Holy shit there’s actually a legit answer to this? I thought that was Joffrey in a bonnet lmao

The resemblance is even more pronounced when Joffrey has the same expression!

The comparison goes deeper. Nellie and Joffrey were basically the same character (minus the whole royal drama). Both evil, spoiled brats with rich parents who usually got away with whatever they did. The fact that decades apart and in completely different shows that their actors look strikingly alike is pretty interesting.

I’ll never forget the episode where Nellie had Pa’s head cutoff in the town square, then made Laura go look at it with her.

Not even in my top 10

It's almost like casting directors see those features and think "that's our brat".

Well, that's some near useless information that I truly enjoyed. Thanks!
