CusickGallery.net: Henry Ian Cusick

These doppelgangers have long been mistaken for each other, both in photos and onscreen.

@JamesCallis was beloved as Dr. Gaius Baltar on Battlestar Galactica, where he appeared in 73 episodes from 2004-2009. Ian was beloved as Desmond Hume in 74 episodes of Lost, from 2005-2010. The cases of mistaken identity onscreen have been plentiful.

But it hasn’t always been James and Ian…

Needless to say, we were excited to see they were on set together, and we all really appreciate the photo. Next, to see if they appear together onscreen during this MacGyver episode. Curiosity is sparked: brothers? cousins? evil twin? Sorry to hear that it might be as late as April before we know. Fingers are crossed globally for a January premiere.
