We can never get enough of our favorite actors, so when they take on multiple roles in the same film, it's a cause for special celebration. Assigning more than one character to a single actor is both a gamble and a sign of ultimate trust in his or her talent.
Often, the setup is that the characters are twins, which gives an actor the chance to showcase their talent for a range of personalities in one neat package. At other times, the literary motif of the double comes into play, and the performer gets to become the sinister antagonist to his or her own hero. And sometimes, an actor is just given multiple fun characters to make the most of in extravagant fashion.
When it comes to movies with one actor playing multiple roles, film lovers have been given some great material. We've picked some of the very best examples for this list, and hope you enjoy remembering these great performances which were (at least) twice as nice.
