I’m watching Jumanji on cable and just noticed that Jonathan Hyde plays two roles, one as Robin Williams characters’ father and another as the British big game hunter from the game world.
First time I noticed this detail! What are some other movies that do this? Obviously, there’s Split which is a recent example but I find it more interesting when it’s not as obvious.

also Brett McKenzie played Figwit and Lindir (I had to look these names up; he’s just an extra but also one of the guys from Flight of the Conchords).
Does Face/Off count. I mean it could get in on a technicality. Nothing better than Travolta pretending to be Nicholas Cage, and Nicholas Cage being well the same.
