Ha! Rene Descartes and Michael Parkinson, that's a good one. There needs to be a new thread now, celebrities who look like famous people from the past, especially in old portraits.

Julian Barratt and Giles Coren. Surprised that one hasn't been mentioned...

Noticed it myself, but then came across other several people saying the same thing.

(That might have been after Googling to see if anyone else shared my opinion though, can't remember now. )
Oh yeah, you can really see that too, and I'd seen the actor but not noticed his resemblance to Giles.

Years ago I used to think that Mark E Smith , from The Fall ( the band, not the TV series) looked a bit like Michael Parkinson. Less so these days now he has got older and lost all his teeth😬

I think Giles is gorgeous, but not at all Julian. Weird

Natascha McElhone and Kate Winslet looked very alike at one time.

Bit of a random historical one, but the ex Scottish Labour Leader, Jim Murphy, looks like the mummy of Ramesses II.

Anyone thats watching the new WestWorld series and then decides to rewatch the original film will probably see striking similarities between the films main star James Brolin and Christian Bale!

Matthew MacFadyen (Ripper Street) looks like a cross between Brendan Fraser and Brent Spiner (Data from Star Trek NG).

Ron Mael, the keyboard player in Sparks, looks like either Charlie Chaplin or Hitler.

Jennifer lopez in the video for 'baby i love you' (i think thats the right song, its a close up of her face) always reminds me of Vincent from the old 80s tv show 'beauty and the beast'
She reminds me of Kate Hudson facially but I don't think many will agree. If Kate put on a brown wig and wore brown contacts they would be very alike!

The news of Leonard Cohen's death reminded me of another pair of look-a-likes.
Leonard Cohen and Al Pacino.
