Ladies Who Look Like Anna Friel

by LiRa

Anna Friel Pigeon

Pushing Daisies would have to the very first time I learned who Anna Friel is. I’ve never seen her movie, Goal! and it had been quite popular among my friends. Since I’m not from the UK, I wasn’t familiar with Brookside, the drama series where she became a household name in Europe.When I first saw the previews of the show last year, I thought that the program starred Zooey Deschanel; she even sounded and moved like her. And this made me look forward to the show more because I like Zooey Deschanel.

I’m quite sure I’m not the only one who sees the resemblance between Anna and Zooey. As the show went on, other fans have been comparing her physical appearance to these actresses:

When Anna had shorter hair, I’m told she reminds someone of a young Ally Sheedy:

Anna also slightly resembles Sara Groves, a Christian Music Artist (photo to the right), who I see to be someone who’s also similar in looks as Evangeline Lilly. Some of my friends think Anna looks like Eve, too…but I fail to see the resemblance. Yet if you scroll down this site, they do think think Eve and Anna are look-a-likes.

This younger picture of Faye Dunaway reminds me a bit of Anna, too.

Does Anna resemble any of these actresses or do you have another face in mind? Does having a lot of look-a-likes makes her beauty pretty common? What do you think?

About Pushing Daisies

As its teasers say, Pushing Daisies is "nothing like you've seen on television". Besides being visually stimulating and audibly captivating, the story behind this whimsical TV series from ABC, is one that seems to jump out pages of a fairy tale. Created by Bryan Fuller, Pushing Daisies is hailed by critics as a commendable risk that may actually pay off. It has romance, tragedy, comedy, mystery and of course, lest we forget, pies…lots and lots of it.
