First, I have to say wow, these guys are major hotties . Not only two actors that look alike but three, this must be the guy’s twins fantasy (Or triplets in this case). Funny, when I look at the picture, Timothy Olyphant looks like the exact combination of Shane West and Josh Duhamel. Now lets get to the similarities and differences, all three guys come from different backgrounds, different ages, heights and birthdays, but one thing’s for sure, they kick ass in the movies.
All three guys have played complete bad asses in the movies and on TV. Shane West in Nikita, Josh Duhamel in Las Vegas and Transformers and Timothy Olyphant in The Crazies and Justified. They are hot, they know how to fight and they always get the girl – I’m sold! Who’s my favorite? I’d have to say Shane West, it might be his character in Nikita or the permanent lip pout in every single picture, but he just has that extra dose of bad boy. Who’s your favorite?

Maggie Q has boyfriend!
I feel sorry for him.
I dont know why the actors and actresses from the TV-show which is a screen couple, who have forcibly dating in real life.please!
What?!? Timothy Olyphant’s claim to fame is “Girl Next Door”?
Oh Shutup!
His claims to fame are the excellent “Deadwood” and “Justified”.
C’mon, Timothy Olyphant is famous as Agent 47 in Hitman!
I think Tim and Josh need to do a movie together cast as brothers.Maybe some ass-kickin zombie thing..lol!
Not really seeing Josh in this mix. I think Shane West and Johnathan Rhys Meyers would be a good lookalike comparison.
I still say they are related in some way even if it’s long lost cousins
