David Thewlis has revealed that he is constantly mistaken for Rhys Ifans in the UK.
Thewlis, who lives with girlfriend Anna Friel and daughter Gracie in LA, said he is happier across the pond because he does not have to handle questions intended for the Notting Hill star.
He told Total Film: "In the UK people would ask me twice a week what Julia Roberts is like; I bet now they'd be going on about Sienna [Miller]."
Thewlis also revealed that he was happy to have a small role in 2006 movie Basic Instinct 2 because he had heard that Sharon Stone was a "nightmare" on set.
