Will Smith and Jaden Smith
This father-and-son duo have looked (and acted) similar from the start, with Jaden clearly taking after his famous Fresh Prince father from a young age. Their doppelgänger status couldn't have been more apparent than in 2013, when the pair starred together in the film After Earth.

Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr.
No, you’re not seeing double. These two are carbon copies of one another – often being mixed up by fans and media alike – it doesn’t help that they also share the same name!

Kirk Douglas and Michael Douglas
While Michael is the spitting image of his late father (who passed away at 103 in 2020), we love this throwback shot of the twinning twosome in 1988 at the 14th annual People’s Choice Awards.

Ice Cube and O’Shea Jackson Jr.
Another father-and-son who share not only the same name (Ice Cube was born O’Shea Jackson) but also some pretty apparent genetic similarities. It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree as far as talent, as Ice Cube’s son O’Shea is carrying on with the family business as a rapper. O’Shea Jackson Jr. also got his acting debut in the 2015 biopic Straight Outta Compton, where he played a younger version of his dad.

Pierce Brosnan and Dylan Brosnan
Talk about a handsome pair! Former James Bond star Pierce Brosnan has definitely distributed his good genes equally amongst all three of his sons. But of all the Brosnan boys, we see it most clearly in Dylan Brosnan, the actor’s 24-year-old model mini-me.

Tom Hanks and Colin Hanks
That signature squint and serious stare: Colin Hanks is a dead ringer for his A-lister dad, Tom. Outside of their physical similarities, Colin is clearly on track to follow in his father’s footsteps with his work as an actor, director and producer, most recently celebrated for his work on the TV show Life in Pieces.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Patrick Schwarzenegger
Actor and model Patrick Schwarzenegger shares more than a job description and last name with his action-star dad — these two look so much alike! Patrick started acting at age 10, developed his own clothing line at 15 and began his modeling career early on. Obviously, dad Arnold also passed down that famous Schwarzenegger work ethic.

David Beckham and Brooklyn Beckham
That swoon-worthy brooding smile! There’s no doubt David Beckham has been forced to share the spotlight — and his legendary heartthrob status — in recent years, as son Brooklyn has captured media attention for his modeling work, having recently shot a campaign for top design house Burberry.

Donald Sutherland and Kiefer Sutherland
If there weren’t so many years between this father-and-son duo, it’d probably be impossible to tell them apart. Thankfully, celebrated actor Donald Sutherland’s long-standing white beard makes it easier.

Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell
Son of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn and brother to Kate and Oliver Hudson, it’s common knowledge that good looks run rampant in this family — and Wyatt is no exception. Of all the Russell kids, it’s no question that Wyatt takes after his handsome dad through and through.

Prince Charles and Prince William
If there was ever a question as to which of the royal princes took after their father, recent years have made it clear: Prince William is a dead-ringer for his father Prince Charles, carrying forward many of the same distinct physical features as his royal dad.
