Here’s a bizarrely specific type of role for a child actor: when Kaley Cuoco was starting out her career in the 1990s, she had a tendency to get cast as a younger version of a famous actress’ character during flashback sequences on popular TV shows. At one point, she played a young Ellen DeGeneres on an episode of Ellen, but two years before that, he also had a bit part playing a younger version of Claire Danes’ character during a flashback on an episode of My So-Called Life.
