Help! What actress does THIS actress look like? Solved! Kathleen Quinland

[FINFAN]

The actress in the Diet Coke Economy Class commercial is the doppleganger for a more major actress from the late 90's (I think?)

It's driving me nuts. I can "hear" the main actress speaking, see her mannerisms(she was in dramatic stuff, not comedies)...just can't grasp her name or even a tv show or movie name so I can google her. Can't find the name of the actress in the commercial either. I'm going to be up all night trying to figure it out

and it's not Talia Shire, everyone I ask thinks that's who I am thinking, but it isn't

Hmmmm...I like this challenge. My husband laughs at me because I'm always pointing out actors and actresses that look alike.

I'm not sure on this one. I see a tad bit of Alyssa Milano in her face. And just a teeny bit of maybe Winona Ryder but that's a big stretch for me.

Neither of these are doplegangers for the woman in the ad though. I'll keep thinking and see if I can think of anyone else!!

Mary-Louise Parker?

nope...sigh..maybe I am imagining it? I thought maybe Rachel McAdams with short dark hair but she's not the right actress either

 

[Handbag Lady]

Oh, someone is BOUND to think of who is lurking in your head!!! I'll keep thinking.

 

[Handbag Lady]

Kinda looks like that comedian that was plastered all over Las Vegas a decade ago...now what was HER name?

 

[lisaviolet]

or even a tv show or movie name so I can google her

This is NOT good enough. Insert wink.

Think. I need sleep.

What about the one on Law & Order (played Connie - Alana de le Garza)? But that's not a major actress, so back to the drawing board.
