9 Actors Who Were Replaced in the Film Without Us Even Noticing

Spotting new actors in films or TV series is usually simple, but there are times when no one pays attention to changes in the cast. This trend is more prominent in sequels and spinoffs, but it does happen in solo movies as well.

Let’s look at some of the movies and TV shows that replaced one actor with another, and we didn’t even notice.

Richard Bremmer – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Along with Harry, Ron, and Hermione, the evil Lord Voldemort appeared in one form or another in seven out of eight films about the boy wizard. Ralph Fiennes joined the cast only in the fourth film, and at the beginning, the sinister warlock was played by a little-known British actor Richard Bremmer.

Hugo Weaving – Avengers: Infinity War

One of the first villains of the MCU was the Red Skull. In 2011, he was played by the elven king from The Lord of the Rings – Hugo Weaving, and in the 2018 Avengers movie, we saw Ross Marquand, who also played Aaron in The Walking Dead.

Paul Walker – Fast and the Furious 7

When the star of the “Fast and the Furious” franchise, Paul Walker, died tragically in 2013, everyone thought that was the end of it. But Paul’s brothers, Cody and Caleb Walkers, stepped in to finish shooting the seventh movie. Of course, the visual effects specialists helped too.
