There are around 50,000 active actors in Hollywood. To think that there are so many look-alikes in such a small number of people is truly fascinating. Take for example Megan Fox and Adriana Lima, Dylan McDermott and David Schwimmer, or Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint.

Even Cillian Murphy and Billie Eilish lookalike, but they are not related either.

In the last few years, the trending “doppelgangers” have been Matt Damon and Jesse Plemons.

Is Jesse Plemons related to Matt Damon?

No, they just look alike. It’s after his debut in Breaking Bad that fans started wondering, “Wait, is that Matt Damon in BB?”

Nope, it’s Jesse Plemons. But we see the resemblance, it’s hard not to. 

Jesse Plemons’ most popular projects are The Irishman (2019), The Battleship (2012), Game Night (2018), and his debut in the TV show Black Mirror.

But, there is no doubt that this promising actor has gained the most popularity after starring in Breaking Bad, one of the most popular TV shows ever. 

He was invited to play the role of Todd once again in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.

After his role in BB, Jesse received his first Primetime Emmy Award nomination and won a Critics’ Choice Award for his role as Ed Blumquist in the popular TV show Fargo

His second Primetime Emmy Award nomination came from his role as Robert Daly in the Netflix hit series Black Mirror. The precise episode is “USS Callister”. 

On the other hand, Matt Damon is an actor who doesn’t really need much of an introduction.
