I'm afraid I can never see her as other than Emily/ Amanda :(


I admit Revenge is the first time I saw this very pretty actress name Emily VanCamp, and I like Revenge a LOT and the characters storyline/ personalities stick with me. I'm afraid I won't be able to see her acting anywehere else without thinking of Emily :(

I've posted this in another topic too, but isn't this kind of dangerous for an actor? To be associated with a role?

Whenever I see George Clooney or Julianne Moore I see George Clooney and Julianne Moore, idk if that's good or bad, well same goes with Meryl Streep, Nicholas Cage and other senior faces. I think it's because their brand as an actor overshadow their character. Or smn like Jake G or Anne H who are much younger but already have so many great movies on their portfolio I can't help but noticing "Oh! That's Jake, oh that's Anne. Owh are they on screen together again?"

But quite the contrary, in CA:TWS when I saw Agent 13 I kept thinking I saw Emily Thorne on the screen!! Just like whenever I see Imelda Staunton anywhere I thought of Umbridge from HP.

How do I remedy this?! Any suggestion??

I think that why she was cast as Agent 13. Both characters are a lot alike.

I used to watch Everwood with her. And I also thought, she always will be Amy Abbott, but that's ok.
Same for Revenge as Emily/Amanda. And it is not a bad thing

Nah you'll be right, I watched her on Brothers and Sisters and had no trouble transferring to Revenge.

I do the exact same thing, but I like it, it's like Revenge is living on after its cancellation. I'm excited to see Captain America Civil War just so I can see Emily in it. I hope she has a bigger part that the second Captain America
