10 Movie Co-Stars Who Shared Iconic Roles

10. Catherine Zeta-Jones And Helen Mirren - Catherine The Great

The Bruce Willis-led action sequel RED 2 features a star studded cast, including Anthony Hopkins, John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, and two Oscar winning actresses: Catherine Zeta-Jones and Helen Mirren.

Zeta-Jones and Mirren share more than an appearance in RED 2 and a golden statue. Both actresses have played the legendary Russian Empress Catherine the Great in a biopic.

Zeta-Jones took on the role in a 1995 TV movie called Catherine the Great, which focused on the leader's love life in her younger years. Mirren appeared in a different Catherine the Great, a 2019 miniseries which focused on the title character's golden years.

Appropriately, Zeta-Jones also plays a Russian in RED 2, portraying a secret agent.
