James and Oliver are identical twin brothers who are best known for playing twin brothers, Fred and George Weasley in ‘Harry Potter’. Although the role wasn’t so big, the popularity of ‘Harry Potter’ garnered them a lot of love and attention. Considering the fact that the boys had no prior acting experience, it’s pretty impressive that they ended up getting cast in the role and appearing in the entire ‘Harry Potter’ film franchise.
Because the boys and many of the other actors were so young during the filming of HP, they were tutored on set during the filming so that they could keep up with school. Nowadays, James and Oliver split their time between Santa Monica, California, and their home in the UK. When they aren’t acting as wizards, they enjoy golfing and traveling around the world to attend different sporting events.
Albert and Allen Hughes
Albert and Allen Hughes, or more commonly known as the Hughes brothers, are film directors and producers. They are known for creating twisted, violent films, like 'Dead Presidents', 'American Pimp', and 'The Book of Eli'. Allen Hughes also directed a film on his own, 'New York, I Love You'.
The Hughes brothers were born in Detroit. They had a supportive mother who gifted them with a video camera when they were twelve. The boys would spend their spare time as kids making videos together. During their senior year of high school, the brothers decided to drop out in order to pursue directing careers. They started by directing music videos for Tupac Shakur and Tone Loc. They later moved on to directing feature films. Since 2004 Albert has been living in the Czech Republic. He stated back in 2013 that he and his brother are in “a weird dance right now.” We hope that for the love of family, they’ve reconciled their differences!
Kiefer Sutherland and Rachel Sutherland
Kiefer Sutherland and his twin sister were born into a family of successful actors. In fact, Kiefer’s debut film was in Max Dugan Returns, a film in which his father also starred. Kiefer has experienced a very successful acting career, starring in shows like '24' and films like 'A Few Good Men' and 'A Time to Kill'. Thanks to a successful career, Kiefer has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Over the years, Sutherland has experienced several marriage fails and drunk driving charges.
His sister, meanwhile, hasn’t tried her hand at acting. She has instead preferred to stay behind the camera, working as a post-production supervisor. When you’re born into a family of successful actors, it isn’t difficult to get into the show business and pursue a career, even if it isn’t a role in front of the camera.
Brittany Daniel and Cynthia Daniel
Brittany and Cynthia Daniel played Liz and Jessica Wakefield in the television series, 'Sweet Valley High'. How easy must it have been for the girls to play a pair of twin sisters especially when off the screen they share a very close bond. “Nothing is better when another person really knows you on a soul level,” the pair recently wrote on Instagram.
The twins were born in Gainesville, Florida, and began their careers as models at the young age of 11. It should come as no surprise that they have played the Doublemint Twins in Doublemint gum. They were also in Seventeen and YM.
Kyle and Lane Carlson
The identical Carlson twins, Kyle and Lane, are twin male fashion models. I mean if you can take advantage of the fact that you have a 12 pack between you, then why not? The twins were born in Stillwater, Minnesota, with Lane coming out into the world six minutes earlier. The boys were scouted in 2000 at a mall and were signed with Elite Model Management. They quickly became famous models throughout the world.
They posed with Armani and Abercrombie and Fitch. Some of their photoshoots made them gay icons, despite that both boys are straight. Kyle Carlson has been married to a fellow model, Jessica Hall, since 2008. Lane was also a contestant on NBC’s Fear Factor and even made it to the final round. The twins also had an appearance together on the comedy program, Mobile Home Disaster. Kyle later became a regular guest on Deserving Design on HGTV.
