How so? They look less related to me than the Brothers Affleck.

I agree. I think Charlie looks a lot more like his dad used to (OT, heh - one of my favorite ZAZ jokes: "I loved you in WALL STREET!") than Emilio ever did, but I never thought they much looked like each other.

Hell, I think Balthazar Getty looks more like Charlie than Emilio does.

Here, for instance, I see them as very similar from chin, up through mouth to nose. And their heights and builds aren't dissimilar.

Now, Affleck brothers have a comparable similarity (although I think it's lesser) around the nose and mouth, but I think the shape of their heads and dissimilar builds distracts from it.

Also, it becomes glaringly apparent (to me) when they're both moving/speaking.

While searching for those headshots, I ran across the French_Canadian poster for These Girls, featuring shirtless DB.

Why do I imagine that preliminary audition involving the casting director saying, "Now, this script has some scenes that may be a bit more risqué than you're used to..." followed by David exclaiming, "do I get to be naked the whole time?!?"

My, but he's pretty all shirtless and holding a baby. If someone could photoshop those pictures together with some of the pictures of Vin Diesel shirtless with a baby in his otherwise worthless Disney thingumabob, I might perish of joy.

I don't know if it'd be possible for me to watch a movie with DB and Caroline Dhavernas together and successfully detach them from their Whedon and Minearverse personae. Either one separately, yes, but I'm not so sure about together.

Speaking of Vin, what's up with the hair?

ETA, no wonder he shaves his head - with hair he kinda looks like Jeremy Piven's bulkier brother.

I wonder if that was his hair.

Huh. That's kind of wrong.

But hey, isn't that Peter Dinklage sitting next to him? Because I could go for a movie with Vin Diesel and Peter Dinklage.

I wonder if that was his hair.

Oh, it totally wouldn't surprise me that he's just wearing a piece for the role, but it took me aback when I saw a poster for it in the Boston Phoenix today. I was all "Vin Diesel's the star? Is that him?!???!??"

He's 'acting' this time.

I hope it goes well. I have no reason to doubt he can't act, but he has such a dumb-lug rep based on what seems to be not much more than the size of his biceps, that I can't help but root for him.
