Today, we welcome new members to the Heck Of A Guy Hall Of Leonard Cohen Resemblance, otherwise known as the Leonard Cohen Lookalikes, Doppelgangers, Twins, Copies, Doubles, & Clones Separated At Birth page.
The folks at TotallyLooksLike.com have made the classic Leonard Cohen matches to Dustin Hoffman, Al Pacino, and Leonard Nimoy that have been previously listed on the Heck Of A Guy site.

The new Cohen clones found at TotallyLooksLike.com include fellow icon, Bob Dylan.

The TotallyLooksLike.com panel also sees a resemblance between Leonard Cohen and Alan Rickman, the actor perhaps best known for his portrayal of Hans Gruber in Die Hard and Severus Snape in the Harry Potter film series.

And, TotallyLooksLike.com has not one but two comparisons of Leonard Cohen to Adam Sandler.

At LeonardCohenForum, Womanfromaroom suggests “young Leonard and young Dustin Hoffman look at least like brothers,” a notion MT Baldy supports with these album covers.
Meanwhile, Climb2Safety posits a resemblance between Cohen and Ron Paul.

At the same site, Actually suggests Anthony Bourdain as a Leonard lookalike.

Actually also offers this composite of Dustin Hoffman (both top photos)1 and Al Pacino (both bottom photos), noting that “… Mr. Cohen always had (and still has) the best nasolabial folds. Period.”
somewhat_nifty, another LeonardCohenForumite, points out that “that Leonard in the 90s is a dead ringer for Arthur Petrelli from Heroes (played by Robert Forster).”

burningviolin is the first, to my knowledge, to offer Telly Savalas as a Cohen doppelganger.

- I had originally misidentified the top left photo as being the bright and shining face of Leonard Cohen when it is actually the radiant visage of Dustin Hoffman. Thanks to Puddingdale (see her comment) for correcting this egregious error. I extend my apologies to Mssrs Cohen and Hoffman for any confusion I may have created and hope this does not hinder either of their promising careers. [↩]
Erm, it might well be that I am blind and misinformed but I am pretty sure (I’d rather say “I know” if I wasn’t so modest – hehe) that Actually’s so-called composite of Cohen, Hoffman and Pacino does not include a pic of Cohen at all. The person top left is an often used pic of Hoffman. (No notable nasolabial folds by the way
).
And hey, finally someone who sees the resemblance between Rickman and Cohen.
Glad I could be of some help.
Well, it only proves DH and LC DO look very much alike.
What about JoHn Cassavetes?
