Seems like Jeffrey Dean Morgan is Javier Bardem’s doppelganger.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan is undoubtedly a brilliant actor, but have you ever noticed his resemblance to another talented actor, Javier Bardem?

If you've ever mixed up Jeffrey Dean Morgan with Javier Bardem, you're not alone. In a recent video interview with Men's Health, the Walking Dead star shared a hilarious anecdote about the frequent mix-ups he experiences with the Spanish actor.

The video, part of Men's Health's Don't Read The Comments series, features Morgan responding to various comments and questions from fans.

The most hilarious moment was when he was shown a picture from Reddit of himself and Bardem, prompting him to share his experiences of being mistaken for the No Country for Old Men actor.

Morgan, with his signature humor, didn't hold back his amusement. "Oh, y'all are such d*cks," he laughed, looking at the picture of him and Bardem. He then went on to share some of the hilarious encounters he's had due to this mix-up.

"I'd be like at the airport or I could be anywhere, grocery store," he explained. "And I'd literally get tackled by somebody, like speaking Spanish at a hundred miles an hour or being told congratulations on the birth of my daughter."

Yes, you read that right. Morgan has been congratulated on life events that actually happened to Bardem.

But it's not just the fans who are confused. Even the paparazzi have had their mix-up moments. Morgan once unintentionally landed Bardem in hot water during a red carpet event.

As he was making his way down the carpet, the paparazzi, mistaking him for Bardem, started calling out the wrong name. Morgan decided to respond in a playful manner. He turned around and jokingly showed his middle finger at the person who had misidentified him.

However, this lighthearted gesture didn't go as planned. The incident occurred around the same time Bardem was basking in his Oscar glory and Morgan had just joined the cast of Grey's Anatomy. Morgan was attending a party in New York City when the press, mistaking him for Bardem, started shouting "Javier!" incessantly.

Morgan's response, intended as a joke to highlight the mix-up, unfortunately backfired. Bardem was wrongly accused by the press of being rude and unfriendly.

A photo of Morgan's gesture was published in the paper, but with Bardem being wrongly identified as the one making the gesture.
