"You weren't affected by all the stuff like a lot of people who never come in before so that was a big advantage," he added. "I think the disadvantage is I remember earlier on as an actor where you're trying to create your own identity and they're all saying, 'Oh, that looks just like your father. Oh my God, you sound just like your father.' Well thank you very much.
While the comments from others of Michael Douglas resembling his father were usually meant as a compliment, the Academy Award winner said it did come with its own set of challenges for him when it came to finding his own identity as an actor.
