There’s always been something mysterious about identical twins, especially since Hollywood so often portrays them as creepy ..

Dear God, No!
But of course, there’s nothing inherently strange about identical twins (well, except for that whole “communicating telepathically” thing), and to prove it, here are six examples of identical twins who brought us double the fun over the years.
Aaron and Shawn Ashmore
Canadian twins Aaron and Shawn (they celebrate their 36th birthday today) have managed to have separate and distinct careers, with Shawn best known for his role as Iceman in the X-Men films, as well as recurring roles on Animoprhs and The Following.
He’s also patriotic.
Aaron is best known for playing a gay teen in Prom Queen: The Marc Hall Story, as well as his recurring role as Jimmy Olsen in Smallville, a recurring role on Veronica Mars, his current co-starring turn on Sfyfy’s Killjoys, and of course, as beloved gay agent Steve Jinks on Warehouse 13.
Remember when he was split in two, uptight Steve and super-gay Steve? They missed an opportunity by not letting Shawn play one of them, but it was still fun.
Get More:
Max and Charlie Carver
27-year-old Max and Charlie got their start playing the Scavo twins on Desperate Housewives, and went on to stardom playing the straight and gay twins Aiden and Ethan on Teen Wolf. Most recently they twinned it up again on HBO’s The Leftovers.
Max is patriotic.
And Charlie made as swoon as Ethan.
James and Oliver Phelps
29-year-old James and Oliver played Fred and George Weasley in the Harry Potter films, and like their co-stars (Hello, Matthew Lewis), have matured quite nicely.
Dylan and Cole Sprouse
Speaking of maturing nicely, 23-year-old former Disney Tween Kings Dylan and Cole attended college after their Suite Life years, and are now looking to return to show business.
And we know that at least Dylan is active on social media.
Harry And Luke Treadaway
29-year-old Brits Harry and Luke made their debut playing conjoined twins in a punk rock band in Brothers In The Head, but they have also managed separate careers.
Harry starred in the movies Control, Honeymoon and The Disappeared, and is currently starring as Victor Frankenstein on Showtime’s Penny Dreadful
Luke has had his biggest successes on the stage, but did have a memorable turn as Prokopion in Clash Of The Titans.
Luke and Harry reunited for 2009’s stage production of Over There, in which they spent much of the running time in their skivvies.
40-year-old gay twins Gary and Larry are best known for their modeling and reality work (including Fear Factor, Wipeout, and their documentary Hollywood To Dollywood), but they have dabbled in acting, including roles in Dawson’s Creek, Zoolander, The Patriot, and Spider-Man.
Here they are talking about being bullied in school, and how they got through it together.
And here’s their Doritos commercial with Leslie Jordan.
