4 Doppelgängers Today

I track 9,188 doppelgängers out of 21,283 people in my custom software, specializing in look alikes who were born in the same week in history. Public figures are always born within a few days of another public figure who looks just like them. Our storyline requires two people to provide visual redundancy for each role. These people should look more different!
