This week, we discuss two films featuring one actor playing two identical characters.
The first is The Double (2013), an adaptation of the Fyodor Dostoyevsky novella of the same name. The film, directed by comedian Richard Ayoade, stars Jesse Eisenberg as colleagues Simon James and James Simon.
The second is Double Impact (1991), starring Jean-Claude Van Damme as identical twins Chad and Alex. The film made around $30 million and was filmed mostly on location in Hong Kong.
