Do Quantum of Solace’s Stana Katic and Mischa Barton look alike, or must we visit an eye doctor? It could be their pronounced jaws and cheekbones, but we think these two could’ve been separated at birth!

Backgrounds and Beginnings: Stana Katic and Mischa Barton
Stana Katic, born on April 26, 1978, in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, is older than Mischa Barton, born on January 24, 1986, in Hammersmith, London, England.
Ethnically, Katic has Serbian roots in Croatia. She describes her heritage as Dalmatian, with family origins in Croatia’s Vrlika and Sinj areas. She is fluent in several languages, including Serbian, and holds U.S. citizenship.
Mischa Barton, on the other hand, has a mixed English and Irish background. Born in the UK to an English father and an Irish mother, Barton moved to the U.S. at five. She identifies closely with her Northern Irish heritage, noting a special connection to the area. Barton holds both British and American nationalities.

Fashion on the Red Carpet: Stana and Mischa’s Distinct Styles
Mischa recently became single and wore a gold Rubin & Chapelle dress to the New York premiere of her new Showtime series, Masters of Sex.
We think she was too much covered up in this outfit, with the long dress and the white sweater. Do you remember the days when she and Rachel Bilson were the “it girls” on and off “The O.C.”?
Since ‘The O.C.’ ended in 2007, Mischa Barton has largely stayed out of the public eye. Many look forward to her making a significant return, particularly in the fashion scene.

Stana Katic: Radiance on the Red Carpet
The statuesque Stana flaunted her legs at the CBGB premiere in Los Angeles in a bright pink Versace mini dress paired with Casadei pointy pumps.
She didn’t wear much jewelry for this look and relied on those carefully placed oversized pins for that oomph. We love her short, wavy locks and mile-long legs, too!
