8 More Actors Who Didn't Know They Were Being Weirdly Typecast
5. Rachel McAdams Loves Time Travellers
It goes without saying that people tend to have "a type" when it comes to their romantic partners. Whether that's a physical trait or personality features, you're drawn to similar people for a reason.
And the same clearly goes for characters played by Rachel McAdams in movies. But in her case, it's not brown hair or blue eyes that she goes for. It's not a good job or a kind soul. It's not good conversation or a good physique even... It's the ability to time travel.
You'd think that would be horribly limiting, but McAdams has so far managed to play the romantic interest to FOUR separate time travelling characters, in The Time Traveler's Wife (opposite Eric Bana), Midnight In Paris (with Owen Wilson), in About Time (as Domhnall Gleeson's wife) and in Doctor Strange (as Benedict Cumberbatch's ex).
It's such a strangely specific one that you have to think it SURELY can't be accidental.
