Denis Leary knows he looks like Kellyanne Conway and he's not ruling out a biopic

Please let it all be an elaborate prank.

At 7:20 AM on Jan. 31, the powers that be decided to throw us a bone and blissfully point out that Kellyanne Conway and Denis Leary share, like, a whole face.

The resemblance is... uncanny. At the very least it looks like he's one advanced Snapchat filter away from being able to pass as counselor to the president full-time.

The comparison came to Denis's attention, and he seems to have a sense of humor about the whole situation, saying that he's owed an award for his performance.

If only it were that simple: the whole administration is an elaborate, Nathan-Fielder-inspired exercise in rogue character study.

This isn't Denis's first time being told he looks "identical" to another public figure--his entire Twitter bio is dedicated to just those claims.

I guess there must be some level of fame above played-the-Green Goblin you have to achieve before you get to escape being told "you look like that lady everyone dislikes!"

Though he's playing along with the Kellyann Conway digs, Leary has been vocally against Trump, particularly the anti-Muslim executive order.

We hope this shared face can be used for good, or perhaps just a shared gym membership.
