There are movies and some characters that leave behind a mark so strong that they go down in the history of cinematic star performances. Actors, too, at times, find the process of absorbing one character after the other complex and exhausting. How would it be easy on us, the audience, then? We get so attached to seeing certain characters that we simply cannot recognize them when we see them play other roles.
For example, did you know, cute-little Mr. Tumnus from The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the witch, and the wardrobe were also the bald Professor Xavier in the X-Men Saga? Take a look at some more such actors who we probably failed to recognize!
