10 More Actors You Didn't Know Played The Same Character In Different Movies

From one Lennon to another, here's an actor who took it upon himself to join the dots between two characters from two separate Christopher Nolan entries and you can't exactly fault his logic, to be honest.

Despite the iconic filmmaker never explicitly saying so or even visually alluding to the fact over the course of both Memento and The Dark Knight Rises, actor Thomas Lennon is convinced that he is actually playing the same role in both of those Nolan-helmed features.

Speaking to HuffPost Entertainment around the time of the latter film's release, Lennon would confess:

"Basically, I guess -- I kinda of think it's the same character from "Memento." The doctor who's testing Sammy Jankis in that movie. I like to think I'm exactly the same doctor and it's all happening inside Guy Pearce's mind."

He would later go on to admit that "whether or not that's true is probably for Nolan to say", but it does make for an interesting theory as to how Nolan's bombastic flicks are all connected as part of an unofficial Nolan-verse. It also remains to be seen whether this doc will be along for another high-octane ride in the not too distant future...
