​How does he feel about getting confused with Strong? Tucci shared, "I'm very flattered. ... I just go, 'Thank you very much.' "

​The moderator of the panel then joked, "All attractive bald men do not look alike, folks."

​Tucci replied, "Apparently, we do."

​Strong also shared similar experiences as Tucci and articulated his thoughts in an interview with BBC's The One Show in 2025. "We met, actually, and I had to confess to him that somebody once asked me to sign a poster because they thought I was him, and she wouldn't take no for an answer. So, I just signed it as him."

​"And he, when we met, told me he's done the same. So I don't know why we get mistaken for each other," Strong recalled.
