Harry¹ Potter star Daniel Radcliffe and Lord of the Ring's Elijah Wood have been battling public confusion over their identities for years -- but fans struck by their striking similarities aren't quieting down any time soon.

 

“哈利波特”丹尼尔·拉德克利夫和“魔戒使者”伊利亚·伍德神撞脸，多年来一直令公众分辨不清——但面对如此惊人的相似度，粉丝们不淡定了。
 

 

'After watching it switch back and forth² about 3 times.... I'm no longer sure I even know which one is which,' wrote one, as another fan chimed in: 'Does this mean Frodo Baggins and Harry Potter are the same person?'

 

'This is slightly unsettling,' wrote another, while a third added: 'Plot twist: they're the same actor and he has a great make-up artist.'

 

Of course, this is hardly the first time that the two actors have drawn³ comparisons, and both have spoken out about being each other's doppelgänger.

 

'It's because the idea of us is the same,' Daniel explained on Marc Maron's WTF podcast in November. 'We're both kind of short guys with big blue eyes and brown hair. And we did fantasy movies that came out at the same time.'

 

Previously⁴, he revealed that a 'fan' presented him with a photo of Elijah to sign, which he did with the message: 'I am not Elijah Wood.'

 

'If you just come up and say, "Are you Elijah Wood?" I will say no, and I won't tell you who I am,' he added.
