weird casting of Billie Jean and Binx


Anyone else find it really weird that they cast an actor and actress who weren’t related but had the same last name to play a brother and sister?

It was only recently that I found out they weren't related. Go figure?

These neat coincidences sometimes happen. Another instance: despite playing father and son in The Great Debaters, Forest Whitaker and Denzel Whitaker are not related.

No

it was a slight let down at the moment to learn that they weren't brother and sister
