Once again, we took a little break. Cassi was roaming about in a car for a few days, and Crissi just had a headache.
We’ll be back next week though, nice and refreshed. Thanks for sticking around!
Do Twin actors have an advantage?
Sometimes I wish our mom had auditioned us to be baby actors when we were young. We could be the Olsen twins.
In Hollywood, those are the most common roles for twins and triplets – a single role for multiple children. There are is also the advantage of less competition for adult twins in the acting biz.
This article starts off focusing on twins as actors, but quickly switches to the (much more interesting) topic of twin relationships and culture. Also interesting: why do all the twin roles go to single actors who play both parts? Parent Trap, The Prestige, and most recently, the Spiderwick Chronicles.
By the way, the article is now archived because it’s older than 7 days, so to read the whole thing, you have to pay money. We’ll keep looking for a free version.
