Zach Galifianakis Dressed Up Like Ernest Hemingway’s Doppelgänger

By Maryann Yin 

An  LA Times portrait of comedic actor Zach Galifianakis bears a striking resemblance to a famous Yousuf Karsh photograph of Ernest Hemingway.

Follow this link to see the photo. When asked about the resemblance, Galifianakis replied: “To Mariel Hemingway, maybe. Not the other one.” In the tweet posted above, writer Edward Champion already predicts Galifianakis could play Hemingway in a movie.

He has plenty of competition. Last summer, Charles Bicht was crowned as the “29th Papa” in the Hemingway Look-Alike Contest. This annual event pits bearded men in a competition celebrating the Nobel Prize winner.
