Paul Rudd doppelgangers vie for top honors at Grand Army Plaza look-a-like contest * Brooklyn Paper
Briefly

The 'dedicated' Paul Rudd fan, who runs an X account titled 'Paul Rudd Bot,' told Brooklyn Paper she was inspired by a recent Jeremy Allen White look-alike contest. "Someone said that one of the contestants looked a lot like Paul Rudd, and he should enter a Paul Rudd look-alike contest. So I was like, I haven't seen one happen, so I'm just gonna run one," Devens explained. This inspiration showcases how pop culture can manifest in unique, community-driven events.
While the crowd was on the smaller side, most likely due to the freezing temps, the group of about 15 Paul Rudd fans and his three doppelgangers were very enthusiastic. One of the contestants, Jeremy Levy, an actor in his own right, was dressed as Ant-Man, a fictional character portrayed by Rudd in 'Ant-Man' and most recently in 'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.' He said he's a huge Paul Rudd fan, and that Rudd should be duly celebrated.
Another Paul Rudd clone, Nick Matta from New Rochelle, described Rudd as 'hilarious and extremely handsome.' A few have told Matta that he's Rudd's spitting image. This acknowledgment of Rudd's charisma resonates with fans, highlighting his appealing persona.
