You would assume that anyone that’s hired as a stunt double would be the same gender as the actor or actress they’re portraying, right? Well, not always. Back in 2012, J-Lo found herself with a male stunt double while filming her music video for Follow the Leader. Although the change of gender is a surprise, it’s clear to see why the man was picked. He shares some remarkable similarities to the famous singer, from the shape of his face to all that hair!

Johnny Depp is known for playing a wide variety of characters, but Captain Jack Sparrow is probably one of his best-known. The suave pirate was the star of five Pirates of the Caribbean films, all of which were filled with intense action scenes from epic sea fights to extravagant escape sequences. While Depp was likely involved with some of them, most of the legwork probably went to his stunt double, Tony Angelotti. We imagine the man spent a lot of time in hair and makeup.
