Name Those Actors

This Christmas season was one of enlightenment :) While watching the credits of the musical Scrooge I discovered that two of the main characters in this memorable movie from my childhood were more familiar to me than I realized. As I read their names I recognized them from some other movie favorites. I don't know that I would have recognized them just by observing them in the different roles because they are so diverse that it is difficult to recognize they are the same person unless you know. The only reason I made the connection is now that I am somewhat more "grown-up" I pay more attention to things like the names of the actors. I guess if you aren't familiar with the films it won't really be as meaningful to you, but it was kind of an "ah-hah" moment for me. So here are the roles of the two actors:

Jacob Marley (Scrooge) & Obi-Wan Kenobi (Star Wars)



Ebenezer Scrooge (Scrooge) & Daddy Warbucks (Annie) & the older Edward Bloom (Big Fish)



So do YOU know what the actor's names are? :)
