picked to play a mother and daughter in the movie "Stuck in Love" in 2011.

Model Kaia Gerber looks a lot like her stunning mom, supermodel Cindy Crawford. But she also bears a striking resemblance to another beautiful celebrity, actress Rachel Bilson from "The OC" and "Hart of Dixie."

These two beautiful people have the same strong jawline and striking blue eyes.

Because they look so much alike, it's not shocking to find out that Bomer from Doom Patrol was considered as one of the actors for the role of Superman. However, in the end, Cavill got the part.

These two brown-haired actresses resemble each other so much that Hyland even mentioned to InStyle Magazine that they've agreed it's okay for them to pretend to be each other.

Do you have any evidence that shows Kris Humphries and Taylor Lautner are not the same person? We're curious to see it.

These two red-haired actresses look so much alike that even Ron Howard, who is an Academy Award-winning director and Howard's father, once confused Jessica Chastain for his own daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard.

Bryce Dallas Howard said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, "It's true. It's true. And he was really surprised. At first, he said, 'You two really look so much alike.' I mean, of course, I'm very pleased, so it's wonderful."

Michael Cera, known for roles in "Arrested Development" and "Juno," often gets mistaken for another curly-haired actor, Jesse Eisenberg from "The Social Network." It happens quite a lot, and it's not surprising.

"I ran into Jesse on the street one time, and he told me that he gets mistaken for me every day," Cera shared with the New York Post. "People think he's me."

These two wonderful actresses look so similar that even the official Twitter account of the Golden Globes Awards once made a big mistake and mixed them up (and later said sorry).

Both actresses have also been the main stars of two successful TV shows that were inspired by telenovelas: Rodriguez in "Jane the Virgin" and Ferrera in "Ugly Betty."

Zachary Quinto from "American Horror Story" and Eli Roth from "Inglorious Basterds" look so similar that it's easy to mix them up.

Fortunately, in recent years, Eli Roth has mostly been working behind the camera, directing and producing, so the chances of confusing him with Zachary Quinto are getting smaller.

The two good-looking actors with strong jawlines are frequently compared to each other. In 2015, they even worked together on "American Horror Story: Hotel."

According to the actors, the people working on set often got them mixed up because they looked so much alike, just like many of us do.

Fisher and Adams, both red-haired actresses, look so much alike that people often mix them up. During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Fisher made a funny PSA to remind viewers that she is not Amy Adams.

She jokingly said, "We have completely different names, so we're definitely not the same person."

Both actresses appeared together on the '90s cult classic show "Party of Five." However, at that time, Chabert was a child, so the similarities between them weren't as noticeable.

As time passed, their similarities became more and more obvious. In 2006, Chabert had a guest role on Hewitt's show, "The Ghost Whisperer," and viewers couldn't help but notice how much they looked alike.

Portman and Knightley started their acting careers as kids in the 1990s. In 1999, Knightley got a small part in "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" because she looked so much like the lead actress, Portman.

"I've been mistaken for Natalie Portman," Keira Knightley admitted during an interview on The Late Late Show. "I mean, I get confused with Natalie Portman quite a bit."

These two actors look so much alike that it's quite surprising, and they seem to be aware of it. When Ian Somerhalder appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show, he shared a funny story about meeting Rob Lowe at a Golden Globes party:

"He walked up to my wife," Ian Somerhalder said, "She had never met him before. He held her face and said, 'This is what you're going to be looking at in 15 years'." And we have to agree, that's not a bad face to look at!

Australian actress Teresa Palmer started her Hollywood career with "The Grudge 2" in 2006, and fans quickly noticed that she looked a lot like the star of "Twilight."

"I've been mistaken for her on the street," Teresa Palmer said to MTV, "and I've just gone ahead and signed her name. I thought, 'You know what, whatever, I'll just sign her name,' because the person was so excited and I decided to just play along with it."

Whether you see them in black and white or color, comedian Dane Cook and "Pitch Perfect" star Skylar Astin look almost identical.

A few years ago, Skylar Astin posted a picture of himself and Dane Cook on his Twitter account. He jokingly captioned it, "We don't see it," suggesting that they don't think they look alike, even though they do.

How much do these two resemble each other? They have blonde hair, heart-shaped faces, big smiles, and they really seem like they could be sisters who got separated. Plus, their last names are similar too!

In recent times, de Rossi has a short pixie haircut, so she doesn't look exactly like de Mateo anymore, but they still have very similar facial features.

SNL comedian John Mulaney is frequently confused with Grant Gustin, the actor who plays The Flash. It's easy to see why, as they both have youthful and handsome appearances.

On Late Night with Seth Meyers, John Mulaney talked about how he often gets mixed up with Grant Gustin. He mentioned that when he complained to his wife about it, she jokingly told him to be grateful because he's being compared to a good-looking 28-year-old actor (while Mulaney is 10 years older).

These former E! Channel stars are one of the most famous look-alike pairs on TV, and they often make jokes about it themselves.

Even McHale's own son notices how much they look alike. McHale shared, "When my son would see Ryan Seacrest on TV, my wife would ask, 'Hey Eddie, who's on the TV right now?' And he'd say, 'Daddy.' Ryan is a good-looking guy, so I take it as a nice compliment. Even though Ryan is shorter, around 4'11", I still appreciate it."
