Eighty episodes and four seasons later, the striking Liv and Maddie cast members may have moved on to other projects but we are yet to wrap our heads around the fact that their time on the show is over. It premiered on 19 July 2013 and the last episode aired on 24 March 2017.
The acclaimed American comedy television series plot revolves around identical twin sisters – Liv and Maddie Rooney. For Maddie, there’s nothing better than high school basketball and she wouldn’t be caught in high heels but will always opt for her comfy high tops. Liv, on the other hand, lives and breathes showbiz, she is all about the lights, camera, action and has been living the glitzy life of Hollywood for more than four years. When the TV star returns home, the disparity between the twins becomes very prominent, so much that it was hard to cohabit. Regardless of the different personalities and ambitions that set the two apart, they still share a strong bond which helped them in their endeavors.
Are They Real Twins In Real Life?
Over the years, we have seen identical twins getting us all confused on the set of Hollywood movies and series but Liv and Maddie are not one of them. The two characters were remarkably played by one person – but she had help. Applying a few visual tricks with the help of some extras who can pass as Dove at a glance, the crew was able to put up a good show and make it appear like Liv and Maddie were two different people. Disney Channel was kind enough to share some behind-the-scenes production secrets, revealing 2 body doubles, Emmy Buckner (Liv 2) and Shelby Wulfert (Maddie 2).
So, no, Liv and Maddie were not played by real-life twins. Let’s meet the ‘twins’ and the rest of the Liv and Maddie cast members.
