What do all of these
familiar faces and
famous Hollywood/International/A-list actors all have in common? Well, other than them being rich, famous, and talented actors, of course. They all have
co-starred with our favorite
P&P (2005) actors in some of their TV/films and stage play projects either more than once (and or with more than a few P&P actors) or multiple times with the same or different P&P actor(s). If you've seen the following
movies (some I've
recommended here for you to check out and watch!) they've done with our
P&P actors either they were co-starring, appearing with a small (but still important roles) and or making a cameo appearances...then, you probably noticed (or perhaps not until now) that they were all in those movies (whether they were made for Television or Feature films) and stage plays frequently co-starring with P&P 05 actors. I thought I'd compiled and list them here as I've been noticing them in all these movies I've seen and it's very interesting that all have co-starred with them not just once, but twice or even a few times or more with some of our favorite P&P actors listed here...kind of like a
six degrees of P&P 05 actors game, where each of these famous actors have a connection with just about everyone of them.
Check out below the familiar names and faces (images included) with a list of films they co-starred/appeared more than once with our P&P (2005) actors...

And there you have it (boredom lead me to this, haha!)...I've attempted a long list here all in one post...phew! Did I miss anyone? I'm sure there's a movie or an actor I forgot to list here, but will add here if I see/noticed more films with familiar/famous actors co-starring with our P&P actors (at least twice or a few times) as soon as I spot them, lol...
Related PostsMovie Recommendations: TV & Films starring P&P actorsMovie Recommendations: Other TV & Films starring P&P actors (part 2)
all, we have a P&P reunion with the main leads Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen along with their director Joe Wright in the upcoming and much anticipated new film adaptation of Anna Karenina. You know, we'll be talking about it a lot here as soon as more news and info is released for that film. You've been forewarned, lol...Also, Keira Knightley has another new film, Seeking a Friend for the end of the World, a non-period drama for a change, with Steve Carell, which will be released on April 20th before AK film. Donald Sutherland has lots of new films including The Hunger Games on March 23rd, the first film of the series adapted into films. Rosamund Pike, once again, has a new film, Wrath of the Titans on March 30th with Sam Worthington (who previously co-starred with Keira in Last Night, last year). Judi Dench has two new films, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel with another P&P co-star Penelope Wilton (who herself has her popular Emmy Award winning series, Downton Abbey's Season 2 premiering in the U.S. this month, January 8th) in May and a new Bond 23 film, Skyfall with Craig Daniel as Bond, which will focused on her character M (so that means will be seeing more of her in this film!) and will be in theaters November 9th. Kelly Reilly has two new films, Flight with Denzel Washington and Edwin Boyd with Scott Speedman (who previously co-starred with Rosamund Pike in last year's Barney's Version). Talulah Riley has a few new films, The Knot, White Frog, and The Liability. Jena Malone has several new films including Lonely Hunter, where she plays a lead role and a TV miniseries, Hatfields & McCoys. Tamzin Merchant has a TV miniseries, The Mystery of Edwin Drood premiering on PBS Masterpiece Classic on April 15th. And Carey Mulligan has The Great Gatsby with Leonardo DiCaprio (who previously co-starred with Judi Dench in J. Edgar last year and Inception with Talulah Riley a year or two before that...) in theaters Christmas day.
