Ed Skrein in 'Game of Thrones'

'Game of Thrones' viewers were first introduced to hunky and heroic "Daario" in season 3. His character left quite an impression on fans and left us wanting more when season 4 came! But when his character showed up in season 4, fans were a little confused...

...because he looked entirely different! The role of "Daario" was taken over by just as hunky Michiel Huisman, but the two could not be more different! In season 3 "Daario" was clean-shaven with very long, straight dirty blonde hair, and in season 4 he was bearded with short curly blonde hair! Ed Skrein will only say that the recasting was due to behind the scene "politics."

Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman

Do you remember the kissing scene between Chris Hemsworth, aka "Thor Odinson," and Natalie Portman ("Jane Foster") in the movie 'Thor: The Dark World'? Well, it turns out Hemsworth didn't really kiss Portman in this legendary scene— instead, it was someone much closer to him...

It was actually his beloved wife Elsa Pataky! Thank goodness! Even though Chris was only acting, we as an audience would still be rather mad at Hemsworth for betraying his one true love...

Lisa Robin Kelly in 'That '70s Show'

Lisa Robin Kelly (†2013) was a main member of the hit show 'That '70s Show' as "Laurie Foreman," "Eric's" cruel older sister. The two had the best dynamic and incredibly hilarious repertoire. Kelly unfortunately struggled with newfound fame and turned to alcohol and drugs, so her character was re-cast.

Christina Moore in 'That '70s Show'

For one season Lisa Robin Kelly was written off the show but returned for season 5, which would be her final season as part of the cast. In season 6, Christina Moore was cast in place of Kelly, and Kelly's scenes were reshot with Moore due to Kelly leaving for personal issues. Tragically the beautiful star passed away due to an overdose after an insane rollercoaster of a few years filled with DUI's, arrests, and addiction.

Mónica Cruz replaced her sister Penélope in several 'Pirates of the Caribbean' scenes, as Penélope was pregnant during the filming for 'Pirates of the Caribbean - On Stranger Tides' in 2010. What a stroke of luck that the two gorgeous women look that much alike!
