18 Times Actors Paid Homage To Their Famous Characters By Re-Creating Their Iconic Outfits
It's fun to re-create the iconic looks from your favorite movies and TV shows, whether you're dressing as your favorite Friends character for Halloween or your favorite '00s rom-com lead for TikTok (as Jennifer Garner's dog did here).
However, the people who have the most fun re-creating these iconic looks are the same people who brought them to life onscreen in the first place.
