The little girl hilariously resembles famous actor Woody Harrelson

A mom in Northern Ireland tweeted an adorable picture of her nine-month-old daughter along with her celebrity doppelganger—and True Detective star—Woody Harrelson. Harrelson saw the now-viral photo and responded to the comparison in the sweetest way.

Mom Dani Grier Mulvenna posted the snap of daughter Cora next to a photo of Harrelson, both with open mouths and toothy smiles. “Ok but how does our daughter look like Woody [Harrelson],” Mulvenna wrote. To her delight, the Zombieland actor wrote back with a poem called “Ode to Cora.”

 

The 61-year-old posted her tweet on his social media, writing: “You’re an adorable child / Flattered to be compared / You have a wonderful smile / I just wish I had your hair @danigriermulvenna.”

In a comment on The Hunger Games actor’s Instagram post, Mulvenna wrote, “You’ve made our day can’t wait to show her this when she’s older, you have another fan for life xxx.” She also shared his poem on her Twitter feed. “It’s not every day Woody [Harrelson] writes your daughter a poem,” she wrote, adding a happy-tears emoji.

Harrelson rose to fame after his character, Woody Boyd, appeared on the beloved sitcom Cheers and has gone on to star in a slew of films. But his family, he says, is the most important thing in his life. He married his second wife, Laura Louie, in 2008. The couple has three daughters together—Deni, Zoe, and Makani—who they’ve raised mostly out of the Hollywood spotlight in Maui, Hawaii.

After Mulvenna’s original tweet went viral, she shared another pic of the sweet baby girl looking more like herself and less like the actor. “Cora says, thank you all so much for the likes and retweets and also that she doesn’t always look like Woody [Harrelson], it’s just that when she does… she really really does xxx,” Mulvenna said.
