    I hate hate hate this

    Just cast a different actor to play the same character. Audiences will figure out who it's supposed to be. For instance, Doctor Sleep. It's not a great movie at all, but it's kinda fun and there's cool moments. Jack Torrance from The Shining reappears in it, several times, played entirely by a different actor than Jack Nicholson and the actor isn't even doing a precise Nicholson impression. But it's still obvious who it is.

    Just do that, have confidence enough to use different actors play the same characters.

      what's funny is that it's not even the same character, it's a different android who happens to have the same face. literally no reason to do this other than vapid nostalgia
