Palmerin Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 ... has the amazing coincidence that three of its stars, Sydow, Savalas and Pleasence, played Ernst Stavro Blofeld in, respectively, NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, IN HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE, and YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE. Are there other movies in which at least two of its stars played the same role in different movies? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesJazGuitar Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 A good place to start would be to look up all of the actors that have played Sherlock Holmes and then see what other films have 2 or more of those actors in them. After Holmes I would move on to Lincoln. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Errol Flynn and Ronald Reagan appeared in a few films together, and both played George Custer at some point; Flynn in They Died With Their Boots On and Reagan in The Santa Fe Trail. Gregory Peck and Laurence Oliver played opposite in The Boys From Brazil, and each played Douglas MacArthur: Peck in MacArthur and Olivier in Inchon. Of course, there were plenty of Karloff-Lugosi pairings, and each played the Frankenstein monster at some point. I'm sure we can find plenty of results for horror stars. Can anyone think of any actresses who fill the bill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
