If you've ever grazed past a shot of "White Collar" actor Matt Bomer in a magazine, on TV or on the Internet (maybe you saw him on Hollywood Crush?) and done a major double take, you're not alone. We, too, think he has an uncanny resemblance to a few other choice attractive actors, namely "Vampire Diaries" bad boy Ian Somerhalder and "Smallville" star Tom Welling.
So, when Matt came into the MTV News offices to chat about the return of his USA series, we just couldn't let him leave without asking him the real question on all of our minds: Are the three of you guys really not related? Just look at those pictures above — it's hard to tell the difference, right? After the jump, check out what Matt had to say about our family tree inquisition!
"We're not related, no," Matt insisted with a laugh. "I mean I've hung out with Ian a couple of times, he's a great guy. I'm very flattered to be in the same photo album as these two. I don't necessarily see the similarities; I think they're in a different echelon, but it's very flattering being included with them." Oh, Matt, your modesty is so charming!
Well, bloodlines or not, we think these guys should star in a movie together and Matt agrees. "Something about triplets," he pitches. "Writers, if you're out there, take note. Something about triplets — me, Ian, Tom." We're fantasizing about it already!
Do you agree that Matt, Tom and Ian look alike? Are there other actors out there who you've also thought were the same person?
